Beach Properties of Vancouver may have made as much as $70 million on the sale of Burnaby’s Lougheed Village rental apartment complex that it bought three years ago.
Lougheed Village has 528-suites in two 24-storey and two eight-storey concrete towers. The 7.3-acre parcel, close to the Burnaby-Coquitlam border and a SkyTrain station, also contains 50,000 square feet of retail space.
It was sold to Toronto-based Starlight Investments in a deal brokered by Lance Coulson, senior vice-president of CBRE National Apartment Group. It is the largest multi-family sale in B.C. in recent years and caps a white-hot market in Metro Vancouver during 2015.
Beach Properties purchased the Lougheed complex in May of 2012 for a reported $90 million. Citing confidentially agreements, Coulson could not release the most recent sale price, but two industry sources have estimated it went for $160 million.
