Realty company buys Burbank properties

CT Realty Corp. of Newport Beach acquired two apartment

communities in Burbank last month for $21.5 million.

The firm purchased the properties because of their excellent

location in the “Media District” of Burbank, company officials said.

The firm plans on conducting renovations to both properties, which

are separate but adjacent three- and four-story buildings on 1.4

acres.

CT Realty was established in 1994 and has completed more than 100

transactions totaling over $1 billion.
