MIAMI, FL – Affiliates of Harbor Group International, a privately owned international real estate investment and management firm, announced the acquisition of Oak Enclave Miami, a newly developed, 420-unit, mid-rise multifamily community in Miami Gardens, Fla. The community adds to HGI’s growing Miami portfolio, marking the eighth property under HGI’s ownership in Miami-Dade County, comprising nearly 2,000 units. HGI will assume the in-place loan for the property.
Completed in June 2022, HGI will work to finish the lease-up and stabilize operations of the community upon assuming ownership and management.
“Through our deep knowledge of the Miami multifamily market, we were able to coordinate with the seller to acquire this asset at an attractive basis and close on a fast timeline,” said Richard Litton, President, HGI. “As the Miami MSA continues to experience strong in-migration, both outside of and within Florida, we see opportunity in submarkets such as Miami Gardens as residents seek well-located housing at an affordable price point.”
