A private equity group has sold a 328-unit apartment complex in north Baton Rouge for $15.5 million after rehabbing the property.

Elevation Financial Group said it bought the Serenity Apartments, near North Ardenwood Drive and Renoir Avenue, for $4 million in August 2016. At that time, half the apartments were "uninhabitable" and the grounds were in "complete disrepair," even though the property didn't flood.

The firm spent $3.8 million on restoring the property. More than 160 units were restored and occupancy has risen from less than 50 percent to 95 percent, Elevation said in a news release. Rents average $680 per unit.



$4.0 million purchase price in August of 2016
$3.8 million to update
$7.8 million investment


29 months after initial purchase, flip it for $15.5 million for a nice $7.7 million profit

Yeah I was hoping to make a little more but construction cost with the flood got in the way and we had a couple accidents that we had to deal with. Otherwise it was a nice go at one my midsize projects.

That’s why you flip it instantly after repairs to some halfwit out of state buyer who flew in once to do a walk through.

That’s a hell of a huge investment for a bunch of apartments in or near Mall City.

I’ll take the under on that.

New owners will try to evict a non paying tenant and will see a coincidental fire shortly afterward.

I still don’t understand how indigo park came to be. I mean, yes the casino is there now but so is gardere and the sewage treatment plant. And I *think* I heard the new place built on top of it will be tax credit.

3.50 Months is probably more accurate.

Buddy of mine used to live there and we continued to go to the pool after he moved out. It WAS a decent place when it first opened. I turned around there a few weeks ago. Ohhhh how it's changed.
