DETROIT – January 8, 2021 – Berkadia today announced the $75.13 million in combined financing secured for Dearborn View, Bedford Square and Delta Square Apartments, three garden-style multifamily properties in Michigan. Director Aaron Moll of Berkadia’s Detroit office secured these loans on behalf of Valleytree Partners.
“It has been great working with Valleytree,” said Moll. “They have been performing tremendously well on their Michigan portfolio. Valleytree has created an impressive amount of value at Dearborn View under their ownership. They have greatly improved the housing for their tenants and their investment value. I am sure Bedford Square and Delta Square will be no exception as Valleytree will implement their already proven business plan to create a better community for their residents while optimizing returns for their investors. We have been very impressed with their renovations and property performance on their existing assets. It was great to be a part of these transactions.”
