DEAL WATCH: TruAmerica buys Las Vegas apartments

TruAmerica buys Las Vegas apartments

TruAmerica Multifamily has increased its footprint in some of the strongest multifamily markets in the United States after closing last week on garden-style communities in Las Vegas; Tampa, Florida; and Salt Lake City, Utah, in three separate transactions totaling $209 million.

Combined, the properties, total nearly 1,000 apartment homes and increases the Los Angeles-based value add multifamily investment firm’s portfolio to more than 45,000 units.

Florida, Nevada and Utah, which represent approximately 25 percent of TruAmerica’s portfolio, are among the most fundamentally sound multifamily markets in the U.S. exhibiting solid wage, population and employment growth, according to Co-Chief Investment Officer Matthew Ferrari. “Much of this is due in large part to the migration of corporations and families that follow them to these lower-cost-of-living states.”

The three properties, built between 1985 and 1995 represent an attractive value-add opportunity as each will benefit from TruAmerica’s improvements to the interiors, exteriors and amenity spaces.

Vida is a 252-unit garden style community on 4.64 acres at 560 Hacienda Avenue. Located in one of the city’s preferred residential areas, Vida’s southwest submarket has added nearly 60,000 new residents since 2010, with many residents opting to rent versus buy due to surging home prices.

“Renting remains especially affordable compared to owning a home in Las Vegas,” said TruAmerica Senior Director Zach Rivas, who oversees TruAmerica’s acquisition efforts in the market. “The average rent produces a comparably low average rent-to-income ratio of less than 25 percent resulting in a higher propensity for residents to rent.”

TruAmerica Multifamily is a vertically integrated, value-add multifamily investment firm based in Los Angeles. Since its founding in 2013 by Robert Hart, TruAmerica has been one of the country’s most active multifamily investors and manages a portfolio of approximately 46,000 units across prime locations throughout California, Washington, Oregon, Colorado, Arizona, Nevada, Utah, Maryland, Florida, Georgia, North Carolina, Massachusetts, Tennessee and Texas.
