Investment Highlights

IMG acquired Foster Creek off-market. Its outdated unit interiors and passive management had prevented rent growth to keep pace with Seattle's record-setting market.

During the first three years of IMG ownership, rental income grew at an annual rate of 9.5%. This steadily boosted investor cash-on-cash returns to a level of 13.6%.

Cash-out proceeds from a refinance event returned the full amount of the owner’s original equity. Nearly all of the investors directed their refinance cash into a subsequent IMG-sponsored acquisition.
