SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 14, 2022 – JLL Capital Markets announced today that it has arranged the $24.64M acquisition financing for Stonegate Riverside, a 160-unit, 1987 vintage, value-add, garden-style multi-housing community in Riverside, California.

JLL represented the borrower, Universe Holdings, to secure the ten-year, fixed-rate loans through Freddie Mac Multifamily. The loans will be serviced by JLL Real Estate Capital, LLC, a Freddie Mac Optigo℠ lender.

Stonegate Riverside features studio, one- and two-bedroom units with spacious kitchens, stainless steel appliances, vinyl plank flooring, over-sized patios or balconies, walk-in closets and an average size of 801 square feet. Communities include a spa, pool, playground, business center, picnic area, fitness center and dog park.

Situated at 6506 Doolittle Ave., Stonegate Apartments allows residents access to over 1.9 million jobs in the Inland Empire and benefit from proximity to five major freeways (60, 91, 10, 15, 215) that put millions of jobs in Orange County and Los Angeles County within manageable commute times.

“With its strong population growth, growing job opportunities and affordable cost of living, the Inland Empire checks all the boxes when it comes to demand drivers we look for in a new market,” said Universe Founder and CEO Henry Manoucheri. “The market’s relative affordability is one of several key factors that we value in this market.”
