"Even though rising interest rates have dramatically hampered the real estate market, we were able to attract multiple competitive offers by marketing the numerous long-term benefits of ownership," said TMG Executive Vice President Otto Ozen, who brokered the transaction along with Vice President Nazli Santana.

Surrounded by rich farmland that supports a $2 billion agricultural industry and only an hour and 45 minutes south of San Francisco, Salinas has seen a dramatic increase in demand for workforce and affordable housing. According to CoStar, multifamily vacancy rates in the area have dropped to approximately 3% over the past year.
