ADMIRAL CAPITAL GROUP AND MCCANN REALTY PARTNERS COMPLETE SUCCESSFUL SALE OF DISCOVERY AT RIVER BEND ATLANTA MSA

Atlanta - Admiral Capital Group and McCann Realty Partners announced the successful sale of Discovery at River Bend, a 256-unit multifamily property located in Duluth, GA, in the Atlanta MSA.

Admiral and McCann acquired the apartment community in February 2016 through a joint venture. The investment provided an opportunity to purchase a well-located asset in the fourth largest manufacturing and distribution center market in the United States at a discount to replacement cost.

During its ownership, the joint venture repositioned the property by curing deferred maintenance, enhancing the exterior and upgrading unit interiors. Select improvements included re-siding the entire property, replacing wooden decks, updating the fitness center and installing a new playground amenity. Interior renovations included modernizing kitchen cabinets, appliances and flooring and renovating bathrooms. Overall, the upgrades repositioned the property to compete with higher quality assets with higher overall rents.

“Our strategy is to identify capital-deprived assets in markets with a supply and demand imbalance,” said Dan Bassichis, Co-Founder of Admiral Capital Group. “Discovery at River Bend was an ideal fit and provided the opportunity for our partnership to invest the necessary capital to improve the property and experience for the residents and capture a share of the growing demand and rent growth in the submarket.”

“The team from Pegasus Residential did an excellent job helping us execute our business plan. We were very happy with how the repositioning turned out,” said Thomas Upson, Principal and Managing Director at McCann.

McCann President Matthew Akin said, “We are pleased with the value created by the reposition and renovation. The investment returns exceeded expectations due in part to strong fundamentals and capital markets.”

“The investment in Discovery at River Bend was the continuation of a long-term relationship with McCann,” said Jarett Kaplus, Principal at Admiral. “We have a strong presence in Atlanta and continue to proactively seek additional value-add multifamily investments here and nationwide.”

Derrick Bloom, David Gutting and Hunter Amos, commercial real estate brokers with JLL handled the Discovery at River Bend sale.

The sale represents the first realization for Admiral in its second value-add real estate fund, Admiral Capital Real Estate Fund II, L.P. (“ACRE II”).

John P. Mccann, pioneer of the apartment real estate industry, dies at 73

By JOHN REID BLACKWELL Richmond Times-Dispatch 14 hrs ago

When John P. Mccann joined the forerunner of United Dominion Realty Trust in 1974, he was one of two officers for the first apartment real estate investment trust in the country, a fledgling company with four properties in Virginia.

When he retired as the company's CEO in 2001, the company had grown to become a national business that owned more than $3 billion worth of apartments and had 2,500 employees. That year, the REIT was named the eighth-largest U.S. apartment owner and fifth-largest U.S. apartment manager, with about 78,000 units in 290 communities around the country.

Mr. Mccann, described by colleagues as an "innovator" and "icon" in the real estate investment trust industry, died Monday at his home in Richmond. He was 73.

"He left a great legacy in our industry," said Matthew T. Akin, who worked with Mr. Mccann at Richmond-based United Dominion Realty, which is now UDR Inc. with headquarters in Colorado. Later, Akin succeeded him as president of Henrico County-based Mccann Realty Partners in 2013.

"He was extremely intelligent, and he was very driven," Akin said. "It is tremendous what he built and how he built it from scratch."

Mr. Mccann began as managing officer of United Dominion Realty, which included such duties as accounting and investor relations. He rose within the company as it evolved and grew in the 1980s and 1990s through mergers and acquisitions and becoming publicly traded in 1985.

"I touched a lot of good people along the way," Mr. Mccann said in a 2001 interview with the Richmond Times-Dispatch. "I paid attention to what other people were doing and said, 'Can we do that?' I'm a real believer that you can learn from others."

Mr. Mccann also was a longtime member of the board of directors of the National Multi-Housing Council, a trade association of large apartment owners, and a member of the Urban Land Institute.

He retired as chairman and CEO of United Dominion Realty in 2001 but remained on the board of directors until 2004. He then partnered with Fleet Wallace and Brand Inlow to found Mccann Realty Partners, a company that acquires, develops and manages apartment communities throughout the Southeast, Mid-Atlantic and Texas.

"The short answer is he was not the retiring type," Wallace said of Mr. McCann's decision to start another company. "He had a passion for the apartment business. He was very good at it. Fortunately, we were able to team up and spend 10 years working side by side.

"He had a keen business sense for the fundamentals of the apartment industry. There was a lot going on beneath the surface, but he was very even-keeled and treated everyone with respect. I think anyone would say he was the consummate gentleman."

