A three-property multifamily portfolio totaling 215 units has sold for $35,200,000 in Seattle. Dylan Simon, Jerrid Anderson, Matt Laird, and JD Fuller of the Simon | Anderson Multifamily Team at Kidder Mathews represented the seller, longtime private owner John Stephanus, and sourced the buyer, Vista Investment Group, a Los Angeles-based firm making its first multifamily acquisition in the Seattle market.
The portfolio includes three classic brick buildings in the heart of Seattle. Each property presents significant value-add potential while retaining architectural character and timeless charm—hallmarks of early 20th-century construction in the city’s urban core:
- Charbern Apartments | 1705 Belmont Avenue | 67 units | Avg. unit 569 SF | $12,300,000
Perched on the west slope of Capitol Hill, Charbern benefits from unobstructed views, proximity to transit, and access to Seattle’s most vibrant neighborhood amenities. - Stockbridge Apartments | 1330 Boren Avenue | 76 units | Avg. unit 430 SF | $11,550,000
Situated in First Hill, Stockbridge offers large unit layouts and immediate access to major medical centers and downtown Seattle. - Carolina Court Apartments | 527 Eastlake Avenue | 72 units | Avg. unit 477 SF | $11,350,000
Located in Seattle’s thriving South Lake Union neighborhood, Carolina Court is a classic brick building with walkability to major tech employers and life sciences hubs.
The properties had been privately owned for more than 50 years and were presented through a full marketing process that generated 33 tours.
“This portfolio offered immediate scale in Seattle’s urban core and strong long-term fundamentals,” said Simon. “Vista recognized the value and moved quickly to secure all three assets as they expand into the Pacific Northwest.”
