Success Stories

Drake

The Drake Apartments:

The SVN Multifamily Specialty Group recently helped a client complete a 1031 exchange that consisted of 5 town homes and a Single-Family Home all on one parcel. The units were in rough shape during the transaction and the rents were significantly under market for this area. We advised our client on the opportunity and potential this property could have if there was a transition from traditional housing to that of one with more focus on student housing. This property is a 3 block walk from Des Moines very own Drake University which hosts shy of 5,000 students, including 2,900 undergraduate students from 49 states and 26 countries. SVN also helped during the pre-leasing phase while all the units went under extensive renovations. Renovations entailed; LVP flooring, paint, lighting fixtures, key less security entrance pads, cabinets, countertops, stainless steel appliances, electrical panels, plumbing fixtures, privatized patios, landscaping and concrete work. Within the first month of leasing, we had hundreds of inquiries and were able to fill all units with tenants who are eager to get into their new homes come summer!

Sherman-Hills

Sherman Hills:

The SVN Multifamily Specialty Group recently sold a 5-unit conversion in the well sought-after Sherman Hill Neighborhood. After multiple conversations with the owner, they felt it was the right time to look at disposing of their asset even though the original intentions were to keep holding on for a few more years. The owners had a certain price they were looking to get and where they would be happy. SVN Multifamily Group helped this owner achieve their pricing threshold and got them the results they were looking for in a timely manner. SVN helped this owner see the benefits and opportunity the current market was showing that helped maximize their position to make the right financial call ahead of schedule.
