Cushman & Wakefield announced that the commercial real estate services firm has arranged the $49.5 million sale of Mountain Ranch, a 360-unit apartment community built in 2009 and located in Fayetteville, Arkansas.
Martin Bynum and Craig Hey of Cushman & Wakefield represented the seller, BSR Real Estate Investment Trust, in the transaction. Canyon View Capital, a privately held corporation that owns, manages, and operates $650 million of multifamily real estate, acquired the property.
“Mountain Ranch is poised to leverage the strengthening demand for upscale conventional multifamily in the Fayetteville market,” Bynum said. “New ownership is excited to acquire quality construction below replacement cost in a great submarket.”
