Unit interiors feature dishwashers, garbage disposals, tile in select units, ceiling fans and fully equipped electric appliances in the kitchens.

“Jasmine Homes was another example of a stabilized foreclosed property that sold at a price congruent to where non-distressed apartment communities are trading for in the market,” says Donaldson.

“Through our national marketing platform and highlighting the value-add potential of the property, we were able to generate 12 offers in a matter of 30 days, and ultimately closed with a buyer that paid all cash with no contingencies,” adds Meoli.
