Private investor Dick Berry, also based in Tempe, has latched onto a holding in a suburb, where vacancy is about 7%, slightly above that recorded for the entire Valley. Tuscany at Chandler Apartments is located at 625 N. Alma School Rd. It is situated midway between Ray Road and Chandler Boulevard and two miles from the Price Freeway section of Loop 101.
