SANTA CLARA, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Institutional Property Advisors (IPA), a division of Marcus & Millichap (NYSE: MMI), announced today the sale of Prado, a 251-unit multifamily asset in Santa Clara, California. The property traded for $125 million, or $498,008 per unit. IPA Capital Markets arranged $73.5 million in acquisition financing.
“Prado is one of Silicon Valley’s newest luxury communities, with an ideal combination of lifestyle amenities and proximity to the region’s major employers,” said Philip Saglimbeni, IPA executive managing director. “Investor demand for quality assets in supply-constrained markets is on the rise, as demonstrated by high engagement levels on listing assignments. Moreover, recent improvements in Bay Area leasing demand and a modest decrease in interest rates have further spurred transaction volume and closure of bid ask spreads.”
Philip Saglimbeni and IPA’s Stanford Jones, Salvatore Saglimbeni and Alex Tartaglia represented the seller, Summerhill Apartment Communities, and procured the buyer, Alliance Residential. Brian Eisendrath, Cameron Chalfant and Jesse Zarouk of IPA Capital Markets arranged five-year, 5.95% financing.
The property is close to the Lawrence and San Tomas Expressways, State Routes 82, 85, and 87, Interstates 280 and 880, and U.S. Highway 101. Caltrain, the Bay Area’s commuter rail line connecting San Francisco and San Jose, is within a five-minute walk. The western edge of Golden Triangle, Silicon Valley’s largest employment center with over 1,500 businesses and 138,000 employees, plus 22 million square feet of office space, is close by. Employers nearby include Nvidia, Apple, Intel, PayPal, Netflix, eBay, Cisco, Adobe, Samsung, and LinkedIn.
Completed in 2021, Prado has well designed one- and two-bedroom floor plans with contemporary finishes and an average unit size of 843 square feet. Community amenities include an Olympic-sized pool and spa, a two-story club-style fitness center, indoor and outdoor resident lounges, a remote-work business center, game room, and barbecue area.
