One of the properties currently has a Rental Assistance Payments (RAP) Contract covering 124 of its 311 apartments (approximately 40% of the units), which is set to expire at the end of this year. To support the preservation and improvement of public housing, HUD established the Rental Assistance Demonstration (RAD) program, aimed at addressing the $26 billion backlog in deferred maintenance nationwide. RAD also allows owners of certain HUD “legacy” programs—including Rent Supplement, RAP, and Section 8 Moderate Rehabilitation—to convert assistance into long-term, project-based contracts that support financing for necessary improvements. Under the RAD program, HUD will issue a new Project-Based Rental Assistance (PBRA) contract for 248 of the 311 units. An additional 32 units that do not qualify for PBRA will receive Enhanced Vouchers through HPD. In contrast, the second property does not have any project-based rental assistance and is therefore ineligible for RAD. However, due to the requirements of the tax-exempt bond financing, at least 35% of its units must be rented to households earning no more than 60% of the Area Median Income (AMI), with the remainder subject to an 80% AMI income cap. At closing, tenants earning below 95% of AMI will receive Enhanced Vouchers through the Section 236 decoupling process, with rents set at market rates as determined by HPD. As these voucher-holding tenants vacate their units, the apartments will revert to the 80% AMI income restriction, unless a new tenant holds a Section 8 voucher. This reversion assumes that 25% of the units remain leased at 60% AMI.

Completed in 1974, Keith & Kelly Portfolio consists of three high-rise residential buildings ranging from 13 to 24 stories.  Unit configurations include 185 studio units (30.2 percent), 196 one-bedroom units (32 percent), 179 two-bedroom units (29.2 percent) and 53 three-bedroom units (8.6 percent).

Consistent with its value-added strategy, PRG’s business plan is to renovate a majority of the unrenovated units, install washer/dryers in all units, and enhance and improve the amenity offerings. PRG expects to receive a rental premium for the units it plans to upgrade.

Winter Park is in the Orlando metro area with excellent connectivity to the major employment centers in metro Orlando and its suburbs. The property also benefits from being less than one mile from Full Sail University, a private, for-profit university. The university offers online and in-person programs in entertainment, media, arts and technology with an enrollment of 18,000+. Many students are residents at the property. “Winter Park is in an attractive location within the Greater Orlando market, a geography PRG has been investing in and targeting for many years,” said Ron Orgel, Managing Director and Head of East Coast Acquisitions at PRG. “Given PRG’s value-added experience and knowledge of the Orlando market, we have developed a compelling renovation program to improve the amenities and apartments and ultimately seek to increase the overall value of the property.”

“Although COVID-19 has temporarily impacted the tourism/hospitality industry in Orlando, the property is located in the northeast section of the metro area so is less impacted by these industries,” said Keith Rosenthal, President. “We believe the property’s proximity to a large university, multiple healthcare centers and limited new development positions it well for continued growth. In addition, multifamily in Florida is poised to benefit from in-migration, no state income tax and excellent weather, positive trends which lead to an increased need for housing.”

With this acquisition, PRG now owns five properties in Florida totaling more than 1,400 units.

The firm is headquartered in New York with personnel in California and Florida. The firm has three business lines: value-add, new construction, and affordable housing. As of June 30, 2020, PRG manages approximately $1.5 billion in gross real estate assets under management.

Phoenix Realty Group (PRG), a national multifamily real estate fund manager, investor and operator headquartered in New York City, is pleased to announce it is partnering with Rainbow Housing Assistance Corporation to create a relief fund to support the residents of its properties.

Since the COVID-19 pandemic has severely impacted many of the residents living at the properties owned by PRG, the firm created the Alvista Communities Valued Neighbors Relief Fund (Alvista Communities® is the brand through which PRG operates many of its properties) to provide cash grants to residents of PRG owned and operated properties that have lost their jobs during the pandemic. This grant provides funds to residents to help their families cope with this crisis. PRG, along with its generous investors and partners, have committed $180,000 toward the relief fund.

