Multifamily Investing in Southern California

Irvine, CA – Advanced Real Estate has acquired the “Newhope Village,” apartments adding to its 12,000+ unit portfolio in Southern California.  “Newhope Village fits perfectly with our surrounding properties, we now have over 1,750 units in the City of Santa Ana” said Rick Julian, CEO of Advanced. “This creates even more efficiencies with management and renovations.” Advanced plans for significant renovations and upgrades to the property, including the addition of in-unit washer and dryers, new cabinetry, flooring, fixtures, appliances, windows and a modern paint scheme. These upgrades will be completed by Advanced’s in-house construction company, R3 Construction and in-house property management company, Advanced Management Company. The gated, podium-style property features a host of amenities including pool, fitness center and tot-lot. This is the second acquisition for Advanced’s newest Opportunity Fund (Advanced Fund 24-3). They purchased “The Cove” last month, a 138-unit property in West Covina and they plan multiple other Southern California apartment acquisitions in the coming year. “We were able to acquire this property through a 721 contribution which allowed a tax-deferred transaction for the family who owned it. They are now partners in our Fund and diversified amongst the other assets” said Paul Julian, Rick’s son and President of Advanced. Advanced’s investment offerings are open to their “friends and family” network which has now grown to over 1,000 investors. “We are always open to welcoming new investors either through cash and retirement investments, or through a contribution of their property, like in this case with Newhope Village” continued Rick Julian. Advanced retired a $9.5 million HUD loan and ultimately plans to place debt on the property providing even more capital to its $100 million+ Fund.

Irvine, CA – Advanced Real Estate has paid $41 million to purchase “The Cove at West Covina,” adding to its 12,000+ unit portfolio in Southern California. “The Cove is well-located with large units averaging over 1,000 square feet. It’s rare to find such an attractive unit mix for under $300,000 per unit.” Said Rick Julian, CEO of Advanced. “West Covina has been a historically strong rental market with abundant retail and employment and very little new competing supply. The last significant new multi-family development was completed over 12 years ago.” said Paul Julian, Rick’s son and President of Advanced. “We see great value in this type of low-density product in the San Gabriel Valley.” Advanced plans for significant renovations and upgrades to the property, including the addition of in-unit washer and dryers, new cabinetry, flooring, fixtures, appliances, windows and a modern paint scheme. These upgrades will be completed by Advanced’s in-house construction company, R3 Construction and in-house property management company, Advanced Management Company. The gated property features a host of amenities including 2 pools with cabanas, fitness center, fire-pits, garages and a large open landscaped area.
