The price more than tripled since the asset last traded a decade ago.

Berkadia helped Bascom arrange the acquisition financing. The borrower received a $21.1 million loan funded by Rialto Capital Management, Yardi Matrix data shows.
The property last traded a decade ago, according to Yardi Matrix, when the current seller acquired it for $8 million, or $86,021 per unit. This time, the price was more than three times higher: $266,129 per unit.
The new owner has appointed Apartment Management Consultants as property manager. AMC will also head planned interior upgrades.
