Newmark announces the sale of 52nd Marketplace, a 157-unit multifamily asset located at 7797 West 52nd Avenue in the west suburbs of Denver–Arvada, Colorado. Newmark Executive Managing Directors Andy Hellman and Justin Hunt, Vice Chairmen Terrance Hunt and Shane Ozment, Senior Transaction Managers Amanda Meldrum and Katie Hufnagel and Transaction Manager Craig Ratterman represented the seller, The Bascom Group in the sale to buyer, Orion Real Estate Partners for an undisclosed price.
“We are very excited to add 52nd Marketplace to our Denver portfolio,” said Orion founder Marc Venegas. “The property represents our ninth acquisition in the Denver MSA and our first in the highly-desirable western suburb of Arvada. Within walking distance to the property is Olde Town Arvada, the town’s pedestrian-friendly historic district, which includes an eclectic mix of locally-owned boutiques, restaurants and shops. Olde Town Arvada also boasts a light rail station that provides convenient commuter access to downtown Denver via the RTD Gold Line with Union Station only five stops away.”
Olde Town Arvada is a destination for residents and visitors alike. Listed on the National Register of Historic Places and supported by the Olde Town Business Improvement District, it is a historic city center as well as a growing business district.
“Both the property’s location in the high-barrier to entry Arvada market and its proven value-add strategy make it competitive with newer product in the area,” said Andy. “With approximately 50% of the units renovated, those that remain unrenovated are poised for significant value-add upside.”
Due to zoning restrictions, legislation and lack of feasible sites, development in the western suburbs, including Arvada, has high barriers to entry and demand for multifamily has been outpacing supply. According to Newmark Research, there are currently no multifamily projects under construction in the Arvada submarket.
