Avia Equities Completes Successful Sale of Austin Multifamily Community
The Californer/10237130

LOS ANGELES - Californer -- Avia Equities, a recently formed real estate investment firm with offices in Los Angeles and Dallas, completed the sale of The Wayman apartment community in Austin as part of an investment sale which delivered above-market returns to Avia and its investment partners during a challenging and turbulent capital markets environment.

"We believe that our conservative and disciplined approach allowed us to successfully execute our strategy from start to finish, as we navigated the challenges of COVID-related restrictions, labor shortages, construction material price increases and more recently, a significant market slowdown," said Mike Mortazavi, Managing Principal at Avia Equities.

The Wayman consists of 284 one- and two-bedroom, garden-style apartment units and is located along Wells Branch Parkway in North Austin.  Over 20 months, a substantial value add program was implemented including replacing roofs and windows, painting the building exteriors, enhancing community amenities, and rebranding the property from "Ridgecrest" to "The Wayman."
