Carmel Partners, a San Francisco-based multifamily investor, has purchased LUKA on the Common, a 30-story apartment high-rise in downtown Boston. Northern Virginia-based AvalonBay Communities sold the 398-unit property, which was formerly known as the AVA Theater District.

Carmel Partners utilized a $137.3 million Fannie Mae acquisition loan to fund the purchase. Jeff Burns, senior managing director of multifamily finance at Walker & Dunlop, originated the five-year, interest-only loan on behalf of the buyer. The agency loan features an early rate lock.
