This Week's Atlanta Deal Sheet: Buckhead Office Complex Trades At A Discount

An Atlanta office tower has traded at a discount over its sales price almost a decade ago.

Ameris Center In Buckhead.

B Group Capital Management purchased Ameris Center, the two-building, 532K SF office complex in Buckhead at 3490 and 3500 Piedmont Road, for $81M, 10% less than what Atlanta Property Group paid for it nine years ago, the Atlanta Business Chronicle reported.

The Miami-based investment group funded the acquisition with a $61.9M loan from Truist Bank that matures in June 2029 in what is described as a short sale, according to the ABC, citing property records from Databank Inc. Truist also originated the previous loan on the property, which sold for $90M in 2015, the outlet reported.

In a statement to the ABC, Atlanta Property Group co-founder Jonathan Rodbel said the sale price was reflective of the current market for office buildings, not the asset’s performance.

SALES

McKibbon Equities’ McKibbon Income Fund I purchased the Courtyard Atlanta Buford Mall of Georgia, a 110-room hotel next to the Mall of Georgia, from an affiliate of Hotel Equities for an undisclosed sum. Synovus Bank provided debt financing. Gwinnett County appraised the hotel’s value at $8.25M this year, according to records.

Hunter Hotel Advisors Senior Vice President David Perrin brokered the sale.
