KW RESIDENTIAL Welcomes Kevin Owens as President – Property Management and Promotes Joya Pavesi to President – Brand & Strategic Services

 Kevin Owens and  Joya Pavesi,
 new division presidents
 at RKW Residential

Charlotte, NC RKW Residential, one of the nation’s fastest-growing multifamily management firms, commenced the next chapter of its executive leadership to position the firm for even greater success in the years ahead.

Marcie Williams

 Joya Pavesi, RKW’s longtime EVP of Marketing & Strategy, was promoted to the newly created role of President – Brand & Strategic Services.

Additionally, RKW welcomed tenured industry veteran Kevin Owens as President – Property Management. Kevin brings a wealth of experience across the Southeast U.S. and most recently was the Divisional President at RPM, where he oversaw the company’s growth from 18,000 to 60,000 units.

This innovative leadership structure enables RKW to deploy expertise with precision across all facets of the company. It underscores the creativity and forward-thinking approach that has propelled RKW to the NMHC Top 50 Managers list in just a decade.

 Jessica (Jess) Beck, Co-Founder and Co-CEO of RKW owner Alfred

“This is an exciting time for RKW, as Joya Pavesi and Kevin Owens are exceptional leaders who perfectly complement each other,” said Jess Beck, Co-Founder and Co-CEO of RKW owner Alfred.

“Joya and Kevin are uniquely suited to keep RKW at the forefront of operational excellence and innovation.”

Pavesi has been a cornerstone of RKW’s success since nearly its inception. Her customer experience excellence and strategic leadership have earned RKW many awards over the years, including the Multi-Housing News Marketing Executive of the Year and Best Marketing Campaign awards; Multifamily Executive’s Best Use of Proptech honor; and top 5 rankings in the J Turner Research Division I ORA® (Online Reputation Assessment) Power Ranking each of the last two years.

In her new role, Pavesi will expand her impact to oversee growth, revenue optimization and further bolster the firm’s service offerings. She will continue to lead brand and strategy, with a deeper focus on innovation and technology.

With more than two decades of experience, Owens is a respected property management executive who has successfully led operating teams in 36 U.S. states, with a particular focus on Class A and value-add communities.

At RPM, Owens was responsible for all of his division’s property management departments, including marketing, operations, business development, property transitions, facilities and construction management. He successfully oversaw the development and stabilization of more than 40 lease-up communities that outperformed initial occupancy and rental rate projections.

Marcie Williams, one of the founding leaders of RKW who helped the company become the industry powerhouse it is today, will transition from her CEO position to a strategic advisor role.

“We have endless gratitude for Marcie Williams’ contributions to RKW’s ascension into a premier national multifamily management firm and are thrilled to benefit from her wisdom and experience as a strategic advisor,” Beck said.

In 2022, RKW was acquired by Alfred, an award-winning technology firm based in New York. This strategic acquisition enabled RKW to deploy a best-in-class suite of technology and customer experience solutions to increase resident satisfaction and improve operational performance.

JLL Capital Markets arranges sale and acquisition financing of 2292 West Sand Lake Road., a 150,000 SF cold storage industrial facility in Orlando, FL

 

Taylor Osborne.

Luis Castillo,
MIAMI, FL – JLL Capital Markets brokered the sale of 2292 W Sand Lake Rd., a 149,570-square-foot freezer-cooler warehouse in Orlando, Florida. The price was not disclosed.


JLL represented the seller, a joint venture between Banner Property Group and an institutional investor, while IP Capital Partners, LLC purchased the asset. Additionally, working on behalf of the new owner, JLL arranged the fixed-rate acquisition loan with a life insurance company.

 

Cody Brais
2292 W Sand Lake Rd. is a highly functional cold-storage building, offering full freezer capability, six flexible temperature zones, 23.5- to 24.7-foot clear heights, 20 dock positions, six rail doors and abundant truck and car parking. The seller recently executed extensive capital improvements to renovate the facility.

 

The facility provides a strategic last-mile location for both local and regional distribution, serving some of Florida’s major demand drivers like Orlando International Airport, Port Canaveral, downtown Orlando and several globally renowned theme parks.


Moreover, it provides access to over 3.5 million consumers within a 60-minute drive through Orlando’s major thoroughfares such as I-4, FL’s Turnpike and John Young Pkwy, among others.

Wells Waller 
 

The property is fully leased to Quirch Foods, an international food distribution company. Quirch Foods, which has been at this location for over 17 years, is one of America's Largest Private Companies (#132 Forbes), generating over $5 billion in revenue and employing 2,000+ people.

 

The JLL Investment Sales and Advisory team was led by Managing Director Luis Castillo, Senior Director Cody Brais, Director Wells Waller and Associate Taylor Osborne.


The JLL Capital Markets Debt Advisory team that represented the new owner was led by Senior Managing Director and Miami Office Co-Head Chris Drew, Senior Director Michael DiCosimo and Analyst Jovi Rodriguez.


Chris Drew
“During and after the pandemic era, the demand for functional warehouse and logistics space tailored for climate-controlled handling, manufacturing and distribution operations has experienced a significant surge, both in the United States and globally,” said Castillo.

 

“2292 W Sand Lake Rd. presented the ideal opportunity to meet investor demand and capitalize on the remarkable growth of this specialized asset type, given the scarcity of supply, high entry barriers and increased space requirements from major players in the sector.”

Michael DiCosimo


“2292 W Sand Lake Rd.’s infill location, recent upgrades implemented by Banner, and tenured tenancy contributed to a competitive marketing process and bolstered our team’s conviction in this high-barrier industrial sector,” added Brais.

JLL Capital Markets is a full-service global provider of capital solutions for real estate investors and occupiers.

The firm's in-depth local market and global investor knowledge delivers the best-in-class solutions for clients — whether investment sales and advisory, debt advisory, equity advisory or a recapitalization.

Jovi Rodriguez

The firm has more than 3,000 Capital Markets specialists worldwide with offices in nearly 50 countries.
