As a result, we were able leverage the special nature of the opportunity to procure advantageous loan terms. The Sponsor and the Cushman & Wakefield team were wonderful to work with on this transaction,” said Michael Zampetti, Senior Managing Director at Greystone.
Located at 1925 Weaver Rd, the five-story, 100-unit property offers a variety of floor plans comprising 40 studios, 40 one-bedroom units and 20 two-bedroom units. The community has been designed with gathering spaces on each floor and more than adequate parking with 130 on-site parking spaces.
