            Eric Bell, senior vice president investments in Marcus & Millichap’s Chicago O’Hare office, represented the seller and procured the buyer, who was required to assume existing debt.

            “The property has received numerous capital improvements within the last seven years, and in the last nine years, 96 units have been renovated,” comments Bell. 

“With the renovated buildings showing stronger occupancy and higher average rents, the new owner is well positioned to continue the renovation program and further enhance value.”

The property is served by Pace, the Chicago metropolitan area’s suburban bus division, South Shore commuter trains in nearby Hegewisch, and Metra commuter rail trains in Homewood. Lansing also has its own municipal airport.

            Riverwood Apartment Homes is composed of six, 48-unit, elevator mid-rise buildings and three two-story buildings totaling 66 units.

The average unit size is 907 square feet. Apartments feature electric baseboard heat and sleeve air conditioning, full appliance packages, private patios or balconies, custom vertical blinds and individual intercoms.
