The buyer, a private

“Casa Corsicana is a
best-in-class apartment asset in its respective submarket after receiving a
$1,500,000 rehab in 2014. As a result, it commanded what we think is record
prices for small apartments in the Seminole submarket,” says Babb. “There is
still a tremendous amount of runway left for rent growth and we expect the
buyer will do very well with this property.”
“The buyer was in a 1031
exchange and was procured through a relationship between our Tampa and Newport
Beach offices, which is a testament to our national platform and our ability to
move capital throughout the country to service our clients’ real estate needs,”
concluded Babb.
