Garrett Blair liked thisGarrett Blair liked thisTailwind Investment Group is pleased to announce the acquisition of California Place Apartments, a 211-unit garden-style community in Sacramento, situated on the border of Elk Grove. California Place was acquired at a basis well below replacement cost in a submarket that continues to exhibit strong renter demand and limited new supply. The property also benefits from its location directly across from Kaiser Permanente South Sacramento Medical Center, a major regional healthcare campus employing more than 2,000 professionals. The business plan centers on exterior improvements, common area upgrades, and light interior renovations, while restricting a portion of units through a CMFA regulatory agreement to preserve affordability for working families in the community. At above 94% occupancy at close, the asset provides immediate cash flow with meaningful upside as we execute on the value-add program. Closing in mid-2026 alongside a companion acquisition in Sacramento, California Place brings Tailwind's Sacramento footprint to 419 units and reinforces our focus on workforce housing in supply-constrained Western markets. We are actively acquiring Multifamily assets across the Western U.S., please reach out to our Acquisitions team directly to discuss.

Bent Tree represents exactly the type of opportunity we look for: a supply-constrained submarket, accretive agency financing, and a clear path to value creation through exterior modernization, common area improvements, and light interior renovations. In partnership with the California Municipal Finance Authority (CMFA), a portion of units will be income-restricted under a regulatory agreement, allowing us to deliver quality, attainable housing to working families while completing long-deferred maintenance the property needs. At above 94% occupancy at close, the asset provides immediate cash flow with meaningful upside as we execute on the value-add program.

Garrett Blair liked thisGarrett Blair liked thisThe Bascom Group, LLC has acquired Castlewood Park Apartments, a low-density, 183-unit value-add apartment community in the highly desirable Orange County investment market of Buena Park, California. The purchase price was $53,125,000, or $290,301 per unit. Brian Eisendrath, Cameron Chalfant, Jesse Garson Zarouk, and Jake Vitta of IPA Capital Markets arranged the #acquisition loan from BrightSpire Capital, Inc. Kevin Green and Joseph Grabiec of the IPA Investment Sales team represented the seller. Apartment Management Consultants will provide #property management services & SD-Cap Construction Management, LLC will oversee the planned renovations. Built in 1963, Castlewood Park offers the characteristics that are difficult to replicate in today's new #developments - 1,028 square feet spacious floorplans, garages, and private yards. The property's garden-style design & low density of just 21 units / acre create a neighborhood-like environment with abundant open space. The community consists entirely of 2, 3, & 4-bedroom apartments, 2 swimming pools, & #leasing center. These attributes provide residents with a compelling, lower-cost alternative to homeownership in one of Southern California's most supply-constrained housing markets Bascom plans to elevate the property through interior #renovations, amenity enhancements, and onsite management. Castlewood already offers many of the features today's renter values most like large floorplans, garage parking, abundant green space, & private yards. Castlewood should continue to be a highly desirable housing option. While Bascom has acquired more than 369 #multifamily communities across the US, the first 42 acquisitions were concentrated in Southern California, primarily the OC, with many consisting of older 1960s properties. Properties like Castlewood remain an important part of Orange County's housing stock, & our focus is on making strategic improvements that enhance the resident experience while preserving an affordable #housing option in a very desirable market. While many #realestate buyers have remained on the sidelines during the multifamily pricing reset following the interest rate increases of 2022 & 2023, Bascom has been active acquiring 13 multifamily properties totaling 3,231 units & nearly $1 billion in cost. The Bascom Group, LLC has been one of the most active and seasoned buyers and operators of #apartment communities in the U.S. Since 1996, Bascom has completed over $23.0 billion in multifamily value-added transactions encompassing 368 properties & over 94,272 units.

Garrett Blair liked thisGarrett Blair liked thisBig shift for apartment owners under SB 1211. If you own a small multifamily property in LA County or Orange County, the rules have changed in your favor: → You can add detached ADUs up to the number of existing units on the lot, capped at 8 → No replacement parking required when you convert that surface lot → Ministerial approval, so no discretionary review to get hung up on Translation: that underused parking strip behind a fourplex can become rentable living space. For small landlords who've been sitting on a lot wondering what's actually possible now, this is the opening. The math changed when the unit cap went to 8. If you've been wondering what your property could hold, now's the time to run the numbers. This is for educational purposes only and is not legal, tax, or financial advice.

Advanced Real Estate Completes $41 Million Acquisition of 138-Unit The Cove at West Covina Apartment Community in California ... "Advanced's investment offerings are open to its 'friends and family' network, which has now grown to over 1,000 investors. 'We have a unique tax-efficient structure, allowing investors to use their trapped retirement funds for the bulk of their investment and leverage a smaller personal contribution of cash,' said Rick. 'We are always open to welcoming new investors.'" [Source: MultifamilyBiz - https://lnkd.in/d3vaKhBB...] This right here is the kind of capital strategy innovation that international real estate leaders need to be paying attention to. A tax-efficient model that unlocks retirement funds while reducing personal cash exposure? That’s a move designed for longevity — and exactly the kind of structure that can help brokers, developers and investors scale into new global markets without overleveraging. When capital flow meets smart financial engineering, everything changes. Whether you're working on syndications in Dubai or developments in Spain, these kinds of models can give you an edge in attracting cross-border investors — especially those looking for smarter, safer, and scalable opportunities. How could a capital structure like this change the way you approach securing funding for your international developments or joint ventures? #InternationalRealEstate #RealEstateInvestmentStrategies #CrossBorderRealEstate (Article and image referenced: https://lnkd.in/dE7HGdyp...)

Terrakotta was one of the first AI platforms purpose built for CRE to really impress me. Kusiima Boswell & Vincent Wilson built something people love and get real value from. Today I’m excited to host them for a live session in CRE AI Studio to share their tips on prospecting and biz dev with off the shelf AI tools, and to showcase when you might want to level up to something purpose built like Terrakotta. Plus trial by fire when we hit them with Q&A from a pack of CRE AI power users 😜. Head to the link in the comments and you can grab a 7 day free trial to CRE AI Studio in time for the session at 1:30PM est!
