TAMPA, FL--: Franklin Street Real Estate Services is pleased to announce the sale of Amaretto Apartments (top left site map) in Tampa, Fla., for $2.2 million. The sales price represents $22,916 per unit and $26.94 per square foot.

Franklin Street Partners Darron Kattan and Bob Goldfinger represented the seller and Bobby Soroory of BOA Asset Management represented the buyer in the transaction.


The seller was the Lender. The buyer was a private, local buyer.

“Amaretto represents one of the first transactions of a significant apartment community in Tampa that was bank owned due to failing operations and not because of a condominium conversion gone south," says Kattan.


"The property was a classic bank owned situation, full of upside for the buyer once he spends time and money to improve the property and the operations. We believe the market has settled and we expect values to stabilize by the end of the year and, based on an overall economic recovery, we will start see appreciation re-enter the marketplace.”