Mr. McCann's work ethic, along with his sense of humility, may have been a product of his blue-collar upbringing in Youngstown, Ohio, and his service as a Marine Corps rifle platoon commander during the Vietnam War, his colleagues said. Mr. Mccann rarely spoke about his military service, they said.

"All he would say to us was he was fortunate to go through that and make it through OK, because a lot of other guys were not as lucky," Akin said.

He graduated from Notre Dame University in 1966 and received his MBA from New York University in 1968.

When he started with United Dominion Realty Trust in 1974, the REIT industry may have had an equity cap of around $1 billion, and today it is more like $1 trillion, said Tom Toomey, UDR's chairman and CEO.

''.lohn was one of those people who helped an industry get off the ground and helped it grow," Toomey said.

"It was not just about building a company," he said. "He built a lot of people. John was always good about identifying talent and developing talent, and that talent then went through the industry."

Mr. Mccann also was known for his civic and philanthropic work, including improving access to affordable housing. He served on the board and was past chairman of the Better Housing Coalition, a nonprofit affordable housing developer in the Richmond area.

"John contributed greatly to our RVA community at many levels and was instrumental in making BHC stronger and ready for the challenges of making positive community change," said Greta J. Harris, president and CEO of the Better Housing Coalition.

"His passion for both our corporate sustainability as well as advancing our mission was palpable," she said. "Although he loved real estate and he was a giant in that industry, his inspiration was in helping organizations like BHC to create great places to call home so that residents could thrive."

He also served for eight years on the board of the Virginia Housing Development Authority, including as chairman.

"John contributed immensely to the success of VHDA through his extensive knowledge and many years of experience in the housing industry and his deep passion for affordable housing," said VHDA Executive Director Susan Dewey. "He consistently challenged VHDA to find new ways to be innovative and efficient in the funding and administration of its programs. VHDA will greatly miss his advocacy of its mission but will most certainly continue to benefit in the future from John's strong leadership."

Survivors include his wife of 47 years, Rebecca Lee Mccann; two daughters, Stephanie Mccann Sullivan and Shannon Bess Mccann; a son, John Patrick Mccann II; a sister, Barbara Mccann Lehnerd; seven grandchildren and one great-grandchild.

A Mass of Christian Burial will be held at 11 a.m. Saturday at St. Mary's Catholic Church, 9505 Gayton Road. Burial at Greenwood Cemetery will be private.

DURHAM, N.C. -- November 15, 2016 -- Admiral Capital Group (“Admiral”) and McCann Realty Partners (“McCann”) announced the acquisition of Springfield Apartments, a 288-home garden-style community in Durham, North Carolina. The property represents the second acquisition by the Admiral / McCann joint venture.

The 1986 vintage property is located adjacent to the 15-501 corridor, the primary artery linking downtown Durham and Chapel Hill, two of the most vibrant areas within the Research Triangle. Springfield Apartments is located within a two-mile radius of over 1.7 million square feet of office space and is within walking distance of the newly expanded 48-acre headquarters of Blue Cross Blue Shield of North Carolina.

The joint venture plans to invest significant capital to transform the common areas and amenities, upgrade the unit interiors with modern finishes and provide a fresh appearance through an improved exterior. These updates, coupled with the convenient transportation access and abundant retail amenities, will provide an enhanced living experience for prospective residents.

“Having tracked the Triangle for a few years, Springfield Apartments represents an ideal opportunity for Admiral’s first investment in the region,” said Admiral Co-Founder Dan Bassichis. “This acquisition is consistent with our strategy of sourcing well-located assets with strong potential for value creation. Additionally, we’re thrilled to continue our already successful partnership with McCann.”

“Southwest Durham continues to have strong rental growth due to job creation and relatively affordable rents,” said McCann’s Vice President of Acquisitions Thomas Upson. “Springfield will benefit from our planned capital expenditures, which will help us provide a superior experience for our residents. The property’s proximity to leading retail amenities such as Fresh Market and top employers displays the strength of the immediate area.”

McCann President Matthew Akin said, “We are pleased to expand our partnership with Admiral with another acquisition. This asset fits nicely with our strategy to find renovation opportunities where we can create value and benefit from an improving submarket with strong demographic trends.”

“Durham is an attractive market for us and consistently ranks as one of the most desirable cities in the nation,” said Admiral Co-Founder David Robinson. “This acquisition represents another opportunity to continue the Admiral mission of working with like-minded partners who desire to make a positive impact on local communities.”

