Cushman & Wakefield announced that the commercial real estate services firm arranged the $35.6 million sale of Astoria, a 252-unit multifamily community in Mobile, Alabama.
Cushman & Wakefield’s Andrew Brown and Ben Thomas represented the seller, Saxony Capital Management, in the transaction. The multifamily community was acquired by Carter Multifamily.
“Astoria is a great asset, well-located with good bones. Current ownership did a fantastic job proving out the value-add concept and new ownership plans to continue with interior renovations that will generate substantial rent premiums. We are very excited for both the buyer and seller in this transaction,” said Brown, Executive Director at Cushman & Wakefield.
Built in 2001, Astoria offers an outstanding location for tenants given its proximity to job drivers and quality retail in the west Mobile area. Amenities include a resident lounge with billiards, foosball, and coffee bar; a remodeled clubhouse and wellness center; valet trash removal; and, a saltwater swimming pool with an outdoor kitchen area.
