Amidst a turbulent economy, Ethos Development and Lombard Equities Group have successfully acquired Pine Street Townhomes in Tacoma, WA from Kaz Enterprises for $17 million. According to the Puget Sound Business Journal , multifamily transactions were sparse in the first quarter of 2023 with only 15 compared to the five-year average of 57. A Lombard manager noted that this acquisition offered an attractive purchase price versus replacement value and provides substantial upside on rental renovations and turnovers.