“Unfortunately, many of our residents have been impacted by unemployment, furloughs or reduced hours,” said Ron Orgel, PRG’s co-founder, managing director and head of east coast acquisitions. “During these unprecedented times, we wanted to alleviate some of their hardships and support our residents.”

PRG engaged Rainbow Housing Assistance Corporation, a non-profit which provides service-enriched housing programs for residents of rental housing communities throughout the country. Rainbow Housing collected the charitable contributions and disbursed the funds directly to residents.

As part of its multifamily strategy, PRG strives to improve the experience of its residents by renovating apartment units and common areas and enhancing amenity offerings. The establishment of the relief fund continues this effort of supporting residents and enhancing their daily life.

NEW YORK (January 27, 2020) – Phoenix Realty Group (PRG), a national multifamily real estate fund manager, investor and operator headquartered in New York City, has completed over $700 million of investment activity in the fourth quarter. The investment activity included the purchase of four properties totaling approximately $219 million, the financing of two development projects totaling $305 million, and the disposition of the final two properties in a 16-property, 3,800-unit Class B multifamily value-added portfolio through a series of separate transactions.

PRG acquired the 16-property portfolio in 2015. The combined sales price of the 16 properties exceeded $800 million.

“We are thrilled with the outcome of this disposition,” said Keith Rosenthal, PRG’s president and co-founder. “We successfully repositioned, renovated and improved operations at these properties which was consistent with our strategic value-added goal for the portfolio.”

PRG’s primary investment strategy is to acquire underperforming Class B multifamily value-added properties and transform them into more valuable assets in growing, higher barrier-to-entry markets. This often means that PRG and its partners undertake significant and extensive interior and exterior renovations to upgrade the property with contemporary amenities and finishes, and put into place systems and staff in an attempt to reduce costs and increase the net operating income.

PRG continues to be an active multifamily value-added buyer. In the fourth quarter of 2019, PRG acquired four properties in Bowie, Maryland (Washington, DC metro area), Gresham, Oregon (Portland metro area) and Kent, Washington (Seattle metro area). The properties total nearly 1,000 units and an aggregate purchase price of $219 million. They were purchased by an affiliated entity of PRG and third-party joint venture partners.

According to Alex Saunders, Managing Director of PRG responsible for Western Region acquisitions, “The strategy for these properties is consistent with our focus on underperforming apartments in strong markets. As the operator, we will renovate the units and common areas, enhance the amenity offerings and improve operations to try to increase value and provide a better living experience for the residents.”

In addition to its value-added strategy, PRG will be partnering with Artimus Construction to commence construction on the development of a $240 million mixed-income rental apartment tower in Queens, New York with 543 units. As reported by The Real Deal, this was the sixth largest real estate project in New York City to file building plans in 2018.

As a result of the acquisitions, PRG currently owns properties in Connecticut, New York, New Jersey, Maryland, North Carolina, Florida, Louisiana, Arizona, Colorado, California, Oregon and Washington.

Phoenix Realty Group LLC (www.phoenixrg.com) is a 20-year old firm focused on multifamily residential properties in higher barrier-to-entry and infill markets. The firm is headquartered in New York with personnel in California and Florida. The firm has three business lines: valueadded, new construction, and affordable housing. As of December 31, 2019, PRG has approximately $1.4 billion in gross real estate assets under management.

SEATTLE & NEW YORK (January 13, 2020), – Phoenix Realty Group (PRG), a national multifamily real estate fund manager, investor, and operator, and joint venture partner Hanover Real Estate Investors (HREI), purchased two multifamily apartment communities in Kent, Washington, called Lake Meridian and Royal Firs through an affiliated entity, at a combined purchase price of $79 million. Located in the Seattle metro area, the two properties were owned by the same individual and were purchased as a portfolio. PRG will operate the rental communities and plans to renovate, upgrade, and modernize the properties to offer an attractive option for tenants in the area.

“Seattle is an important target market for growth for PRG”, said Keith Rosenthal, PRG’s president and co-founder. “Given the strength of the local economy, wide-ranging outdoor activities and the presence of employers such as Boeing, Amazon and Microsoft, it is a compelling region for renters of all ages. We expect to acquire additional properties in the Seattle market over time.”

