The Bascom Group, LLC (“Bascom”) has acquired 2300 Elliott, a 92-unit multifamily community located in the high-growth city of Seattle, Washington. Jamie Kline and Annie Rice with JLL arranged debt financing for the buyer. Chad Sanderson, Jim Singleton, and Joe Ferguson sourced and managed the acquisition for Bascom. Apartment Management Consultants will provide property management services.
Built in 1992, the property features a five-story residential building situated above two levels of structured parking. A standout feature is the rooftop deck, offering unobstructed views of the Puget Sound and the downtown Seattle skyline. The unit mix includes 12% studio apartments, 68% one-bedroom units, 22% two-bedroom units, and 1% three-bedroom units. Residents enjoy a range of community amenities, such as a landscaped interior courtyard, a modern fitness center, underground parking, and secure access entry.
“Our acquisition of 2300 Elliott is an opportunity to enhance the property’s appeal within the Belltown submarket,” said Tim Whiting, Senior VP of Operations at Bascom in a statement. “We plan to make targeted updates to unit interiors and key community spaces, including the rooftop deck, interior courtyard, and leasing lobby. These improvements will elevate the residents’ experience while keeping rent more affordable compared to the new supply in the area. The property’s prime location offers residents access to Belltown’s retail, dining, and entertainment, as well as nearby job centers, the waterfront district, and Pike Place Market.”
Located in Seattle’s Belltown neighborhood, 2300 Elliott offers access to retail, entertainment, and employment hubs. Just 0.4 miles from Pike Place Market and within a 20-minute walk of South Lake Union—home to major employers like Amazon, Meta, and Google—Belltown combines historic charm with modern convenience. The area’s walkable, bike-friendly design and proximity to waterfront attractions make it a highly desirable location. As Seattle’s economy grows, driven by a 29% population increase since 2010 and 50,000 projected new STEM jobs by 2026, demand for housing in Belltown is expected to rise, fueled further by major infrastructure projects like the $756M Seattle Waterfront and the $1.15B Climate Pledge Arena.
Joe Ferguson, Acquisitions Manager “Our investment in urban Seattle is position driven by the market’s proven resilience even amid record construction deliveries. With the new housing supply tapering off and a strong employment base, we see significant upside potential. The return-to-office momentum from major employers like Amazon further reinforces our confidence in the long-term strength of the urban core.”
2300 Elliott marks Bascom’s 14th multifamily property closed in the Pacific Northwest, and the 12th in Washington state. Bascom has completed seven multifamily acquisitions, totaling $256M across the United States, so far this year in 2024. The company remains highly active in pursuing new acquisitions and plans to continue expanding its portfolio through 2025. Since 1996, Bascom and its affiliates have acquired 363 multifamily properties throughout the United States, totaling 92,917 units. Bascom currently holds 10,564 units in its portfolio.
