RADCO PURCHASES TWO ATLANTA-AREA APARTMENT COMMUNITIES FOR $33.2M

SMYRNA AND NEWNAN, GA. — The RADCO Cos. has purchased two multifamily communities in metro Atlanta totaling 553 units from Fannie Mae. RADCO purchased the 439-unit Keeneland Farms in Smyrna and the 114-unit Brown Ridge in Newnan for a combined $33.2 million. Both properties include one- to three-bedroom apartments, as well as townhomes. RADCO financed the acquisition through a mixture of privately funded equity and bridge debt from Fannie Mae and Hamilton State Bank. RADCO plans to invest $5.8 million in capital improvements to the two properties, including adding a pool to Brown Ridge. The Atlanta-based multifamily investor also plans to rebrand Keeneland Farms and Brown Ridge as Ashford Woods and Ashford at Brown Ridge, respectively. Including these two properties, RADCO has purchased nine apartment communities spanning 2,264 units so far this year.
