Firm Capital American Realty Partners Corp. (the “Company”) (TSXV: FCA.U) (TSXV: FCA) is pleased to announce it has closed a $20.3 million joint venture located in the Greater Atlanta Area that it previously announced on September 16, 2019.

The Company entered into a joint venture with an unrelated third party to acquire the Riverview Apartments (“Riverview” or the “Property”), a 138-unit, multi-family residential building located in Canton, Georgia. The joint venture is investing approximately $20.3 million (including transaction costs and the capital expenditure program as outlined below) into the property, representing a 5.08% going-in capitalization rate based on the purchase price of $18.35 million or approximately $133,000 per unit ($177 per square foot).

In addition, a capital expenditure program has been implemented into the joint venture to undertake various upgrades to the apartment units, green renovation initiatives, and common areas. This capital expenditure program is anticipated to take two years and is expected to further increase cash flow and be accretive to the joint venture.

The Property was financed, in part, by a new first mortgage for approximately $14.0 million with a 4.0% interest rate. The terms of the financing also include a four-year interest-only period, 30-year amortization and a ten-year term. The remaining capital requirement of approximately $6.3 million is being funded through $3.15 million of common equity held 50% by the Company and 50% by the unrelated third party, and the excess equity of $3.15 million is being funded as preferred equity at an 8% rate, also held by the Company.
