The Depot

We are proud to announce the acquisition of The Depot, a best‑in‑class mixed‑use community located at 18 & 26 S. Bedford Street in downtown Madison, a transaction we were honored to broker and participate in as one of the principals, alongside a select group of valued partners. Positioned just steps from UW–Madison and within walking distance of the State Capitol, State Street, and the city’s major cultural and employment anchors, The Depot represents a rare opportunity to secure a high‑performing asset in one of Wisconsin’s most dynamic urban corridors.

The Depot is an 83‑unit, 103‑bed mid‑rise community built in 2010, featuring a strong mix of studio, one‑bedroom, and two‑bedroom layouts, many with dens and additional half baths. The property includes 12,579 SF of ground‑floor commercial space, anchored by CVS Pharmacy, providing stable, long‑term income.


Residents benefit from a robust amenity package, including controlled access, underground parking, EV chargers, indoor bike storage, a fitness center, additional storage, and a rooftop terrace with Capitol views. Units feature solid surface kitchens with in‑unit laundry, hardwood flooring, balconies, and large closets.

The Depot sits in a high‑demand district driven by UW–Madison’s 52,000‑student enrollment, limited on‑campus housing, and a thriving downtown economy supported by education, healthcare, biotechnology, government, and technology. The Depot will serve as a flagship asset as we continue to expand our presence in Madison’s most vibrant neighborhoods.

We are also seeking investors interested in building retail buildings for fast‑service restaurants for top‑quality franchise operators looking for an expansion partner. Sites have already been identified.

In addition, we have several on‑ and off‑market opportunities that can satisfy your 1031 tax‑deferred exchange requirements. Activity is strong, and we’re seeing motivated sellers as well as qualified buyers moving quickly.

If you’re considering selling or investing, let’s connect and review the options that best align with your timeline and investment strategy.

Thanks for being part of our journey. Whether you’re a longtime client or new to Baehr Inc., I appreciate your trust and partnership.

Baehron Lofts



We have been fortunate to expand our footprint in Downtown Appleton with Baehron Lofts, located at 217 S Badger Ave, a 20-unit apartment building converted from the original Boldt Construction headquarters. These units feature spacious lofts with 20’ ceilings, exposed brick and concrete. Capable for short and long term housing!

The Baehron on College


Mixed-use facility at 200 W College Ave, right at the major intersection of College and Appleton Avenue. This iconic building features 4 fenestrations; glass, stainless steel, granite and marble chips. It is home to JP Morgan Chase Bank on part of the main level and now features the newly opened Vault 202 Brewery. A craft brewery built inside the original bank vault of the former First National Bank.

Vault 202 is a stunning blend of history and hospitality, offering a unique experience in the heart of Appleton’s entertainment district. A district that features 60+ distinctive shops, 50+ casual, fine dining, and ethnic restaurants, nearly 30 pubs, clubs, and live music venues.

The second through fourth floors feature luxury apartments with fantastic views, and the ability for both short and long-term living.
