DANBURY, CT, Feb. 12, 2014 – Institutional Property Advisors (IPA), a multifamily brokerage division of Marcus & Millichap serving the needs of institutional and major private investors, has arranged the sale of Avalon Valley, a 268-unit garden-style apartment community in Danbury, Conn. The $53,325,000 sales price equates to $199,000 per unit.

            IPA executive directors Steve Witten and Victor Nolletti, along with IPA senior associate Adam Mancinone and IPA associate Blake Barbarisi, advised the seller, AvalonBay Communities Inc. The buyer is Ergs Konover/Outlook Holdings LLC.

“Avalon Valley is a high-quality community with a central location that serves the needs of both lifestyle renters and transit-oriented residents who work in Fairfield and Westchester counties, Stamford and New York City,” says Witten.

            “A comprehensive review of comparable properties strongly suggests that the new owner can enhance value by implementing a moderate upgrade program that will increase value and keep overall per-square-foot and per-unit pricing well below that of newer properties,” adds Nolletti.
