Institutional Property Advisors handles $32.25 million sale of Hillcroft at Danbury

Danbury, CT Institutional Property Advisors (IPA), a division of Marcus & Millichap, completed the sale of Hillcroft at Danbury, a 192-apartment home multifamily community. The $32.25 million sale price equates to $168,000 per unit.

“The property is a value-add investment opportunity with large, well-designed apartment homes and stunning vistas overlooking Ridgewood Country Club just minutes from the Richter Park Golf Course,” said Victor Nolletti, an executive director who heads the Northeast for the IPA Northeast and Florida team. “Previous ownership constructed a club room, fitness center and leasing center that positions the property to further benefit from an easy-to-execute floor plan reconfiguration.”

“Danbury has solid historic occupancy and effective rent growth,” said Steve Witten, also an executive director of IPA in the Northeast and Florida. “The city attracts lifestyle renters, renters-by-choice and young professionals and provides them with urban and suburban lifestyles at significantly less cost than comparable rental housing options in the Stamford-Norwalk metro and Westchester County.”

Nolletti and Witten, along with Eric Pentore, an IPA associate, and Wes Klockner of Marcus & Millichap’s New Haven office, represented the seller, Par Hillcroft LLC, and procured the buyer, Timberline Real Estate Ventures LLC.
