Built in the early 1980’s, Birmingham Woods comprises seven residential buildings and consists entirely of three-bedroom/one-bathroom apartments. Residents have access to both tuck-under and detached garage stalls.  The property is situated close to downtown, parks and recreation centers, churches, as well as schools such as Metro State and St. Paul College.

Mox Gunderson, Dan Linnell, Josh Talberg and Evan Miller, investment specialists in Marcus & Millichap’s Minneapolis office, had the exclusive listing to market the property on behalf of the seller.  The buyer, a private investor, was also secured and represented by the listing team.

“This asset attracted various types of investors that were drawn from both Saint Paul and the greater Twin Cities metro area. The multiple offers were primarily motivated through attractive agency debt and exchange buyers, ultimately closing at $83,036 per unit,” Miller said in prepared remarks.
