Apartments dominate
The biggest real estate deals of 2012 had a common theme. Seven of the 10 were apartment complexes. As Nor?wood Development Group and a few others started construction on some of the first new apartments in Colorado Springs in the past decade, investors knocked on brokers? doors looking for existing properties to buy.
Those listed here are just a few among almost 30 major apartment complexes that sold before mid-December.
Compassion International kept with another trend that stuck throughout 2012. Users have been buying distressed buildings at discounts to save money on future growth or so they could move out of spaces where they were paying rent.
But no sale topped the Palisades Park senior living center sale.
