Security Properties now owns 123 assets totaling approximately 24,500 units across its portfolio. This includes 5 properties and over 1,500 units in the Las Vegas marketplace.

Situated less than 25 minutes northwest of both the Las Vegas Strip and downtown Las Vegas, the area has historically been among the valley’s top-performing submarkets. The community has an brilliant micro-location at the intersection of SR-215 and SR-95. With direct access to both of these primary thoroughfares, residents are afforded convenient access to a multitude of area dining, retail and entertainment options. Directly across the street from the site are the submarket’s two largest retail centers, Montecito Marketplace and Montecito Crossing. At nearly 200,000 sq. ft. each, these centers offer residents walkable access to a variety of different retailers including a Smith’s Grocery less than 100 yards from the community’s main entrance.

Due to this inconsistency, Security Properties will be focusing on establishing a uniform spec level. The business plot also includes making strategic improvements to the community’s amenity package, focusing on the leasing office / entryway, fitness center and outdoor pool area.

According to Alex Gauper, Investment Manager at Security Properties, “Lofts at 7100 presented a unique opportunity for our firm to buy a core-plus asset in a dynamic location and an brilliant basis. The continued growth of the Northwest submarket, most recently highlighted by the success of the Skye Canyon master plotted community, should further strengthen the fundamentals of this area long term and make value for our investors over the hold.” 

The property will be managed by Security Properties-affiliate Security Properties Residential.
