LAYTON, UT – 29th Street Capital (29SC), a privately-held real estate investment and advisory firm, has acquired Twin Trees Apartments, a 43-unit multifamily community in Layton, Utah. 29SC plans to invest approximately $10,000 per unit in capital improvements, including upgraded countertops, cabinets, floors, appliances, lighting and fixtures. Exterior projects will include better landscaping, new heating and air conditioning units and curb appeal enhancements. The property is situated about 20 miles north of downtown Salt Lake and is alongside I-15.
“Twin Trees is an exciting first deal to establish 29th Street Capital’s presence in the Salt Lake area,” said McKay Winkel, Vice President of Acquisitions for Salt Lake City. “The submarket has tremendous population growth in addition to several other attractive metrics.”
Salt Lake City has recently earned excellent rankings in a number of areas. Wallethub ranked it #1 for the most job opportunities; The Urban Land Institute placed it as the #2 best location in the U.S. to buy multifamily real estate; Forbes calls it the #3 American city where employees are happiest.
Twin Trees Apartments is a block from Layton High School and is around the corner from a new retail center with a Gold’s Gym, Wells Fargo, WinCo Foods and H&R Block. It is also within walking distance of the Frontrunner transit rail station and the newly-constructed Intermountain Healthcare Hospital.
