The JLL Capital Markets Central Florida Debt & Equity Advisory team represented the borrower and is led by Senior Managing Directors Melissa Marcolini Quinn and Lee Weaver.

 “Despite turbulent debt markets, we were able to facilitate a refinance of the portfolio with favorable senior financing from Freddie Mac, who was attracted to the deal due to the portfolio’s contribution to its mission and the borrower’s strong track record,” said Quinn.

 “The favorable senior loan terms and sponsorship attracted a lot of interest from equity investors, and we are happy to close this deal for the Carter team,” Weaver said.

 The multi-housing portfolio consists of:
