CHICAGO, IL — Waterton, a U.S. real estate investor and operator, announced the acquisition of Addison Park, a 426-unit rental community in Charlotte, North Carolina. 

Situated on 44 landscaped acres in the Harris Boulevard / Mallard Creek submarket, the community comprises 22 three-story buildings with attached, direct-access garages.

 Apartments offer a mix of one-, two- and three-bedroom floor plans, each with 9-foot ceilings, a wood-burning fireplace and private patio or balcony.

Community amenities include two resort-style swimming pools with sun decks, a resident clubhouse, 24-hour fitness facility, fully equipped business center, outdoor grilling area, children’s playground, car detailing station and on-site “bark park” with grooming station.

“There continues to be strong demand for luxury rental housing in Charlotte,” said Matthew Masinter, senior vice president of acquisitions at Waterton. “This was an opportunity to acquire an attractive asset in a highly sought-after location, with proximity to schools, retail and major employment centers like Charlotte’s University Research Park.”

As the new owner, Waterton plans to renovate unit interiors and common areas to increase the marketability of the complex.

“Our capital improvement strategy will put us in a better position to compete against existing rental stock and new apartment projects currently in the pipeline,” said Masinter.

The sales center, now open in the recently-completed clubhouse, is currently taking appointments for community tours.

“This transaction is further evidence of increased investor activity in tertiary submarkets in pursuit of higher yield opportunities,” says Baez. “Apollo Beach once considered a sleepy submarket of Tampa is now positioned for explosive growth as economic drivers are being developed in the area such as the Amazon Fulfillment Center, a recently opened major hospital and an outside mall in the beginning stages of development.

 The buyer, headquartered in the northeastern U.S., plans to improve the curb appeal, enhance the amenity package and renovated interiors with the goal of lifting rents to market.”

TAMPA, FL – Marcus & Millichap (NYSE: MMI), a leading commercial real estate investment services firm with offices throughout the United States and Canada, announced the sale of San Juan Villas, an eight-unit multifamily property located in Tampa, Florida, according to Richard D. Matricaria, regional manager of the firm’s Tampa office. The asset sold for $1,050,000.

San Juan Villas is an eight-unit multifamily property located at 3311 West San Juan Street in the highly desirable South Tampa submarket and is within walking distance to the beautiful Bayshore Boulevard.

It is located in a pocket of South Tampa that has seen a strong increase in walkability due to new restaurants and bars. The property consists of two, two-story residential buildings sitting on approximately 0.23 acres.

Francesco P. Carriera

These one-bedroom apartments were renting for $2 per square foot. Amenities include an on-site laundry facility, private patios, car port parking and off-street parking.

“San Juan Villas was on the market for a total of 16 business days before going to contract, and we generated more than 10 showings and six offers within that period,” says Barbas.

“The listing was cultivated over a long relationship before the seller was interested in selling. Relationships like these allow us to help sellers increase value at the time of sale and increase cash flow during their holding period.”

“Frank, Mike and I have now listed and/or closed nearly 650 units in South Tampa, and that number continues to grow. We are seeing local, national and international buyers submitting offers on these assets, and rents at two dollars and above per square foot are becoming consistent in South Tampa,” Barbas said.

“The mayor and city have done a phenomenal job positioning the city for growth, and it’s reflected by the residents that are continuing to move to South Tampa and the investors that are upgrading these buildings for them.”
