Peacock Capital acquired the 29-property Garden Court Portfolio from a private owner

TAMPA, FL (January 25, 2022) – Franklin Street has arranged the sale of a 209-unit, value-add, multifamily portfolio in Plant City, Florida, approximately 25 miles east of Tampa. The $20.25 million sale marks the first time the Garden Court Portfolio has sold since it was built during the 1970s and 1980s.

Franklin Street’s Tampa-based Multifamily Investment Sales Team of  Zach Ames, Darron Kattan, Avery Jordan and Mark Savarese brokered the off-market deal on behalf of the seller Garden Court Apartments, Inc., and the buyer, Peacock Capital, LLC. Based in Orlando, Peacock Capital is a real estate investment and advisory firm focused on acquiring, renovating and operating neighborhood multifamily properties in Central Florida. The firm has planned an extensive value-add strategy for the portfolio, including significant interior and exterior upgrades.

The Garden Court Portfolio consists of 29 single-story block construction structures. The unit mix includes 75 one-bed, one-bath units; 79 two-bed, two-bath units; and 55 three-bed, one-bath units. Most of the residences have in-unit washer and dryer connections.

The properties, scattered across multiple locations in Plant City, are all within convenient proximity to Downtown Plant City and I-4, which provides easy access to major employment centers in Tampa and Lakeland.

“The Tampa Bay market continues to see exceptional demand from renters and investors as our area enjoys relentless population growth,” said Ames. “More and more, we are seeing owners like this one leverage current market conditions to cash in on their long-term holds. On the buyer side, we are seeing strong interest from investors looking for value-add plays in secondary and tertiary markets with strong potential for rent growth.”

Kattan added, “The Garden Court Portfolio presented Peacock Capital with an opportunity to acquire critical mass in one the of country’s fastest growing markets. As the explosive growth we are experiencing along the I-4 Corridor continues, the Plant City market is extremely well-positioned as one of the next hot spots.”
