SAN DIEGO, Jan. 23, 2024 – JLL Capital Markets announced today that it has arranged the $149 million refinancing for a three-property, 857-unit multi-housing portfolio located in Georgia, South Carolina and North Carolina.

JLL represented the borrower, Sunroad Enterprises, to secure the three-year, fixed-rate loan through a life insurance company.

Sunroad Enterprises acquired the three assets in 2021 and executed value-add business plans, completing 100% of exterior and common area renovations and 50% of interior renovations.

The properties within the portfolio include:

  • The 313-unit Verde Vista located at 4110 Verde Vista Circle in Asheville, North Carolina
  • The 288-unit Avenues at Verdier Point located at 3530 Verdier Blvd. in Charleston, South Carolina
  • The 256-unit Adara at Godley Station located at 101 Spring Lakes Dr. in Savannah, Georgia

Each community features luxury residential units, ranging from studios to three-bedroom floorplans, and a wide variety of community amenities, including a resort-style pool, a state-of-the-art fitness center, renovated clubhouses, game rooms, outdoor kitchens and more.

The JLL Capital Markets Debt Advisory team was led by Senior Managing Director Aldon Cole and Tim Wright and Vice President Bharat Madan.
