CBRE announced today that it recently completed the $93 million sale of the Esprit at Cherry Creek multifamily community located at 5001 East Mississippi Avenue in Denver’s Glendale/Cherry Creek neighborhood. CBRE’s Dan Woodward, David Potarf and Matthew Barnett represented the seller, a joint venture between Los Angeles-based TruAmerica Multifamily and Investcorp of New York. The buyer, Bridge Investment Group of Salt Lake City, purchased the 561-unit property in a sale that closed Sept. 28, 2018.
“Esprit at Cherry Creek is among the largest value-add opportunities in Denver and is located within the highly sought Cherry Creek School District. With extensive capital projects completed by the seller, an investor can now focus on unit renovations and the potential for exceptional value-add returns,” said David Potarf, Executive Vice President with CBRE Capital Markets’ Multifamily Properties in Denver.
Built in 1974, Esprit at Cherry Creek consists of 561 one and two-bedroom unit apartments across nine rental buildings. The property has received significant capital investment since its acquisition three years ago, including elevator, stair, railing and exterior walkway improvements, boiler and window replacements and roof repairs. In addition, 279 of the apartment units have been upgraded with new fixtures, countertops, flooring and appliances. Community amenities include a large private lake in the center of the property, plus a playground, dog park, sand volleyball court, clubhouse, pool and fitness center.
Esprit at Cherry Creek is located along East Mississippi Avenue just east of Colorado Boulevard, within close proximity to the Colorado Boulevard retail corridor, the Cherry Creek North retail and entertainment district and the Cherry Creek recreational run/bike path.
