Marc D. Renard, Cushman & Wakefield of California Inc.’s vice chairman and executive managing director, capital markets group, led a team that included Pete Shelton, Manfred W. Schaub and Kim Grant in representing the seller in the transaction. The property is Seattle’s first four-star built-green luxury high-rise and contains 325 apartment homes.

Seattle multifamily properties have been changing hands rapidly of late. As GlobeSt.com reported last month, Seattle remains high on the list of target cities for multifamily investment. According to David Young, managing director of Jones Lang LaSalle in Seattle, “Over the next three years, we expect the apartment sector in Seattle to outperform much of the US, keeping Puget Sound front and center on investors’ radar. The Seattle area will have slow but steady growth in the coming year, as increases in gas prices and lower cost of living keep migration focused around the urban core.”
