Location Details
Developed in 2021, 207 East Apartments is in Pierce County about 8 miles east of Downtown Tacoma. Edgewood is positioned between I-5 and Highway 167, the region’s two major thoroughfares. The county boasts a thriving economy anchored by Joint Base Lewis McChord, CHI Franciscan Health, MultiCare Health System and the Port of Tacoma.
Developed in 2020, Helm is adjacent to I-5 in South Everett and is strategically located at a pivot-point location in South Everett near Mill Creek. Residents have easy access to Everett’s Aerospace Corridor, anchored by Boeing, Bothell’s biotechnology corridor, as well as the technology employment hubs in Seattle and Eastside.
Both properties will be managed by Security Properties Residential, the affiliated property management firm of Security Properties.
Davis Vaughn, senior director at Security Properties, noted in prepared remarks the new additions were an ideal fit, as the firm has been investing in higher quality, newer assets in secondary locations that have been historically undersupplied. The firm’s newest acquisition expands Security Properties’ portfolio to more than 131 assets totaling more than 27,553 apartment units, including 7,850 units in the Puget Sound region.
