California investors continue to flood into the Phoenix multifamily market. In one of the latest deals, Los Angeles-based Ezralow Co. has acquired a 200-unit apartment community in Paradise Valley for $56 million from Olympus Property, an investor based in Fort Worh, Texas.
Located at 4242 East Cactus Road, Cactus Forty-2 is a class-A apartment community developed in 2014. It has a mix of studio, one and two bedroom units with mountain views of Phoenix, and it features a pool and spa, outdoor kitchen, fireplace, fitness center, clubhouse, pet park, covered parking and gated access. The interior units have high-end finishes like granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, private balconies and in-unit washer dryers.
