» Diversified Unit Mix Across 78 Residential Units
The 78-unit community features a varied mix of micro studios, one-bedroom, and
two-bedroom units, allowing for demand capture across multiple renter profiles and
supporting occupancy stability. An on-site commercial suite leased to New Avenues for
Youth adds a complementary income component.
» Operational Upside Through Lease-Up and Revenue Management
With in-place residential rents of approximately $87,679 per month against a market
rent potential of roughly $111,652, the property presents meaningful operational upside.
Legacy tenants from 2015–2018 are paying significantly below market, and a disciplined
lease renewal and management strategy could close this roughly $24,000 per month
gap over time without requiring capital-intensive renovations.

Park offers over 600 acres of trails and open space minutes from the property.
» Modern Interior Finishes and Community Amenities

and LVT (in select units) and are complemented by an on-site basketball court and
leasing office. The 2016 construction ensures modern building codes, energy efficiency,

D Street Salal benefits from Portland’s Non-Profit Low-Income Housing Limited Tax
Exemption under ORS 307.540–307.548 and Portland City Code Chapter 3.101,
designated as Exemption Code 44 (“COP Low Income Rental Housing”) on both tax
accounts (APN R337907, R337838). This exemption significantly reduces the property’s
tax burden, enhancing net operating income and providing a meaningful advantage
over comparable market-rate assets in the submarket.
