“This acquisition fits well into Western National’s existing portfolio due to its excellent fundamentals and its ability to attract both students and professionals based on its modern amenities and proximity to a California State University, Long Beach, the 405 Freeway, and multiple employment centers in the Long Beach and Los Angeles metro area,” said Jerry LaPointe, Vice President of Western National Realty Advisors.

“In this particular transaction, we found that the seller’s representative, Greg Campbell, Group Vice President of Archstone, was a key to ensuring the acquisition process was smooth and seamless,” La Pointe noted.
 “Western National is already active in the Long Beach market as owner and manager of the nearby Pacific View Apartments, a longtime asset and strong performer in the Western National portfolio.  We are pleased to have found another opportunity in this same strong rental market,” La Pointe added.

The acquisition is the sixth acquisition in Western National’s Fund II.  Fund II also contains five development projects to date.
