Tucson Real Estate: Apartment complex rebirth sign of housing demand
- Updated
Montclair Apartments was vacant during housing crisis.
A midtown apartment complex that sat vacant and boarded up during the housing crisis is now in the hands of new owners.
Montclair Apartments, a 61-unit complex, recently sold to investors for $2.4 million.
After the housing crisis, many low-income workers who lived in apartments around town left the area, forcing complexes such as Montclair to close, a 2011 Star analysis showed.
