Investment Overview


Deal Sourcing
Marketed by a broker for more than one year with a seller that had unrealistic pricing expectations, we were able to negotiate directly with the seller and provided certainty of closure in exchange for optimal pricing

Property Type
175 unit apartment

Year Built
1964

Occupancy at Acquisition
100%

Location
Located 10 miles northeast of Downtown Sacramento in the Arden/Arcade submarket

Attractive Opportunity
The property had been owned by an out-of-town individual for almost 30 years and had been neglected. The in-place rents were 30% below market and there was also the opportunity to add RUBS

 

Value-Add Strategy


CapEx Requirements
Exterior capital of $1.4 million has been spent including new roofs, exterior painting of all buildings, pool in-fill, landscaping and irrigation upgrades, entrance gate and carport repairs

Anticipated Hold/Actual Hold
Underwritten hold period of five years but anticipate to sell in two years

Added Amenities
BBQ and picnic space added

Additional Revenue Sources
RUBS have been implemented for all tenants

 
 

Rent Strategy
Rents were underwritten at 30% below market but trade out rents are now being achieved 70% above in-place rents at acquisition. 40% of the units have achieved market rent in the first 18 months of ownership.

ESG Opportunities
Outdoor amenities, EV charging, energy efficient appliances, LED lighting and low VOC paint and flooring
