ALEXANDRIA, VA - Bell Partners, one of the nation's leading apartment investment and management companies, announced it has acquired The Thornton, a 439-unit apartment community located in Alexandria, VA. The community was acquired on behalf of the Company's Value Add Fund VIII investors and will be renamed Bell Old Town.
"Bell Old Town is our second acquisition for Value-Add Fund VIII and is another example of our ability to leverage a broad presence in our target markets to acquire a well-located, quality asset with careful underwriting and a disciplined approach to risk management," said Nickolay Bochilo, EVP of Investments at Bell Partners.
