Hidden Lakes Apartments — Michigan Class B Multifamily

Invest in a region where Lightstone already owns and self-manages over 10,000 Class B units.

Hidden Lakes Apartments offers a rare opportunity to acquire a well-located Grand Rapids multifamily community at approximately $138,000 per unit — a 12% discount to comparable sales and an estimated 40% discount to replacement cost — providing meaningful downside protection from day one. Owned by its original developer for 40+ years and never institutionally managed, the property presents a clear operational upside opportunity that Lightstone is uniquely positioned to capture through its vertically integrated platform and ownership of 10,000+ Class B units across Michigan. Value creation is achievable without heavy capital deployment: a targeted unit renovation program, optimization of ancillary income streams, and closing an approximate $100/month rent gap versus comparable properties are all expected to drive meaningful NOI growth. Taken together, a compelling acquisition basis, identifiable operational upside, and durable market fundamentals make Hidden Lakes a strong addition to Lightstone's multifamily portfolio.

Proforma Net IRR of 12.3% and a Net Equity Multiple of 1.5x over a four-year hold
