CHANDLER, AZ-A slower condo conversion market has spurred local developer Mark-Taylor Residential Inc. to sell the 352-unit San Palacio Apartments. The two-year-old complex has sold for $58 million to a San Diego buyer, who’s working to expand its local footprint.

“Mark-Taylor was going to convert San Palacio and had started the process for conversion,” explains Sean Cunningham, vice chairman for CB Richard Ellis’ Phoenix office. By the time the administrative process was completed for the 92%-leased complex, the condo market had slowed so Mark-Taylor decided to sell the 2255 W. Germann Rd. property as an operating asset, according to Cunningham, who teamed with CBRE vice chairman Tyler Anderson and first vice president Jack Hannum to steer the sale.
