ARLINGTON, Va. -- GMAC Commercial Mortgage (GMACCM) has arranged $107,122,000 in floating-rate refinancing for a four-property multifamily portfolio containing 1,070 units in Maryland and Virginia. The financing will allow for the sale of the units in one of the properties, The Brittany Apartments in Arlington, Va., as condominiums.
GMACCM Vice President Marvin Hill of the Washington, D.C., loan origination office arranged the transaction through GE Capital for borrower, RDI Apartment Acquisition LLC, a joint venture between principal ROSS Development & Investment and a GMACCM affiliate. Hill commented, "GE Capital worked closely with the borrower to complete this highly-structured, complex transaction in a short time frame at the end of the year."
Shortly after acquiring the properties in 2003, the joint venture began renovating and repositioning these assets. In the original transaction, GMACCM provided $40 million in preferred equity in addition to joint-venture equity financing. GMACCM's affiliate was advised by GMAC Institutional Advisors on the equity investment.

The property offers garage parking, public transportation, a fitness center, swimming pool, secured access with security cameras, tennis courts, business center, party activity room and concierge desk.
"There is a great deal of excitement about selling the individual units of The Brittany Apartment Community as condominiums," said Hill. The sale of the 408 individual units will commence in the spring of 2005.
