JLL closes $65.9 million sale of 320-unit Durham, NC apartments


Lodge at Croasdaile Farm, a 320-unit, garden-style and townhome apartment community in the North Durham, NC submarket 

CHARLOTTE, NC – JLL Capital Markets announced has closed the $65.9 million sale of Lodge at Croasdaile Farm, a 320-unit, garden-style and townhome apartment community in the North Durham submarket of Durham, North Carolina.

Andrea Howard 

 JLL marketed the property on behalf of the seller, a joint venture between Boston-based The Davis Companies and Gemini Partners, LLC, and procured the buyer, Virginia-based RST Development, which assumed management operations under its affiliate, Hercules Living.


Jeff Glenn 
 The Lodge at Croasdaile Farm is situated on nearly 40 acres at 3130 Hillandale Road within the Croasdaile Farm master-planned community, which features a median home price of nearly $525,000.

Completed in 2019, the three-phase property consists of a mix of one-, two- and three-bedroom garden-style flats and two- and three-bedroom townhome units totaling 340,160 rentable square feet.

Community amenities include a resort-style saltwater pool, outdoor grilling areas, resident lounge with community kitchen and coffee bar, fitness center with yoga space, outdoor pavilion with games, private gardens and a leash-free bark park.


 Allan Lynch

Residents also have direct access to premium lifestyle amenities, including Croasdaile’s extensive paved greenway system and the trails surrounding Crystal Lake, as well as access to nearby Interstate 85, which provides connectivity to the MSA’s largest employers in Downtown Durham, Duke University and Duke Medical Center.

 The JLL Capital Markets team representing the seller was led by Managing Directors Jeff Glenn and Andrea Howard, Senior Director Allan Lynch, Directors Caylor Mark and John Currin along with former Managing Director Justin Good.


“Recent deliveries in the Durham sub-market are urban infill developments,” said Blair Booth, one of the development partners involved with the project.

Caylor Mark 
“The cost to deliver and rent these projects have priced out a large portion of the rental demographic. 

"Our goal was to develop a close-in, Class A property with competitive finishes at a cost and price point well below our infill competitors.

"The vigorous lease-up and strong rental rates exceeded our expectations and supported the need for quality workforce housing in Durham.”

JLL closes $9.5 million sale of 285.5-acre campus in Oregon's Willamette Valley wine region


Evergreen Space Museum
    Willamette Valley’s wine region, Oregon

PORTLAND, OR – JLL Capital Markets announced it has closed the $9.5 million sale of a 285.5-acre campus that houses the Evergreen Space Museum, Wings & Waves Waterpark, The Lodge event and wedding venue, approximately 220 acres of established vineyards and farmland and a development site designed to accommodate a 99,000-square-foot hotel all within a Qualified Opportunity Zone in Oregon’s famed Willamette Valley’s wine region.

JLL marketed the property on behalf of the seller, Salt Lake City-based Falls Event Center LLC. McMinnville Properties LLC, which is owned by Bill Stoller of Stoller Wine Group, purchased the asset.


William H. (Bill) Stoller
A native of nearby Dayton, Ore., Stoller is committed to the property for the long haul and has a distinct vision for it. 

First and foremost, he plans to bring stability to a campus that has faced distinct challenges in years’ past. 

The nonprofit Evergreen Aviation and Space Museum will maintain its lease of the exhibit buildings, while the new owners have upgrades already planned for the water park and see future potential related to the hotel development site.

The five-parcel property has been a Wine Country tourist attraction since the original aviation portion of the museum, which was not included in the sale, welcomed its first guest in 1991. 

The 120,000-square-foot Evergreen Space Museum building was added in 2008 and greatly expanded park offerings and exhibits. 

The Wings & Waves Waterpark, which is Oregon’s largest waterpark, is an all-season, family-friendly destination that was added to the site in 2011 and offers 10 slides, including four that originate inside a roof-mounted 747, and a 91,000-gallon wave pool. 
Adam Taylor

A former chapel known as The Lodge has a 150-person capacity and offers event space with a log cabin aesthetic complete with burning fireplace, while the established agricultural land has a mix of vines and feed grass that is harvested by a third party. 

The 6.96-acre development site is entitled for a 96-key hotel with an indoor swimming pool, restaurant, fitness center and parking. 

Two additional buildings, including the museum structure that houses the famous Spruce Goose, Howard Hughes’ wooden airplane, and a theater building was not included in the sale.

The campus is located at 500 Northeast Captain Michael King Smith Way. The property is 23 miles southwest of Portland and 30 minutes north of Salem off East Salmon River Highway 18 just east of McMinnville, Oregon.



Buzz Ellis
The JLL Capital Markets team representing the seller was led by Director Adam Taylor and Managing Director Buzz Ellis.

“The Stoller’s acquisition of this landmark property is a welcome bit of positive news in a challenging time,” Taylor said. 

“The portfolio was very well-received by the investor community, and the fact that it will remain in operation as a unique destination for locals and visitors alike is the ideal outcome for the local and regional economy.”

PEBB Enterprises and Banyan Development Obtain $26.95 Million Construction Loan for Mainstreet at Boynton Beach, FL


 Ian Weiner
BOYNTON BEACH, FL –– PEBB Enterprises and joint venture partner Banyan Development secured a $26.95 million construction loan for the impactful Mainstreet at Boynton project in Boynton Beach. Buffalo, N.Y.-based M&T Bank is the lender.

The transaction closed on April 22.
Site work is underway at the mixed-use development, which is located at 6405 W. Boynton Beach Blvd. 

The carefully planned project is expected to be a major catalyst for the West Boynton area.
Popular organic grocer Sprouts is leasing 26,000 square feet to anchor the primary retail component of Mainstreet at Boynton, with Wawa signed on to occupy an outparcel.
 Jason Sher 
“We are thrilled to complete this transaction with M&T Bank,” PEBB Enterprises President and CEO Ian Weiner said. 

“This was our first opportunity to work with the bank, and it was a pleasure. The successful closing is a testament to the strength of our joint venture and the substantial pre-leasing activity already generated.”
Mainstreet at Boynton’s plans also include a 158-bed, 117,000-square-foot Congregate Living Facility (CLF).
The venture recently finalized a lease for a retail tenant to occupy 4,000 square feet within the grocery building anchored by Sprouts. It is also negotiating letters of intent (LOI) with several retail and restaurant tenants. Including the signed LOIs, the project is 85% pre-leased.


 Eric Hochman 
“The response from potential tenants has been tremendous,” Banyan Development Principal Jason Sher said. “It speaks to the attractiveness of the development and strong demographics of the surrounding neighborhood.”
Mason Construction of Jupiter is the project’s general contractor. Workers are making significant progress, as the site is fully cleared and pad and utility work for each building is in progress.
Shell construction is scheduled to be completed during the second quarter of 2021, with delivery to tenants expected around that time or shortly after.
Jenny Schuemann 
“We appreciate that Palm Beach County has remained open and is facilitating the continued processing of site work inspections and building permits for our planned improvements,” PEBB Chief Development Officer Eric Hochman said. 

“Our positive momentum continues, which brings Boynton Beach residents that much closer to experiencing the benefits of this forward-thinking, well-designed project.”
