LOS ANGELES — A private investor has purchased the 20-unit Villa Montana apartment community in the Los Angeles submarket of Brentwood for $20 million. This equates to a price-per-unit of more than $1 million, the highest price per unit ever paid for a Los Angeles apartment building that was not adjacent to the ocean, according to Marcus & Millichap, which executed the sale.
Villa Montana is located at 11611 Montana Ave. It is within walking distance of Brentwood Village.
The new owner exchanged into Villa Montana after selling a property in New York City. The seller was Ken Kahan of California Landmark. Both parties were represented by Ron Harris, Greg Harris and Paul Darrow of Marcus & Millichap.
Darrow notes that the sale points toward a larger trend in affluent submarkets like Brentwood.
