westwood apartments
Westwood is a garden-style multifamily apartment community built in 1989 and consists of 256 units in Jacksonville, Florida. The amenities include a clubhouse with fitness center, pool, gazebo area, outdoor activities court, dog park, and on-site laundry facilities. The deal was initially awarded to another buyer at a higher price, but the seller and broker ultimately decided we were the better buyer to go with due to our track record and bandwidth.
Interwest acquired the property as Deerfield Apartments for a purchase price of $22.5 million. The units were acquired in mostly classic condition with a fraction of units that had been upgraded by the seller.Properties in the vicinity were also older vintage and in original condition.A little farther out, there were several newer communities with better finishes that were leasing well. The business plan and opportunity to add value was through renovating the classic units and increasing the rents, positioning our units slightly under the spec of the newer communities.This would provide a nicer housing option in the area at a reasonable rent to the demographic.
