STEADFAST APARTMENT REIT III, INC. BUYS ATLANTA-AREA APARTMENT COMMUNITY FOR $35.3 MILLION
ATLANTA, December 12, 2017 - Steadfast Apartment REIT III, Inc. (STAR III) announced that it has acquired Sugar Mill Apartments, a gated 244-unit garden-style apartment-home community located in the Northeast Atlanta submarket of Lawrenceville. The purchase price was approximately $35.3 million.
"The Sugar Mill acquisition adds another quality property to our portfolio from the Atlanta MSA, an area we believe is well-positioned for long-term success due to its strong fundamentals", said Ella Neyland, president of Steadfast Apartment REIT III, Inc. "Additionally, the community is located in a highly desirable county, which sits along several major highways and has experienced several large corporate relocations and expansions in recent years".
Completed in 1997, Sugar Mill includes 15 two-, three- and four-story buildings with one-, two- and three-bedroom apartment homes that average 1,094 square feet. In-place rents average $1,073 per month and the community currently is 97.54 percent occupied.
STAR3-PR27-1217
Sugar Mill residents enjoy gated access, a clubhouse and business center, fitness center, swimming pool and spa, gas BBQ grills, tennis courts, a playground, detached garages, boat and RV storage, a car wash and dog park. Every apartment home in the community features nine-foot ceilings, fully equipped kitchens, private patios or balconies, ceiling fans, fireplaces, entry alert systems and in-unit washer/dryers.
As part of the Steadfast Value Enhancement Strategy, STAR III plans to renovate all unit interiors and exteriors. The renovation will include a full replacement of cabinets, the addition of black appliances, upgrades to lighting fixtures and subway tile backsplashes. STAR III plans to complete the work when turning apartments between residents. STAR III also plans on upgrading common areas and amenities, including enhancements to landscaping, signage, grills, the pool area, pet park, fitness center and playground.
The community sits along I-85, and SR-316, a highway that provides critical east-west access for five state colleges and universities, including the University of Georgia. Sugar Mill is located in Northern Gwinnett County, where area residents benefit from upscale shopping, cultural venues, and ample recreational opportunities, with 175 public sports fields, 9,646 acres of parkland, 68 public playgrounds, 128 miles of trails and the prestigious TPC at Sugarloaf Golf Course.
With the acquisition of Sugar Mill, STAR III has invested almost $320 million with eight multifamily properties in Colorado, Georgia, Illinois and Texas, totaling 2,080 apartment homes. In the Atlanta area, STAR III also owns Reflections on Sweetwater in Lawrenceville and Ansley at Princeton Lakes.
