Marcus & Millichap, a leading commercial real estate brokerage firm specializing in investment sales, financing, research and advisory services, announced the sale of Avanti on Central and Avanti on Pipeline, two multifamily assets totaling 195 units in Bedford, Texas.
Al Silva, senior managing director investments, and Ford Braly, first vice president investments in Marcus & Millichap’s Fort Worth office had the exclusive listing to market the portfolio on behalf of the seller, a local private investor. The buyer, a Dallas-based partnership, was also secured by Silva and Braly.
“The offering attracted over 20 property tours in four weeks of marketing and the winning offer included non-refundable earnest money from day one,” said Silva. “We worked closely with Brandon Brown of Marcus & Millichap Capital Corporation to secure financing and close despite fluctuating financial markets that caused a pivot from agency financing to bridge debt to better serve the buyer’s business plan.”
“Closing deals in this market takes a hands-on approach and critical thinking and this successful transaction is a perfect example of how the Silva Braly Multifamily Team of Marcus & Millichap can do just that,” said Braly. “The buyer has plans for extensive physical and operational rehab to reposition the property and take advantage of the strong location.”
Since the beginning of 2022, the Fort Worth-based Silva Braly Multifamily Team of Marcus & Millichap has completed the successful marketing and sale of over 30 apartment properties in the Dallas-Fort Worth area totaling more than 6,700 units and $800 million in transaction volume.
