FCP ACQUIRES SOMERSET APARTMENTS IN CHARLOTTE, NC FOR $18.0 MILLION


FCP℠ announces the $18.0 million acquisition of Somerset Apartments, a 240-unit garden apartment community on Ventura Way in Charlotte, NC. The workforce housing community is located adjacent to FCP’s Hunters Pointe property, providing operational efficiencies in a submarket where the company’s approach to repositioning and renovating communities has been well received by residents. The acquisition was achieved through a $10.3 million loan assumption with Fannie Mae.

“Somerset Apartments adds to FCP’s portfolio of workforce housing communities, providing residents with one of the most affordable options in the Charlotte region,” said FCP Vice President, Alex Cathcart. Pinnacle Management, who also operates the neighboring Hunters Point community, has been retained to manage Somerset.

Somerset Apartments feature studio, one-, two- and three-bedroom apartments in a quiet setting with mature trees and landscaping. Amenities include a clubhouse, swimming pool and grilling area, a sports court and immediate access to public transportation and the LYNX Light Rail Blue Line extension.

FCP extends its appreciation to Brooks Colquitt and the Cushman & Wakefield Southeast Multifamily Advisory Group for representing the seller.
