THE OPPORTUNITY

Soundview II Apartments is a six-unit, condo-style multifamily asset nestled in Federal Way’s Redondo neighborhood — a quiet, amenity-rich pocket of the city with direct access to Redondo Beach Park, Dash Point State Park, and I-5. The December 2025 opening of the Federal Way Link Extension places residents just minutes from Downtown Seattle and Seattle-Tacoma International Airport via light rail while preserving the affordability and quality of life that define Federal Way’s appeal.

With effective rents running $300–$500/month below Seattle’s average, Federal Way continues to attract cost-conscious renters priced out of the urban core. Development moratoriums are limiting new supply and demand has nowhere to go but into well-located properties like Soundview II, making this an incredible opportunity for investors.

The property has no deferred maintenance, with all units featuring fireplaces, private west-facing balconies with partial Puget Sound views, and in-unit washers and dryers. All that is missing is the finishing touches with a targeted value-add program, such as new countertops, cabinetry, and fixtures. This means incoming ownership can capture meaningful rent premiums in a submarket where income growth is accelerating, and renter demand remains structurally undersupplied.

Condo-Scale Layouts

Large, 2-bed/1.5-bath floor plans averaging 1,170 SF appeal to long-term renters seeking space, driving lower turnover and stable occupancy.

Affordability Advantage Over Seattle

Effective rents run $300–$500/month below Seattle averages, drawing cost-conscious renters seeking quality housing without the urban price premium.

Clear Value-Add Runway

Historically self-managed with no deferred maintenance, Soundview II Apartments offers immediate upside through professional management and a targeted renovation program to include new countertops, cabinetry, and fixtures to capture rent premiums.

Light Rail at the Doorstep

The December 2025 Federal Way Link Extension connects residents directly to Downtown Seattle and Seattle-Tacoma International Airport, a significant demand driver for the submarket.

Differentiated Unit Features

Every unit includes a fireplace, private west-facing balcony with partial Puget Sound views, in-unit full-size washer/dryer, LVP flooring, and stainless-steel appliances; a rare amenity package at this price point.

Prime Corridor Location

Situated in Federal Way’s Redondo neighborhood between Seattle and Tacoma, with immediate access to I-5, SR-18, SR-99, Redondo Beach Park, The Commons Mall, and Downtown Federal Way.

Supply-Constrained Submarket

Recent development moratoriums and minimal construction activity insulate the submarket from oversupply and support long-term rent growth.

Strong Renter Demographics

A 44% renter-occupied housing stock, 23% prime renter-age population (18–35), and median household income projected to grow 53% by 2030 underpin durable long-term demand.

Outdoor Recreation Hub

Direct proximity to Dash Point State Park and Redondo Beach Park positions Soundview II Apartments as an ideal home base for the Pacific Northwest’s outdoor-oriented renter demographic.

Proven Long-Term Performance

A five-year average rent growth of 3.6% and historically resilient occupancy reflects a submarket with sound fundamentals and meaningful downside protection.
