Security Properties and Enterprise Community Investment have acquired Hickory Hollow Towers and Colony Square Apartments in metro Nashville, Tenn. The two fully affordable communities comprise 234 units and will be managed by Security Properties Residential. Both properties are slated for renovations.
The two assets mark the 10th and 11th venture between the two buyers, as well as Security Properties’ first affordable properties in Tennessee.
Hickory Hollow Towers is a 154-unit age-restricted and fully affordable housing community situated in Antioch, Tenn. The property offers a fitness center, a community room, a beauty salon, a gazebo, elevators, laundry facilities and parking spaces.
Security Properties purchased the community for $28.7 million from LHP Capital, according to Yardi Matrix data. Berkadia arranged the $22.5 million Fannie Mae loan, the same source shows. The property last traded in 2008, when The Mid-America Management sold it for $9.4 million.
