Northmarq’s Kansas City office completes sale of 132-unit Class A new construction apartment complex

Birdie Apts
Class A multifamily property

LAWRENCE, Kan. (Jan. 6, 2025) — Northmarq’s Kansas City Multifamily Investment Sales team of Casey Wilhm, Jeff Lamott and Austin Waddell successfully brokered the sale of Birdie Apartments in Lawrence, Kansas. Built in 2024, the multifamily community features 132 units and is located at 1608 Birdie Way.

Northmarq represented the seller, TJC L.C., a Lawrence-based private investor. The buyer was Bridge Partners.

"Northmarq KC knows how to successfully market and sell newly completed apartment complexes and Birdie was no exception," said Wilhm.  "Our senior leadership has held broker's licenses for roughly 50 years, we have sold over 50 complexes in Lawrence alone (including the pre-stabilized sale of Fairway Flats across the street from Birdie), and we develop and operate our own apartment complexes. Being able to personally relate to developers is a differentiator that helps Northmarq KC maximize profits for our clients."

Birdie Apartments is a newly completed Class A community with a 95% occupancy rate. Located adjacent to The Jayhawk Club, a luxury private golf and country club, the 132-unit community offers residents easy access to world-class facilities, including an 18-hole championship golf course designed by Robert Trent Jones, a cutting-edge fitness center and luxurious spa services. Birdie Apartments also sits two miles from the University of Kansas main campus with close proximity to downtown Topeka and downtown Kansas City.
