Cushman & Wakefield Arranges $71M Sale of Multifamily Property in Alabama

BIRMINGHAM, Ala.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Cushman & Wakefield (NYSE: CWK) announced that the commercial real estate services firm has arranged the sale of Colony Woods, a 414-unit multifamily property located in the Cahaba Heights submarket of Birmingham, Alabama. The final sale price was $71.4 million.

Cushman & Wakefield’s Andrew Brown and Craig Hey represented the seller, Forum Investment Group, in the transaction. The multifamily property was acquired by Arcan Capital.

“Colony Woods is a well-located asset in a high-traffic submarket of Birmingham just off Hwy 280. Surrounded by primarily Class A product, the property is well-positioned to benefit from a capital infusion campaign to upgrade unit interiors and amenities,” said Brown, Managing Director at Cushman & Wakefield. “Suburban Birmingham multifamily has also experienced recent rent growth at high occupancy levels and new ownership should be able to capitalize on the upside.”

Colony Woods was 96% leased at the time of sale. The multifamily property offers a prominent location for residents that provides close proximity to a variety of employment opportunities and retail.
