Revitate Cherry Tree has acquired Walnut Trails, a 210-unit garden-style community in Elkhart, Indiana, for $22.5 million and Beech Grove, a 182-unit community in Jeffersonville, Indiana, for $22 million.
According to RevCT co-founder and general partner Chris Marsh, the acquisition of these Indiana communities advances the overall RevCT strategy of preserving and enhancing workforce housing opportunities for families across the Midwest.
RevCT Co-Founder and General Partner Alex Bhathal adds that both Indiana properties acquired by the firm cater to working-class Americans, predominately those employed by local governments or in industries like health care, manufacturing, logistics and education.
The workforce multifamily communities acquired include:
Beech Grove
Built in 1972 and renovated in 2006, Beech Grove is a 182-unit community located in Jeffersonville, Indiana, part of the Louisville MSA and less than a 15-minute drive to downtown Louisville.
Several major employment hubs are located in close proximity to the property, including The River Ridge Commerce Center, which is located less than four miles away from Beech Grove and home to more than 60 companies including Amazon, Bose, Collins Aerospace, Enjoy Life Foods, Medline and Optum.
