LOS ANGELES — Northland has entered the California market with the acquisition of THEA at Metropolis, a 59-story luxury apartment tower in downtown Los Angeles. The U.S. subsidiary of China’s Greenland Holding Group sold the asset for $504 million, according to The Wall Street Journal. Northland says the purchase price represents a 40 to 45 percent discount to today’s replacement costs. The newspaper reports that the original asking price 18 months ago was $695 million, which was still less than the original development costs. High interest rates and falling rents have affected the apartment market nationally. Additionally, The Wall Street Journal cites California rent regulations and the ability of renters to move away from downtown Los Angeles due to remote work for contributing to suppressed property values.

THEA is part of a master-planned community named Metropolis. Residents are situated two blocks away from L.A.
