Upbeat news about job growth in the Tucson area is fueling optimism by investors in the multifamily market.
Several complexes have sold in recent months, such as the Coronado Villas, a 432-unit property at 9225 E. Tanque Verde Road.
Senior Managing Director Art Wadlund and Associate Director Clint Wadlund of Berkadiaβs Tucson office completed the $43 million sale.
The seller was Prime Residential, based in San Francisco, and the buyer was Oregon-based Tokola Properties.
βTokola Properties was looking to purchase a quality property in Arizona,β Wadlund said. βWith apartment occupancy increasing and job growth accelerating in the Tucson area, the buyer recognized the opportunity Coronado Villas presented to be located within a growing multifamily market.β
Built in 1994, Coronado Villas has one-, two- and three-bedroom units featuring a washer/dryer, double-sided wood burning fireplaces and vaulted ceilings in select units. Community amenities include a fitness center, three swimming pools and spas and a clubhouse. Saguaro National Park East is situated four miles from the property.
