Build-to-Rent in Avondale 

by Mike Hunter

Scottsdale-based Empire Group of Companies, a leader in mixed-use high-rise and build-for-rent development, recently broke ground on a build-for-rent community in the West Valley. The Village at The BLVD will include 187 single-family homes for rent within the gated community located in Avondale, just west of Avondale Blvd. on the southwest corner of 111th Avenue and Roosevelt Street.

Empire Group’s president of land development Shelby Duplessis says, “Demand for rentals is strong and people are looking for space and privacy,” and Mayor Weise believes this high demand “will attract complementary investment — such as more dining, entertainment and retail establishments.”
