Phoenix, AZ - ABI Multifamily, a dedicated multifamily brokerage and advisory services firm has announced the $19M+ sale of The Hawthorne Condominiums in Phoenix, AZ. The Hawthorne is a former apartment community that was originally built in 1996 and condo converted in 2005. The bulk sale consisted of 182 condominium units, out of 276 total units. The $19,110,000 purchase price for the 182 units reflects a per unit price of $105,000.
This purchase is the first in the Phoenix Valley for the San Francisco Bay area buyer. The buyer will continue to operate the property as a rental community, with the possibility of selling off individual units in the future, as the individual for sale condo market continues to prosper since the downturn.
“For the buyer, The Hawthorne checked all the boxes. Occupancy at the property was consistently north of 95% and rent collections were strong, with the opportunity to further raise them through additional renovations. The Midtown location is a desired submarket that has seen large capital investments in recent years. The 1996 build and 2005 condo converted property is considered an “A” class luxury community,” according Doug Lazovick, Partner at ABI Multifamily.
