CHICAGO—Multifamily properties in suburban Chicago, including those that still need some renovations to maximize value, are getting more looks from investors. Canyon Partners Real Estate LLC, for example, through its Canyon Multifamily Impact Fund,has just expanded its suburban Chicago holdings by purchasing Parkway Commons in Carol Stream.
The 384-unit apartment community sits adjacent to Preserve at Carol Stream, a 285-unit apartment community that the CMIF acquired last September. The new owners say they will combine the properties to create a 669-unit community and enhance services to the residents. The price was not disclosed.
Los Angeles-based Canyon Partners and Citi Community Capital established CMIF as a joint venture in May 2013 to provide higher-quality housing in underserved communities across the US. It now owns 2,009 units in the Chicago-area and 336 units in the Los Angeles metro region area, and is also looking to buy similar properties in Florida.
