Guardian Acquires Affordable Housing Portfolio in Oregon, New Mexico for $497M

by John Nelson

PORTLAND, ORE. — Portland-based multifamily owner-operator Guardian has acquired a portfolio of 15 multifamily properties totaling 3,050 units in Oregon and New Mexico for $497 million. The deal represents the company’s largest transaction and one of the larger deals in the United States year-to-date, according to Guardian. Each property in the portfolio was built after 2000 using Low Income Housing Tax Credits (LIHTC) but after the end of the program’s 15-year compliance period, thus the properties were at risk of market-rate conversion. Guardian will voluntarily convert a portion of the portfolio’s units to income-restricted housing that is reserved for renters earning 60 percent or less of the area median income (AMI). The seller was not released. “This transaction represents a pivotal moment for Guardian as we advance our mission to preserve and expand quality affordable housing,” says Tom Brenneke, president of Guardian. The company purchased the portfolio in two tranches. The first was with capital partner AEW for two Portland-area communities spanning 310 units. The second phase comprised the other 13 properties, which span 2,740 units in the metro areas of Portland and Albuquerque, N.M. Guardian partnered with National Equity Fund (NEF) and JPMorgan Chase on the second tranche. “Partnering …
