Leader in multifamily, retail, and office investment transactions closes major deal in the heart of Oakland’s Grand Lake neighborhood
OAKLAND, CA – June 27, 2019 – NAI Northern California is pleased to announce the sale of Vermont Apartments, a 44-unit property constructed in 1968. Tim Warren, Kent Mitchell, Randell Silva, and Alex Lin represented the Seller in the transaction, and were able to generate an all-cash offer over the list price during pre-marketing. In addition, after securing a buyer, they were able to find a replacement property for their client to satisfy 1031 exchange requirement.
Vermont Apartments was situated on a 19,700 SF lot and consisted of two (2) 2 bedroom/2bathroom penthouse units, nine (9) 2 bedroom/1 bathroom units, twenty-eight (28) 1 bedroom/1 bathroom units, and five (5) studio units. The project also sat above 43 garage spaces, offering a nearly 1-to-1 parking ration, and offered four (4) on-site laundry rooms, a beautiful pool, and balconies with sweeping views. Over the years, it was very well maintained and provided the new owners with the potential of significant upside upon unit turnover.
It was centrally located, with easy access to the 19th Street BART station and several city bus lines, just blocks away from Trader Joe’s, the Oakland-Grand Lake Farmer’s Market, various cafes, and Lake Merritt, providing tenants convenient access to all daily amenities. Furthermore, many of Oakland’s best restaurants and nighttime attractions were also within walking distance, including the Grand Lake Theatre and shopping opportunities such as Gap, Urban Indigo, and others.
