ATLANTA, GA – 29th Street Capital (29SC), a privately-held real estate operator, has acquired Cumberland Crossing Apartments, a 1973-vintage, 286-unit multifamily community located in Marietta. 29SC plans to implement a capital program to enhance curb appeal, improve amenities and renovate unit interiors. The asset was purchased with an existing Fannie Mae loan which the buyer assumed at closing.
“We are very excited to add this asset to our portfolio,” said Javier Bustillo, Senior Vice President of Acquisitions in Texas and Georgia. “Cumberland Crossing is in a great location within Cobb County and poised to benefit from the lack of new supply and tremendous growth going on in terms of jobs and population going forward.”
Cumberland Crossing is located in South Cobb County within the city of Marietta. South Cobb is one of the fastest growing submarkets in the Atlanta metro area, with over 17 million square feet of office space, two luxury retail centers, two universities and Dobbins Air Reserve Base, as well as SunTrust Park – the new Braves stadium – and The Battery, a mixed-use development adjacent to the sports complex.
“This property fits perfectly with our overall strategy of identifying assets in high-growth locations with real limitations on potential new supply,” Bustillo added. “Being so close to The Battery, the Franklin Gateway redevelopment area and the recently-approved opportunity zones to the north and west of the asset will continue to be a tremendous driver for the foreseeable future.”
This is 29th Street Capital’s ninth acquisition in the Atlanta region. Over the past 12 months, 29th Street Capital has also acquired 15 conventional multifamily assets throughout the U.S. and continues to actively pursue additional opportunities.
The transaction closed May 30. The sale price and seller were not disclosed.
