ATLANTA – February 16, 2018 – Berkadia today announced the sale and financing for Azalea Ridge, a multifamily garden-style property in Atlanta. Managing Directors Andrew Mays and Paul Vetter, Senior Director Judy MacManus and Director Matthew White from Berkadia’s Atlanta office completed the $19.1 million sale on behalf of the seller, Atlanta-based Alexander Property Group.

Senior Managing Director Richard Levine, also of Berkadia’s Atlanta office, arranged $14.3 million in financing through Freddie Mac for the purchase. The buyer was Zavala Capital, based in Atlanta, and the deals closed on January 25.

The seven-year acquisition loan features a floating interest rate, a 30-year amortization schedule and a 75 percent loan-to-value ratio.
