A 17-unit apartment complex at 13931-13951 Illinois St. in Westminster sold for $6 million or $352,941 per unit, according to CBRE.
CBRE represented the seller, which it identified only as an out-of-state private real estate investor. The team also represented unnamed Orange County-based buyers in the deal.
