JLL represented the borrower, The AltAccom Group, and secured the three-year loan with two one-year extensions from the lender.

The JLL Capital Markets Debt Advisory team was led by Director Jonah Aelyon, Senior Production Associate Sarah Murphy and Associate Ethan Habecker.

“JLL is pleased to have helped The AltAccom Group’s inaugural acquisition,” said Aelyon. “The historic district of Savannah, Georgia will benefit from their creative approach to hospitality and their new capital partner will allow them to realize their vision.”

Alice Hall is a three story, 20,000-square-foot apartment building that includes 10 two-bedroom units and four three-bedroom units, with secure parking.

Built in 2007, the property has nine-foot ceilings, expansive walk-in closets, stainless steel appliances and granite countertops.

The units will be converted from existing long-term tenancy to short-term and flexible-term furnished apartments. The addition of hotel-like services and technology will be added to enhance the guests’ experience. Completion of the project is set for Q3 2024.
