VANCOUVER-The recovery of the multifamily market continues to gain steam, this time with the sale of Orchard Pointe Apartments in Vancouver, WA. Investco sells the 388-unit property to Holland Residential for $31.25 million or $80.541 per unit.

CB Richard Ellis represented Investco in the sale. “The property offered a winning combination—the ability to add value with unit upgrades, high quality construction and an attractive price per unit,” explains Jon Hallgrimson, who marketed the property for the seller with colleagues Frank Bosl, Kirk Taylor, Ann Blume and Graham Taylor.

“Holland, which invests nationally but is based in Vancouver, anticipates significant rental growth in the local submarket,” Bosl adds. Orchard Pointe offers a garden court design with two and three-story buildings. Outstanding community amenities include a fitness center, two pools, covered parking, playground, tanning beds and an off-leash do park. The 33-acre Orchards Community Park is nearby and features walking trails, open lawn and play areas. A variety of employers, from retail to high tech are in the immediate area, along with easy freeway access.

“The Portland/Vancouver market has finally turned the corner and is once again seeing great potential,” Taylor explains.
