COLIMA APARTMENTS
Location: Molalla, Oregon
The Colima Apartment Complex is a newly delivered 36-unit, Class A multifamily development located in the high-growth, underserved submarket of Molalla, Oregon. This 3-story walk-up was developed from the ground up to address the rising demand for quality rental housing in secondary markets with minimal new supply. The project features a modern unit mix of one-, two-, and three-bedroom floorplans with high-end finishes, energy-efficient systems, and full in-unit amenities.
Positioned near schools, grocery stores, and commuter routes, Colima offers strong market rent potential and long-term operational stability. The property was financed through a combination of internal equity and bank debt, with a long-term hold strategy focused on stabilized cash flow, minimal capex, and professional third-party management.
