Berkadia announces it has arranged the sale of The Baldwin, a brand new, 270-unit Class AA garden-style apartment community in Orlando, Florida. Managing Director Brett Moss, Associate Director Tyler Swidler, Senior Managing Director Matt Mitchell, and Senior Financial Analyst Bennett Hopkins of Berkadia’s Orlando and Tampa offices arranged the sale of behalf of the seller, Catalyst Development Partners. Middleburg Communities, a fully integrated multifamily development, investment, construction, and management company operating in the southeastern and mid-Atlantic United States, acquired the property.
“The Baldwin is well-poised to continue capturing the robust demand it experienced throughout lease-up due to its infill location, proximity to the prestigious Baldwin Park master-planned community, as well as its access to lauded Winter Park public schools. Orlando continues to benefit from outsized capital markets demand due to favorable population and employment growth metrics, underscoring strong multifamily fundamentals for the MSA into the foreseeable future,” said Moss.
