La Mirage: hilltop site a few blocks from Qualcomm Stadium The Irvine Co. has bought an upscale apartment complex in Mission Valley — the company’s largest single-property acquisition of the year. The Newport Beach- based real estate investor and developer recently closed on the purchase of La Mirage, a 1,410- unit apartment complex just off Interstate 15. The 74- acre hilltop site is a few blocks from Qualcomm Stadium. La Mirage was bought from Chicago- based apartment owner Equity Residential . A sale price for the transaction, which was completed late last month, was not disclosed. The tab would come to about $ 350 million based on a per- apartment price of about $250,000 — the going rate for high- end rental properties in the region. That estimate would put the deal among the most expensive seen in San Diego this year. The county’s priciest real estate sale of any type this year is reported to be La Costa Resort and Spa in Carlsbad. Dallas-based Omni Hote...

CHAMPAIGN - When brothers Jeff, Steve and Mike Hartman went into the real estate development and management business together, they combined more than the initials of their first names. They also merged everything their father taught them about the construction business and all their mother taught them about family loyalty in their three enterprises, JSM Apartments, JSM Development and JSM Management. Under the JSM umbrella, the Hartmans now own and manage 700 apartments and 114,000 square feet of commercial space in Champaign-Urbana, including the new Technology Plaza apartment/retail/office complex in Campustown. And they have more developments on the way. Already started are a new apartment/retail complex on Gregory Street in Urbana, near the Krannert Center for the Performing Arts, and a new retail center on South Neil Street in Champaign, where Hillcrest Lumber used to be. The Hartmans say they work well together in business, running things jointly and never undertakin...

City of Boisespokesperson Mike Journee says there were red flags around what's been going on at the Glenbrook Apartments during construction. (Photo: Mary Kienzle/KTVB) BOISE - Hundreds were forced out of the Glenbrook Apartments in Boise last fall - the experience leaving those tenants confused and frustrated. "One day I discovered I am without home," former Glenbrook tenant and Iraqi refugee Tamara Al Thanoon told KTVB. Many refugees were among those told to leave their homes and given 30 days notice to find a new place to live in a city they were still unfamiliar with. It was because the property owner s were going to remodel the apartment complex and raise rent by hundreds of dollars.

HOUSTON -- Residents in a west Harris County apartment complex are having trouble sleeping because of a bed-bug infestation. Residents at the Windemere apartment complex are stressing over two wars they have on their hands: fighting the battle of the bed bugs and the battle over who's paying for exterminating bills . Zachary Risher says he never had a bed bug problem until a neighbor did. "To the right of me, they were treating, doing the heat treatment for bed bugs," Risher said. Two weeks later, Richer's other neighbor was treated. And then... "I woke up one morning, bed bugs all over my mattress," he said. Richer's not the only one. According to management, 21 heat treatments and six conventional treatments have been performed in the past 12 months at the Windemere Apartments . Management tells us heat treatments do not drive bed bugs from one apartment into adjacent units. But integrated pest management specialist Dr . Paul Nester says th...

Deputies say the newborn was less than an hour old.  KHOU 11 spoke to the man who discovered the infant and saved her life. Albert Peterson was headed to work like any other day. “I heard some crying and whining and crying, and I kept walking until I got closer to the noise, and then I looked at the ground and there was a baby down there,” said Peterson. “...

Thursday, August 10, 2017 at 3:34 p.m. Apartment Complex " /> A newborn baby was found early Thursday morning abandoned in the bushes of an apartment complex , the Harris County Sheriff 's Office said. Around 5 a.m., a man at The Bridges of Cypress Creek apartment complex on Red Oak Drive was leaving for work when he heard crying noises coming from the bushes. "He couldn't tell what it was, and then he looked and saw that it was a baby," said sheriff's office spokesman Jason Spencer . "He found a baby girl still with the umbilical cord on, lying on the ground." That man, Albert Peterson, told KHOU he at first thought the sound was coming from a toy. When he picked up the baby, she was still covered in blood and mucus and had ants all over her. Peterson took her back to his apartment, then called 911. "That’s just sad, for a human being to do another human being like that," Peterson told the station. Spencer said deputies followed bl...

5/12/2017 Overall Experience : A good first apartment for a poor newlywed couple .  But completely unsuitable for a family or someone looking to rent for more than 1 year. Pros: *Cheap rent, the rent here is competitive for the area. *The landscape is well maintained. *The apartments are regularly treated with pest control though we did see quite a few cockroaches. *Two laundry rooms with 3 dryers and 3 washers each. *Plenty of hot water that never seems to run out. Cons: *Once every few days the entire complex will be engulfed in a horrific smell akin to marijuana or burning rubber.  It only happens at night when you're trying to sleep and shut windows won 't keep it out.  The landlord will tell you it's just a skunk but in your heart of hearts you'll know that it can't be just a skunk.  We think it was the car repair shop next door burning old oil.  Either that, or one of the apartments were hot-boxing and opened their windows to air it out.  I eventually devel...

Court of Appeals of Georgia. FOREST COVE APARTMENTS , LLC et al. v. WILSON. No. A15A0799.     Decided: August 21, 2015 Following the grant of their application for interlocutory appeal, Forest Cove Apartments , LLC and American Apartment Management Company (collectively, the “defendants”) appeal the trial court's order denying their motion for summary judgment in this premises liability action brought by Teresa R. Wilson after she fell from an upstairs bathroom while performing independent contractor work for the defendants at an apartment complex. Because the uncontroverted evidence of record shows that Wilson had equal knowledge of the dangerous condition that caused her fall, we must reverse the trial court's denial of summary judgment to the defendants. On appeal from the denial of summary judgment[,] the appellate court is to conduct a de novo review of the evidence to determine whether there exists a genuine issue of material fact, and whether the undisputed facts, v...

REXBURG — Hemming Village announced today the women’s housing complex previously known as The Willows will become men’s housing starting in January 2018. The complex will be renamed The Cedars and will be the male housing counterpart of the newly rebuilt Cedars women ’s apartment complex across the street. The change was made public at an event held at The Willows apartment complex called “Rock The Willows.” Advertisement A spokeswoman for Hemming Village told the Standard Journal that the decision was made in an effort to “create more of a community environment” that would be advantageous to both male and female tenants. “We saw a situation and decided to make a change to benefit the surrounding community,” she said. “It’s more about creating a fun atmosphere at BYU-I and Hemming Village . With the women’s housing across the street, we felt that changing the Willows to men’s housing was the best way to approach that.” After the current semester ends at the Brigham Young Univers...

A proposed 92- unit apartment complex on Middlesettlements Road will feature four residential buildings plus a community building, gazebo and playground. The Alcoa Municipal/Regional Planning Commission gave site plan approval to Maryville Hall Apartments on Thursday, days before the Alcoa Board of Commissioners votes on whether to annex the 14.781 acres into the city. The commission will vote on the requested annexation, as well as the proposed zoning and plan of services for the property, at a called meeting at 8:15 a.m. Monday in the Commission Chambers of the Alcoa Municipal Building , 223 Associates Blvd. Although the planning commission recommended in April that Alcoa not annex the property at the intersection of Middlesettlements Road and Robert C. Jackson Drive, city commissioners revisited the issue Aug. 8 after voting in July not to provide fire hydrants to the proposed apartment complex because it is outside the city limits, as is city policy. Sinc...
