De acordo com o Steve Friedmann from Topanga Partner, this project provides a positive community impact where job creation and modern housing meets affordable rents for our tenants. “We believe our Gilmore building exemplifies the future of Opportunity Zone projects where investors can channel their capital gains into Opportunity Zone buildings for attractive returns. We will continue to source these projects in Sul da Califórnia, and partner with fund managers like Arixa who share our goals and values,” he added.
Arixa Capital Chief Investment Officer, Jan Brzeski said that the area served will develop substantially in the years to come, with light rail approved nearby on Van Nuys Boulevard.
