RADCO Expands GA Footprint With 38th Acquisition

The RADCO Cos. completed its seventh acquisition of the year with the closing of the 260-unit Ashford 6860 in Norcross, Ga. RADCO financed the $22 million transaction with private capital and debt furnished by Hamilton State Bank. The company’s proprietary management platform, RADCO Residential, will manage Ashford 6860.

Located at 6860 Bebout Drive on roughly 13 acres in Northeast Atlanta, the Class B asset is just a few miles away from interstates 285 and 85. Ashford 2860 is minutes from major retail outlets such as The Forum and Sugarloaf Mills, Gwinnett Place Mall or Sugarloaf Marketplace. Built in 1974, Ashford 6860 consists of 15 two- and three-story buildings. Averaging 874 square feet, the garden-style apartments feature 147 one-, 117 two- and 16 three-bedroom floorplans. According to Yardi Matrix data, amenities include:

  • swimming pool
  • clubhouse
  • fitness center
  • expansive greenspace
  • tennis court
  • playground
  • 450 parking spaces

Renovation plans  

Formerly known as Tuscana Apartment Homes, the community will soon undergo a $4 million revamp. The new owner intends to make significant building renovations, unit interior upgrades and enhancements to common area amenities, including a complete clubhouse remodel, expansion of the fitness center, adding a fire pit/grilling area, upgrades to the pool and installing a package concierge system. RADCO also plans to replace all the roofs.

“After we initiate our robust capital improvements plan, Ashford 6860 will be one of the best value-added communities in this suburban market. The population growth in Gwinnett County has been astounding and is a key macroeconomic indicator we look for in RADCO acquisitions,” said The RADCO Cos. Founder & CEO Norman Radow, in a prepared statement.

Gwinnett County is one of the fastest growing suburbs of Atlanta. Since 2000, the population in the county has increased by 36 percent. The area is currently home to more than 120 international corporate headquarters. RADCO now owns 26 multifamily properties in metro Atlanta.

He pleaded guilty to murder late last year, now the case of a maintenance worker who killed a Blinn student is back in court. The parents of 20-year-old Jenna Verhaalen are suing the Bryan apartment complex where she was killed. Verhaalen was strangled at the Autumn Woods Apartments in 2008, by 27-year-old maintenance worker Jeremiah Rosser . The suit claims Autumn Woods ignored complaints made about Rosser. Specifically, a complaint they claim Jenna made to Rosser's boss, when he entered her apartment while she was in the shower. The suit alleges the complex's negligence led to Jenna's death.

Back then, a spokesperson said Jenna complained to the maintenance supervisor about Jeremiah Rosser , but never filed a complaint with the office. Rosser quit his job at Autumn Woods several day

Charlotte affordable housing forum raises possible solutions

There’s a big demand for more affordable housing in Charlotte, where rents and home prices have shot up much faster than wages over the past few years. Many of the apartments being built now target more affluent renters, waitlists for housing vouchers are long and starter homes are snapped up almost immediately. So why aren’t developers building more affordable housing ? That was one of the main questions at a candidate education panel hosted by the Greater Charlotte Apartment Association on Friday, where about two dozen candidates for Charlotte City Council turned out to learn some of the basics on a complicated subject. “ Affordable housing is one of the topics you’ll talk about a lot,” Bryan Holladay, who supervises the group’s government affairs outreach , told the candidates. The subject is an alphabet soup of acronyms (like NOAH, or “ Naturally Occurring Affordable Housing ”) and overlapping terms and definitions. Sometimes when people say “ affordable housing ” they mean go
