The Pennsylvania-based Morgan Properties has acquired three apartment communities in West Palm Beach totaling 622 units. Berkadia International Solutions’ Senior Managing Director Jaret Turkell along with Senior Managing Director Roberto Pesant, Associate Omar Morales and Senior Analyst Jose Mota of Berkadia Miami completed the $132.5 million sale on behalf of the seller, Massachusetts-based Northland Investment Corporation. The properties which traded include Windward at the Villages, The Royal St. George and Village Place. The deal was financed with a bridge loan secured by Director TJ Piper of Berkadia Philadelphia.
“An unprecedented wave of corporate relocations to West Palm Beach in the last year, combined with a shortage of rental housing in Palm Beach County, has produced a very tight apartment market with strong rent growth drivers,” said Turkell. “As a result, investor appetite for well-located multifamily assets has been extremely strong and is projected to remain that way for the foreseeable future.”
Windward at the Villages is located at 1441 Brandywine Road. The 196-unit property features one- and two-bedroom floor plans with air conditioning, a private balcony and in-unit washers and dryers. Community amenities include a swimming pool, a fitness center, a tennis court and a playground.
