Los Angeles Based Orion Real Estate Partners Acquires 115-Unit Value-Add Apartment Community in Provo, Utah

PROVO, UT – Los Angeles based Orion Real Estate Partners announced that it has bought Lookout Pointe Apartments, a garden-style apartment community in Provo, Utah. Orion bought the 115-unit apartment community in June 2020 and plans to invest approximately $1.1mm in interior and exterior improvements.
The Property is located in an irreplaceable location as it overlooks Provo from a perch in the foothills of the Wasatch Mountains in a desirable residential neighborhood. Additionally, the Property is within close proximity to the two largest universities in Utah, Brigham Young University (31k students) and Utah Valley University (40k students), and benefits from its access to the booming technology center known as “Silicon Slopes.”
The Property is well positioned to take advantage of one of the fastest growing tech hubs in the country, anchored by two large universities, and the highly desirable lifestyle that Utah has to offer.
This is Orion’s first acquisition in Utah and the firm anticipates expanding its portfolio in Provo and Salt Lake City. Orion has a favorable long-term outlook on these markets and expects that they will continue to outperform the nation in terms of job and population growth. CBRE Multifamily Capital provided an acquisition loan through Freddie Mac and Orion engaged Salt Lake City based Apartment Management Consultants (“AMC”) to provide property management services.

Located at 15125 N. Scottsdale Road, the various attractions located directly below Vitri’s residential levels include the state’s only Amazon store, in addition to the widely well loved Culinary Dropout, a restaurant, bar and live music venue also known as The Yard. The walkable experience within the 28-acre Scottsdale Quarter includes immediate access to an additional 80 retailers and restaurants.
Vitri offers studio, one-, two- and three-bedroom apartment homes and a selection of upscale penthouse layouts. Apartment homes feature two distinct contemporary schemes that incorporate the latest in design trends.

Kitchen appliance packages include GE’s premium Café line with a gas range, double oven and wine refrigerator. Additional features include floor-to-ceiling storefront glass, frameless glass-enclosed showers and keyless entry. Penthouse homes include 11-foot ceilings, upgraded flooring, smart-home lighting, automatic roller shades and custom-built wine bars.
