The GSH Group is thrilled to announce that we have a new property under contract, The Grove, a brand-new, Class-A luxury multifamily community in Grand Rapids, Michigan, which is considered the best market in Michigan and the Learn !
We are planning for a long-term hold of this iconic asset and projecting to return the majority of equity in the first 10 years of ownership and the rest of the equity in the subsequent few years. Over the first 10 years, we are projecting a 9.4% cash on cash return and an 18.4% cash on cash return over the span of 20 years. GSH is raising approximately $29 million of equity for this project.
We are extremely excited to purchase The Grove, a newly constructed, premier Class-A luxury multifamily community in Michigan’s fastest-growing metro area, Grand Rapids. The Grove benefits from top-quality construction with best-in-class amenities and the potential for top of the market rents. We are pursuing this opportunity under the belief that The Grove has unparalleled quality and will remain the most desirable apartment community in Grand Rapids for years to come.
Our thesis is simple: We have the opportunity to acquire one of Grand Rapid’s newest multifamily communities, The Grove, a 2022 vintage, 320-unit apartment community on the north side of the Grand Rapids metro area. After a strategic negotiation, GSH was able to secure the property at a 20% discount to what the seller went to market for.

The pandemic has created significant problems for certain classes of real estate and while multifamily real estate has fared better than most, the impact of Covid on other sectors has created issues in the debt markets and in household income that has had an impact on all sectors and the economy in general. Defaults and foreclosures leading to discounted pricing have not yet occurred to any significant degree and while additional weakness is anticipated when eviction moratoriums are removed, the multifamily market is expected to remain stable due to pent up demand, agency lending and significant liquidity attracted to the sector.
The reason the fallout from Covid has been limited so far is largely due to actions taken by lenders, asset managers and tenants to work cooperatively in developing payment plans and workout solutions in lieu of taking more extreme measures.
Speakers: Gideon Pfeffer, Chris Loeffler, Sheryl Morehead, and Ana Bozovic