Totaling a combined 361 units, both communities offer amenities which include a leasing center, fitness center, pool, tot lot and covered parking. In addition to seeking to generate a rental premium by renovating units and common areas, the venture believes there is substantial upside in operational efficiencies. The properties will be rebranded under PRG’s proprietary brand, Alvista Communities®, with Lake Meridian being renamed Alvista Lake Meridian and Royal Firs being renamed Alvista 240.

Located approximately 30 minutes from downtown Seattle, Kent has a population of more than 125,000 people and upwards of 60,000 employers. Both communities are accessible to highways, acting as a commuter suburb to the Sound Region’s largest employers, like Boeing in Renton, and tech hubs in downtown Seattle and Bellevue, all approximately 20 miles from the properties.

“The strong population growth of the Seattle market coupled with limited supply in the Kent submarket solidified our decision to partner with PRG,” said Ash Baraghoush, senior director with HREI. “PRG’s experience in renovating and repositioning assets will create significant risk-adjusted returns for the venture.”

Lake Meridian is located five miles east of Kent Station, an open-air urban village in the heart of downtown Kent. It contains a transit station, retail, shopping and dining options across the street from Lake Meridian Park, which features a 150-acre lake with swimming, boating, fishing and picnic areas. Royal Firs is located two miles east of Kent Station and less than one mile from the Clark Lake Park, which offers a wide range of outdoor amenities.

“We are excited to acquire our first two properties in the Seattle area”, said Alex Saunders, managing director and head of west coast acquisitions. “The units and common areas are in original condition which means that PRG has a blank canvas to transform the properties, improve the overall experience for residents and generate value for our investors.”

NEW YORK / NAPLES, FLA. / NORTH LAUDERDALE, FLA. (April 1, 2019) – Phoenix Realty Group (PRG), a national multifamily real estate fund manager, investor and operator, purchased two properties through affiliated entities, one on the east coast of Florida and one on the west coast, in the fourth quarter of 2018. Both properties were purchased with third party partners. Sabal Key, a 200-unit Class B multifamily apartment community in Naples, and Parrots Landing, a 408-unit Class B multifamily apartment community in North Lauderdale, will expand PRG’s presence in the state. PRG will operate both rental communities and plans to renovate, upgrade, and modernize the properties to offer an attractive option for tenants. Debt financing for Sabal Key was arranged by CIT Bank and by Berkeley Point Capital (now known as Newmark Knight Frank) for Parrots Landing.

Sabal Key will be rebranded Alvista Golden Gate under PRG’s proprietary brand, Alvista Communities®. The property was built in 1988 and comprises 25 two-story buildings on a 17.3-acre site. The attractive community offers several amenities, including a swimming pool and sundeck, a clubhouse, two lake-front decks, and a dog park. At the time of the sale, 21 units were unoccupied due to storm damage. Those units will be renovated and receive a rental premium for the upgrade.

“We believe there is significant upside to increase rents through the renovation of the down units, implementation of a comprehensive unit renovation plan, amenity upgrades, and operational and rent management improvements,” said Ron Orgel, managing director of acquisitions for PRG’s eastern United States region. “The previous owners had upgraded only three units, leaving a significant opportunity for us to renovate and enhance most of the remaining units.”

Orgel also emphasized the prime location of the property. “Sabal Key is within minutes of Interstate 75; beautiful white-sand beaches; upscale shopping; health care, government, and tourism employment centers; public and private golf courses; and a plethora of public recreational amenities.”

The property sits across the street from the Golden Gate Community Park, which features a large fitness center, a pool with water slides, athletic fields, a playground, and a large dog park.

Parrots Landing was rebranded Alvista Lauderdale and is consistent with PRG’s strategy to purchase larger apartment communities that offer competitive amenities in their respective markets. The property, built in 1986, comprises 17 three-story walk-up buildings on a 22-acre site with two swimming pools, a clubhouse and fitness center, tennis court, and picnic areas.

