New Jersey apartment community trades

MORRISTOWN – JLL Capital Markets announced today that it closed on the sale of Addison at Princeton Meadows, a 440-unit, garden-style multi-housing community located in Plainsboro, New Jersey.

JLL worked on behalf of the seller, a joint venture between the real estate business within Goldman Sachs Asset Management and Kushner Real Estate Group.

Built in 1979, Addison at Princeton Meadows consists of studio, one- and two-bedroom apartment homes across 28, two-story buildings. The majority of units have undergone recent renovations and include stainless steel appliances, updated backsplash and countertops, hard flooring, patios/balconies and in-unit washers and dryers. Community amenities include an outdoor swimming pool with fire pit, tennis and basketball courts, dog park, fitness center, children’s playground and a BBQ and picnic area. Additionally, the community is fully approved for the construction of a state-of-the-art clubhouse, which will house a new fitness center and lounge for residents.

Located at 2821 Pheasant Hollow Dr., Addison at Princeton Meadows is in the Princeton submarket and is adjacent to an 18-hole golf course, The Meadows at Middlesex. The property is situated just minutes from downtown Princeton’s shops, restaurants and top-tier schools, which includes the prestigious Princeton University. The community is less than three miles from the Route 1 corridor, one of the strongest commercial corridors in the state, and is also less than five miles from the Princeton Junction train station, providing access to New York Penn Station or Philadelphia in less than one hour.

The JLL Capital Markets Investment Sales and Advisory team representing the seller was led by Senior Managing Directors Jose Cruz, Steve Simonelli and Michael Oliver and Director Elizabeth DeVesty.

“The Addison provided investors with the opportunity to acquire a quality multi-housing asset in a strong institutionally owned submarket with significant rental upside,” stated Cruz.

“We were fortunate to partner with Goldman Sachs on the Addison as they were consummate professionals through acquisition, asset management and disposition.  Additionally, JLL did an incredible job in helping us successfully sell the asset in a very difficult capital markets environment,” stated Jonathan Kushner, President of Kushner Real Estate Group.

SAN FRANCISCO – JLL Capital Markets announced today that it closed on the sales of three value-add, garden-style multi-housing assets in Silicon Valley, including the 72-unit Appletree in Campbell, California, the 68-unit Vista Pointe and 50-unit Cedartree in Santa Clara, California, for a total of approximately $70 million.

JLL worked on behalf of the private seller and procured three unique buyers for the portfolio.

The portfolio contains a desirable unit mix with 37% one-bedroom units that average 731 square feet and 63% two-bedroom units that average 1,004 square feet. Each of the three assets present the opportunity for value-add renovations, with increased rent potential.

The three assets are within a seven-mile radius of each other and are situated near US 101, I-880 and I-280, providing immediate access to the entire Bay Area. Residents of the portfolio will also enjoy access to the continually expanding public transit system of the Bay Area, including Cal-train, the most accessible form of public transportation.

The JLL Capital Markets Investment Sales and Advisory team representing the seller was led by Senior Managing Directors Ryan Wagner, Brandon Geraldo and Matt Kroger.

“Amidst market fluctuations and choppy debt markets, our extensive process proved that well-priced and high-quality multi-housing assets still have a large investor audience with ample liquidity,” according to Ryan Wagner. “Institutional core funds are still waiting for more data points to emerge to become more active, while middle-market and private-equity investors have been the most active players in the last six to nine months.”

MINNEAPOLIS – JLL Capital Markets announced today that it has closed the $3.65 million sale of Irving School Apartments, a historic, 44-unit, 1895-built multi-housing community located in Duluth, Minnesota.

High Point Holdings L.L.C. acquired the asset.

Built in 1895, Irving School Apartments was originally developed as a school and went through various phases before being placed on Minnesota’s National Register of Historic Places and converted to apartments in 1978. The community includes expansive studio, one-, two- and three-bedroom units, averaging 980 square feet in size. The apartments also feature over 3-foot ceilings, lofted units, unique brick, stone and timber accents, renovated kitchens and bathrooms, large walk-in closets and interior atriums in select units. The community offers an outdoor patio, on-site laundry, on-site management and controlled access entry.

Situated at 101 N 56th Ave W, the property is distinctly known for its tall chimney that shadows over 35W on the drive into Duluth. Some residential homes and Irving Park lie just to the south of the property, and the large ST Paper facility and the St. Louis River sit to the east. In addition to short commutes to Downtown Duluth, Canal Park and more, residents have immediate access to Lincoln Park, which is quickly becoming the hottest retail corridor in Duluth.

The JLL Capital Markets Investment Sales and Advisory team representing the seller, Sherman Associates, was led by Director Devon Dvorak, Managing Directors Mox Gunderson, Dan Linnell and Josh Talberg and Senior Director Adam Haydon.

“Irving School Apartments was a great opportunity for investors to add to their portfolios in Duluth. There have been very few recent listings in Duluth, so the turnout was fantastic,” said Dvorak. “We held numerous tours, which resulted in multiple rounds of bidding and multiple offers above the list price. Duluth is currently one of the top-performing multi-housing markets in the state, so there is high demand from investors. Occupancies are high and rent growth is strong.”

DENVER – JLL Capital Markets announced today that it has arranged $55.18 million cashout refinancing for The Iris, a 276-unit, garden-style apartment complex in the Denver suburb of Arvada, Colorado.

Additionally, residents benefit from the broad variety of walkable amenities, entertainment, dining and retail options within the historical district of Ode Town Arvada.

“Tony and William started working with us on this refinancing over seven months ago, and from the very beginning it was clear that they knew every possible lever we could pull in order to maximize proceeds and get the deal closer amidst this extremely challenging lending environment. From the very beginning we set a target and with their help we were able to surpass that target. We could not be more thankful for their help and hard work on this transaction!” said Terrance Doyle, founder of VareCo.

The JLL Capital Markets Debt Advisory team was led by Managing Director Tony Nargi and Director William Haass.

“VareCo has done an absolutely tremendous job renovating this asset with one of the best interior unit renovations on a 70’s-built deal in all of Denver. Fannie Mae provided an excellent execution with 35-year amortization loan sizing and full-term, interest-only and sub-5% fixed-rate on a cash out refinance.  JLL is thrilled to be involved in this financing with an excellent local owner and operator in VareCo,” said Nargi.

Agency/GSE lending and loan servicing are performed by JLL Real Estate Capital, LLC, a wholly owned indirect subsidiary of Jones Lang LaSalle Incorporated.
