Newton Multifamily Sale Represents a Pair of Firsts

Marcus & Millichap closed the $15.25-million sale of Curtis Arms Apartments, a 44-unit multifamily property in Newton, MA. Buyer and seller were not disclosed. Arranged by SVPs Tony Pepdjonovic and Evan Griffith, the sale represented a couple of firsts.

“We were thrilled to deliver this rare apartment complex to our client, as it presents a tremendous value-add opportunity in one of the most desirable cities in the country,” said Pepdjonovic. “The selling family built Curtis Arms in 1969, so this marks the first time the asset has ever been sold.”

Griffith added, “Newton is an incredibly low-velocity sales market, with this being the only apartment complex that has traded in 2024. The last sale dates back to August 2023, when our team handled 175 Adams St., a 31-unit property.”

128-134 North St. sits on 1.8 acres and is improved by four 11-unit brick buildings. The complex is comprised entirely of two-bedroom floor plans.