“PRG believes significant upside exists through the implementation of a comprehensive in-unit renovation plan, amenity upgrades, introducing typical charges for utilities, exterminator fees, admin fees, etc., and operational and rent management improvements,” said J. Michael Fried,
CEO and founder of PRG.

Located in the Miami-Fort Lauderdale-West Palm Beach metro area, the location offers convenient access to Broward County employment centers, 9 miles northwest of Fort Lauderdale and 12 miles southwest of Boca Raton. PRG also owns a nearby property, Alvista Pembroke Landings, in Pembroke Pines, Florida.

“Parrots Landing was ideal for our multifamily value-added strategy,” Fried said. “The previous owner didn’t upgrade amenities or apartment units, other than installing vinyl plank flooring in some units. We have an overall renovation program to improve the rental marketability of the apartments and the value of the property.”

With the acquisitions, PRG now owns five properties in Florida totaling more than 1,400 units.

The community offers amenities including a swimming pool and sundeck, clubhouse with fitness center, two tennis courts, lakeside gazebo and lake walking/running trail. PRG plans to continue with an improved interior unit renovation program, in addition to completing a number of common area capital improvements. Planned unit upgrades include faux wood flooring in all common areas, new laminate countertops, new kitchen cabinet doors and hardware and faux stainless appliances. Planned common area capital improvements include enhancing the existing amenity package by adding a dog park and dog wash station, outdoor kitchen and fire pit adjacent to the pool area, upgrading the pool area with new furniture and cabanas and converting the lakeside trail to an outdoor fitness trail. The repositioning plan is aimed at creating a contemporary standard for units and the amenities that meet today’s renters’ needs.

Duke University and University of North Carolina – Chapel Hill) and retail and restaurants. In addition, the headquarters of Blue Cross and Blue Shield of North Carolina, totaling 650,000 square feet of office space and 4,000 employees, is directly across the street.

“The property’s location complements PRG’s strategy of purchasing larger assets that have the capacity for competitive amenity offerings,” said J. Michael Fried, PRG’s CEO. “It is located in a growth corridor proximate to prestigious universities and one of the east coast’s predominant technology hubs.”

The city of Durham is in Durham County, the Durham-Chapel metropolitan statistical area (MSA), and the Raleigh-Durham-Chapel Hill CSA. The Durham-Chapel Hill MSA has enjoyed continued economic and employment growth, with job growth of 2.4 percent over the last 12 months (through November), an unemployment rate of 3.9 percent and population growth of 2 percent per year since 2010.

The Raleigh/Durham metro area offers a thriving economy with many skilled and highly educated workers. Durham, in particular, has experienced a revitalization in recent years with new bars, coffee shops, restaurants and start-ups.

NEW YORK/Brandon, Fla. – February 15, 2018 – Phoenix Realty Group (PRG), a national multifamily real estate fund manager, investor and operator, purchased Tuscany Villas Apartments through an affiliated entity.

PRG will operate the rental community and plans to renovate, upgrade and modernize the property to offer an attractive option for tenants in the area.

Ron Orgel, managing director of acquisitions for PRG’s eastern United States region, emphasized the prime location of Tuscany Villas. “The Tampa metro area has enjoyed continued economic and employment

growth from the addition of thousands of jobs in the past few years. Not only is the property close to nearby, multi-generational employers, it is also proximate to restaurants, entertainment, retail and recreation.”

With a thriving economy, Tampa is an attractive area for Millennials and Baby Boomers due to the favorable climate, low crime, lack of major traffic, the proximity to water and vibrant music and nightlife.

As a result of this acquisition, PRG currently owns three properties totaling 850 units in Florida.

With a thriving economy, the unemployment rate in the Denver area is below the national rate and employment growth is expected to continue from 2017 to 2021, according to Axiometrics. The Denver metropolitan area is attractive to renters of all age groups, especially Millennials, due to a high quality of life from a wide range of employment, educational and recreational opportunities including good schools, numerous outdoor and sports-related offerings and an attractive climate which embraces snow in the winter and sunshine approximately 300 days each year.

As a result of this acquisition, PRG now owns more than 1,300 units in Colorado.
