The financing terms decrease
the REIT’s weighted average
interest rate and extend the
maturity of its mortgage note
obligations, Milestone said.
The balance of the purchase
price will be funded using pro-
ceeds raised from the REIT's
recently completed $115.1 mil-
lion (in Canadian dollars) equi-
ty offering.
The garden-style, two- and
three-story walk-up has con-
sistently boasted an occupancy
rate average of 99 percent.
The site provides direct
access to a golf course and an
extensive trail network.
Corum, on its website,
described its investment strat-
egy for the community as
“build-to-core,” in which it
acquired the land and devel-
oped it with an institutional
partner with the idea of hold-
ing it for the long term.
Corum recapitalized the loan
in 2006, with investors exiting
with a 14 percent-plus internal
rate of return.
In total, Corum recapitalized
the property three times, with
all investors exiting with more
than a 12 percent IRR.
In 2012, solar panels were
added that power the com-
mon areas. They were partially
funded with tax credits.
Pat Stucker, an apartment bro-
ker with JLL, wasn’t involved
in the sale, but has sold numer-
ous apartment communities in
the area and is familiar with
the development.
“Investors really like that
whole Westminster corridor,”
Stucker said.
“It is close to downtown
Denver, as well as Boulder, so
it is a great place to live if one
person works downtown and
the other in Boulder,” he said.
