The Avanth-Oak Tree venture plans to improve the fitness center and the storage areas at Harbor Pointe.

Together with the Harbor Pointe acquisition, Avanth also announced its acquisition of a 339-unit rental property in Seattle, Washington, called The Lodge at Peasley Canyon.

“Each of these assets presents an opportunity to leverage market growth while also preserving much-needed workforce housing in cities that have experienced some of the highest rent increases in the nation,” John Williams, president and chief investment officer of Avanth, said in a prepared statement.
