TODAY'S DEALS: Marcus & Millichap Represents Buyer and Seller in $43.5M Sale
Marcus & Millichap Real Estate Investment Services brokered the sale of The Bluffs; and Northmarq Capital arranged a $30 million Freddie Mac mortgage.
Junction City, Kan.—Marcus & Millichap Real Estate Investment Services brokered the sale of The Bluffs, a 602-unit, 563,236-square foot apartment complex located in Junction City adjacent to Fort Riley, a United States Army post. The sales price of $43,575,000 represents $72,383 per unit and $77 per square foot. The cap rate was 7.09 percent.
Alex Blagojevich, a senior associate in the Tampa, Fla. office of Marcus & Millichap, David Gaines, an associate vice president in the firm’s Chicago Downtown office, and Richard “Andy” Glinski and Jacob Steele, senior associates in Marcus & Millichap’s Denver office, represented the seller, The Bluffs LLC. Blagojevich, Gaines, Glinski and Steele also represented the buyer, Colorado-based Prescott Facility LLC. Adam Christofferson, first vice president, is Marcus & Millichap’s broker of record in Kansas.
“Fort Riley’s military population has more than doubled since 2006,” says Blagojevich. “The Bluffs is one of a very few apartment complexes in the area built to handle the increase.”
“Given the area’s limited stock, The Bluffs is well positioned to capture the housing demand of Fort Riley’s soldiers,” adds Gaines. “The military barracks were not built to handle this kind of growth.”
Constructed in 2009 at 1810 Caroline Ave. in Junction City, the property is 98 percent leased.
The Bluffs features one-, two- and three-bedroom apartments with high-speed data-line connections, washers and dryers, nine-foot ceilings and private patio or balcony. Community amenities include a swimming pool, fitness center, basketball court, game room, lounge, hot tub, home theater, walking trails, business center and storm shelters.
