Disposition of stabilized asset reinforces long-term value creation strategy
N. BETHESDA, Md., May 14, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Federal Realty Investment Trust (NYSE:FRT) today announced the sale of Levare, a 108-unit Class A residential building located within Santana Row in San Jose, California, for $74 million.
Delivered in 2011, Levare has played a meaningful role in the evolution of Santana Row and reached a point in its lifecycle where Federal Realty could monetize its value and reallocate capital toward higher-return opportunities. The property was 95% leased at the time of sale.
"This transaction reflects our ability to unlock value at the right time and put capital to work where we see the greatest long-term upside," said Jan Sweetnam, Executive Vice President, Chief Investment Officer at Federal Realty. "It's a great example of our broader focus on maximizing returns while continuing to elevate high-performing assets like Santana Row."
"Levare represents the type of high-quality, well-located multifamily asset that continues to draw strong institutional interest, even in a selective investment environment," said Will Purcell, Director at Eastdil Secured. "Its location within Santana Row-one of the most vibrant and proven mixed-use destinations in the country-made it a particularly compelling offering."
Santana Row is Silicon Valley's most prominent mixed-use destination, encompassing more than 2.5 million square feet across retail, office, residential, and hotel uses in San Jose, California. The neighborhood includes over 50 shops, 30 restaurants, 662 rental homes, 219 privately owned condominiums, a 215-key boutique hotel, and approximately 1 million square feet of Class A office space-including the adjacent Santana West. With more than 8.5 million annual visits, Santana Row continues to demonstrate sustained demand across asset classes and remains a key contributor to Federal Realty's long-term value creation.
