Berkadia announces it has arranged the sale of a five-property multifamily portfolio in central and north Florida. The properties, located in Gainesville, St. Petersburg and Daytona Beach, were sold to two separate buyers.
Senior Managing Director Cole Whitaker and Director Mary Beale of Berkadia’s Orlando office, along with Senior Director Jason Stanton of Berkadia’s Tampa office and Director Greg Rainey of Berkadia’s Jacksonville office, represented the seller, The McKinley Companies, a real estate investment firm based in Ann Arbor, Michigan.
Sun Pointe Lake Apartments (96 units) and Sun Pointe Apartments (119 units), both in Daytona Beach, were acquired along with Windmeadows Apartments (323 units) in Gainesville by GoldOller Real Estate Investments. Berkadia also secured the financing for these three properties through Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae. Senior Managing Director Robert Falese of Berkadia’s Philadelphia office arranged the financing.
Benchmark Group purchased the Sailpointe Apartments (60 units) in South Pasadena and El Mar Apartments (42 units) in North Redington, both near St. Petersburg.
“As Florida’s population continues to grow with about 1,000 people each day and is home to the nation’s third largest workforce, the sale of this portfolio indicates strong interest in multifamily investment in secondary markets due to a variety of positive factors drawing new residents to the state,” said Whitaker.
