Having been developed in 1973, the multifamily property has undergone extensive interior and exterior renovations in recent years, including new paint, energy efficient solar screens, two-inch TPO roofing, and a new boiler. The apartments feature wood-look vinyl flooring, resurfaced countertops, and upgraded black appliance packages. The apartment complex is less than five minutes from the Downtown Irving/Heritage Crossing Station of the TRE; within a mile of six community parks; and in close proximity to a Kroger store.

According to Yardi Matrix property records, the Rock Island Apartments complex has been under the same ownership since 2011, when it was acquired for $5.12 million or $33,247 per unit.

“Rock Island is a well-maintained asset in the highly desirable Irving market. Ownership has recently implemented further upgrades on 12 units with tiled backsplashes in the kitchens to push rents an extra $30/month,” Boyan Radic, managing director with Greysteel, said in a prepared statement. “This additional revenue along with upgrading the remaining units that haven’t turned will allow a new buyer to step in to an already stabilized asset and further increase the returns and value.”
