An affiliate of Studio City-based Harrison Properties was the seller. Marcus &amp; Millichap\u2019s Jeff Louks, Gayle Factor and Elliot Sabag represented the seller, while Marcus &amp; Millichap\u2019s Matt Ziegler brought the buyer.<\/p>\n<p>Harrison Properties recently completed wide-reaching renovations on the complex, Ziegler told Commercial Observer. The property was completed in 1988 with 48 one-bedroom units, 72 two-bedrooms and 12 three-bedrooms. Amenities include a pool and spa, a fitness center,\u00a0 saunas and a rooftop deck.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The purchase deepens Prime Residential\u2019s roots in the area. The company has owned the <a href=\"https:\/\/therealdeal.com\/la\/2024\/10\/24\/prime-residential-buys-pomona-apartment-complex-for-115m\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Park La Brea<\/a> residential community, said to be the largest apartment complex west of the Mississippi River, since 1995. That property has 4,249 rent-controlled units in 18 high-rise towers and 175 garden-style buildings across 144 acres.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/therealdeal.com\/la\/2026\/01\/19\/multifamily-investors-wade-deeper-into-los-angeles\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Multifamily investment in Los Angeles<\/a> is ticking upward, with transactions like Prime Residential\u2019s latest purchase adding to the growing number of properties that have traded hands over the past year.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Investment sales in Greater Los Angeles in the 12-month period ending in March were up 25 percent from the previous 12-month period, according to Marcus &amp; Millichap data cited by Commercial Observer. Los Angeles itself accounted for more than 20 percent of all apartment sales in major U.S. markets in the 12-month period.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>At the same time, some investors are wary of sinking their teeth into the local market because of the polarizing <a href=\"https:\/\/therealdeal.com\/la\/2026\/06\/23\/new-state-bill-would-shrink-measure-ula-transfer-tax\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Measure ULA<\/a> transfer tax. Transactions exceeding $10 million in the same year-long period were down 50 percent compared to the year before the measure went into effect in 2023.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Multifamily vacancy in Los Angeles was at 4.8 percent at the top of this year while average rents rose 1.4 percent since the same time last year. Vacancy is expected to creep up to 5 percent by the end of this year as 8,500 units are added to the city\u2019s housing stock, according to Marcus &amp; Millichap forecasts.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Chris Malone M\u00e9ndez<\/p>\n<p>\tRead more<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a class=\"BlogrollPost\" href=\"https:\/\/therealdeal.com\/la\/2021\/08\/18\/prime-residential-pays-275m-for-equity-residential-rental-portfolio\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"200\" height=\"143\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/ft-prime-atwater-250x179.jpg\" class=\"FeaturedImage_image wp-post-image\" alt=\"Prime Group CEO John Atwater with Playa Pacifica and The Gallery (Brown, Marcus and Millichap)\" loading=\"lazy\"\/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n<p>Prime Residential pays $275M for Equity Residential rental portfolio<\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t<\/a><br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<a class=\"BlogrollPost\" href=\"https:\/\/therealdeal.com\/la\/2024\/10\/24\/prime-residential-buys-pomona-apartment-complex-for-115m\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"150\" height=\"106\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/Prime-Residential-buys-Pomona-apartment-complex-for-115M_F-150x106.jpg\" class=\"FeaturedImage_image wp-post-image\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\"\/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n<p>Park La Brea owner gets Pomona apartments in one of priciest deals of year<\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t<\/a><br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<a class=\"BlogrollPost\" href=\"https:\/\/therealdeal.com\/la\/2026\/01\/19\/multifamily-investors-wade-deeper-into-los-angeles\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"200\" height=\"133\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Multifamily-Investors-Wade-Deeper-Into-Los-Angeles-200x133.jpg\" class=\"FeaturedImage_image wp-post-image\" alt=\"LA Multifamily\" loading=\"lazy\"\/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n<p>LA multifamily investment grows despite Measure ULA, rising vacancy<\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Prime Residential just plunked down more than $50 million for an apartment complex near Los Angeles\u2019 Museum Row.\u00a0&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":406995,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[27],"tags":[48,52,51,47,50,49,163186],"class_list":["post-406994","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-los-angeles","tag-la","tag-la-headlines","tag-la-news","tag-los-angeles","tag-los-angeles-headlines","tag-los-angeles-news","tag-prime-residential-apartments"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/406994","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=406994"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/406994\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/406995"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=406994"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=406994"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=406994"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
