College Apartments, a 40-unit multifamily property in Fresno, traded hands for $4.6 mil ($115k/unit) as the final piece of complex six-property reverse 1031 exchange transaction.
Robin Kane and Brendan Kane with The Mogharebi Group were engaged by a Central Valley-based investor to sell four small multifamily assets in Fresno, Visalia and Martinez and move the equity into larger and newer properties as part of a 1031 Exchange. While marketing the properties the Kanes identified and advised the client on the acquisition of two larger communities in Fresno totaling 137 units in separate transactions totaling approximately $20 mil.
“A reverse 1031 Exchange can be extremely difficult, especially in this challenging market. If we don’t close on time, the client could face a severe liquidity problem while incurring a potential tax liability,” said Robin Kane. “With the 1031 upleg complete, it was now on us as brokers to sell all four existing properties to create a non-taxable event and use the proceeds to return equity back to the client.”
