HUNTINGTON BEACH, CA—In a region where many multifamily owners held onto properties for a long time before selling, there's now a huge opportunity in renovating class-B properties to appeal to people seeking the new Huntington Beach lifestyle, IPA executive director Stewart Weston and Marcus & Millichap's first VP investments Joe Berkson and tell GlobeSt.com. As we recently reported, the two executives, along with IPA senior directors Christopher Zorbas and Alexander Garcia, Jr., director David Sperling and associate director John Montakab, recently represented the seller and procured buyer Saratoga Capital Inc. for the sale of Casa Monterrey, a 208-unit apartment community here. The $60.25-million sales price equates to nearly $290,000 per unit. A true generational investment opportunity, the asset had been owned and operated by a local family office since 1974.
