ARA Newmark Sells Multifamily Asset Near Historic Downtown Littleton
ARA, A Newmark Company (ARA Newmark), announced the sale of Green Leaf Riverside, now known as Summit Riverside, a 248-unit asset located in Littleton. Vice Chairmen Terrance Hunt and Shane Ozment represented California-based real estate investment company Green Leaf Partners in the sale to Ohio-based Summit MultiCapital, LLC, the acquisition and financing arm of Summit Management Services, Inc.
“Investors were attracted to this asset due to its unique mix of units, which included 96 loft units, and its proximity to downtown Littleton and light rail. There is a real lack of new product being developed in Littleton which drew buyers to the asset,” explained Ozment. “Residents can access recreation out their back door, with the Platte River trail being adjacent to the property.”
Built in 1986, Green Leaf Riverside has undergone capital improvements, community amenity renovations and interior upgrades to bring all units up to date. Property amenities include an expanded clubhouse, a pool with a brand-new pool deck, a fitness center and a business center.
Only four market rate apartment communities have been built in Littleton in the past five years. This limited supply of new multifamily product in the city has lead to increasing demand for properties of all vintages.
Green Leaf Riverside is located four minutes from the Littleton-Downtown Light Rail Station, on the C and D lines, which provide direct access to downtown Denver and Union Station.

This will lock in the value application, diversify their portfolio, increase cash flow and significantly reduce their day-to-day management.”

“The amount of showings and offers that were conducted and received in such a short period of time of three weeks blew us away.
