MetLife has completed the acquisition of Grandstone at Sunrise, a 140‑unit built‑to‑rent multifamily development located in Peoria, Arizona, paying $45.85 million for the property. The purchase price equates to $327,500 per unit. The community, described in documents tied to the sale as a built‑to‑rent project, is positioned in the Phoenix metropolitan area and was conveyed by Thompson Thrift.
Grandstone at Sunrise sits at 24701 Lake Pleasant Parkway in Peoria. The development comprises 140 units constructed for the rental market rather than for individual resale, a configuration that is specifically identified in the sale materials as built‑to‑rent. The parcel and the complex were part of the transaction between MetLife, a multinational financial services company, and Thompson Thrift, an established developer and investor that sold the community as part of its holdings.
The sale price and unit count are the primary financial details disclosed in the transaction records: a total consideration of $45.85 million and an implied per‑unit valuation of $327,500. No additional financing particulars, such as loan terms or equity partners, were provided in the materials available with the sale notice. The documents list the address and ownership transfer without attaching further operational metrics such as occupancy, rents, or income and expense figures.
Contacts associated with the deal were identified in the transaction listing. Steven Gebing and Cliff David are named as Executive Managing Directors of Investments with Institutional Property Advisors and are included as points of contact in connection with the property listing information. Their titles are supplied in the contact listing; the sale notice does not elaborate on the specific role they played in negotiating, marketing, or closing the transaction.
