The seller, Monterey Associates LTD, a Wisconsin limited partnership had owned the property since it was built. The buyer, Cabat Properties LLC is planning a major renovation and repositioning of the property.


 Smith brokered both deals.


“The Tallahassee multifamily market remains very strong in both occupancy and rents. The combination of a strong student population along with the government infrastructure in Tallahassee provides the demographics for a high level of investor demand for this market” said Smith.

“Having the technology to assess the market conditions and provide timely market data
to potential buyers is the key to successfully marketing and closing transactions.

" As a boutiquebrokerage specialized in multifamily investments, the brokerage technology we have developed allows us to immediately distribute detailed information about an investment opportunity to buyers that we know would be interested in a particular type of asset. In both cases, based on the sellers’ time constraints, we were able to contact suitable buyers, evaluate offers, go to contract and close within those time constraints” says Smith