RICHMOND, VA, BOCA RATON, FL and ZIONSVILLE, IN – June 20, 2011 – Silver Capital -- a division of Silver Companies -- and McCann Realty Partners announced the acquisition of Quail Run Apartments in Zionsville, Indiana. The 166-unit, garden-style community located in the affluent northeast submarket of metropolitan Indianapolis was built in 1972 and will be managed by Buckingham Management, LLC of Indianapolis. Over the next three years the property will be upgraded, including new amenities and redecorated interiors. The acquisition was funded in part by a 10-year Fannie Mae fixed rate loan with a rate of 5.29% originated by Beech Street Capital.

“We’ve had success with our other Indianapolis area apartments,” said Silver Companies CEO Larry D. Silver. “Quail Run provides us with the opportunity to upgrade and reposition a very well located, older community in one of Indianapolis’ best submarkets and to be rewarded for doing it.”

“The property has very large floor plans that are surprisingly functional, given when Quail Run was built,” said John McCann of McCann Realty Partners. “The predominant two bedroom 1,200 square foot townhouse apartment in this location makes Quail Run a unique rental community. We will redecorate the interiors, add amenities and improve the grounds over the next two plus years, as the apartments turn-over, to better position the community to compete over the long-term.”

This transaction continues the affiliation between Silver Capital, a division of the real estate development and investment firm Silver Companies, and McCann Realty Partners, an apartment and investment company. Silver and McCann first worked together in April 2005, forming Silver-McCann Apartment Group, L.P. to acquire apartment communities in the Southeast.

There are also a number of things that we find appealing in the community. For Houston, it has very low density at 12 units to the acre, all of the apartment homes are two-story and have private first floor entrances and 70% of the apartments have attached garages. The community has a great feel and is a very desirable place to live," said John McCann of McCann Realty Partners. "It is a property that can maintain high occupancy, lower turnover and consistently outperform the market."

RICHMOND, VA, BOCA RATON, FL and MCDONOUGH, GA – June 30, 2008 – Silver-McCann Apartment Group II, L.P. ("Silver-McCann") announced the acquisition of Villas at South Point Apartments in Atlanta (McDonough), Georgia. The 284-unit, garden-style community located in the McDonough submarket of metropolitan Atlanta was built in 2006 and will be managed by Signature Management Company. The acquisition was funded in part by a combination of the assumption of an existing Freddie Mac loan with a rate of 6.21% and a second Freddie Mac mortgage with a rate of 6.58% originated by Primary Capital Advisors LC, which also represented the Seller in a real estate brokerage capacity.

With this acquisition, Silver Capital -- a division of Silver Companies -- and McCann Realty Partners have added the fourth asset to their latest apartment investment fund, Silver-McCann Apartment Group II, L.P. Current plans call for the fund to close after its next purchase, expected to bring its total acquisitions to more than $150 million in one-and-a-half years. Since Silver-McCann made its first acquisition in 2005, they have acquired more than 2900 apartment homes in their two funds.

"Villas at South Point is the fourth Atlanta-area apartment community acquired by the Silver-McCann Apartment Group funds. It is a well-located, high-quality community, but its rents are fairly modest," said Silver Companies CEO Larry D. Silver. "We expect Villas at South Point to benefit from the rapid growth that Henry County is expected to continue to experience."

"Villas at South Point is another community that we are acquiring from the original developer. This allows us to come in fresh with new management, a new marketing plan and a different approach to creating value," said John McCann of McCann Realty Partners. "At Villas at South Point, there is the opportunity for strong net operating income growth from occupancy gains, higher net rents and lower operating expenses. We hope to be able to capture such growth during the next two years."

The acquisition was funded in part by a 10-year Fannie Mae fixed rate loan with a rate of 5.495% originated by Deutsche Bank Berkshire Mortgage, Inc.

"We have enjoyed tremendous success working with national builders, developers and other strategic partners," said Silver Capital CEO Larry D. Silver. "When we decided to cast a net for investment in apartment communities, McCann Realty was a name with which we could relate. With more than 120 years of real estate experience among the principals of both companies, we are excited to be working together to build a significant apartment portfolio."

"We had known about Silver Companies for many years and it is ideal for us to partner with a significant real estate organization and benefit from our diverse real estate experiences as we build a strong, regional apartment portfolio. Our first acquisition, Hunter's Glen, provides the opportunity to invest in the Raleigh apartment market at a time when economic occupancies appear to have bottomed and apartment fundamentals are improving," said McCann's founder John P. McCann. "It is the first of many acquisitions that we will be doing together as we build our apartment portfolio."

The principals expect to invest in excess of $100 million over the initial two years of the partnership. Silver-McCann is currently seeking apartment acquisitions in the Mid-Atlantic and Southeast. For more information, please contact Brand Inlow, Director of Acquisitions, at (804) 852-6657.
