HOMESTEAD, FL, June 21, 2016 – Marcus & Millichap (NYSE: MMI), a leading commercial real estate investment services firm with offices throughout the United States and Canada, today announced the sale of two garden-style apartment communities located in Homestead, Fla. The 150-unit portfolio sold for $8,500,000.

            “Due to the lack of available mid-sized apartment complexes in Miami-Dade County, investors are seeking assets outside of the core market. Homestead Gardens was an excellent opportunity for an investor to acquire a stable property in an improving submarket with the potential to add value through renovation and increasing rental income,” says Felipe J. Echarte, a vice president investments in Marcus & Millichap’s Fort Lauderdale office.

Echarte along with Evan P. Kristol, a senior vice president investments, and Harrison Rein, an associate, also in Marcus & Millichap’s Fort Lauderdale office, represented the seller, a partnership from Quebec, Canada, and the buyer, a limited liability company from Sunny Isles Beach, Fla.
