Four local apartment complexes change hands amid market turmoil
San Antonio, February 29, 2024
Four out-of-town buyers have purchased local apartment complexes in recent weeks amid turmoil in the multifamily sector…
Two of the complexes, both on the North Side, were sold after going into foreclosure: the Canopy on East Bitters Road and Summit at Salado Creek off Wurzbach Parkway.
