4D Development Wins Notes on 199 Units

LOS ANGELES-Locally based 4D Investment and Development has closed escrow on a portfolio of notes secured by four apartment buildings totaling 199 units in the Koreatown section of Los Angeles. The transaction was executed through Wells Fargo as special servicer on notes originated by Wachovia Bank, with Brent Sprenkle and Vince Norris of the Los Angeles offices of Hendricks & Partners executing the sale on behalf of Wells Fargo.

Norris and Sprenkle note that the deal garnered 203 executed confidentiality agreements and 29 offers for the portfolio of buildings, which were constructed between 1926 and 1930. The Hendricks brokers point out that, although the buildings are more than 80 years old, they were exempt from local rent control because of significant renovations made to them during the last 20 years.
