NAI Tampa Bay has realigned its multifamily
division in response to the number of distressed
apartment properties that are expected to go on
the market statewide in the coming year. JOHN
BURPEE will retain the lead broker position as
division president, while Sean Lance has been
promoted to president and Brad Carter vice
president of troubled asset optimization for the
multifamily division.
“We feel this staff realignment is positive for our clients,” says
Burpee, an apartment broker in the Tampa Bay market for more
than 20 years. “Our firm was built on long-term relationships and
reducing the amount of brokers with overlapping responsibilities
brings us closer to our core group of clients.”
Burpee notes that Tampa Bay led all of Florida with 28 multifamily
transactions of properties having at least 50 units over a one-year
period ending in the third quarter. That level of transactions “is
a sign that investors maintain a favorable long-term view of the
area,” he says.
Lance adds that nearly half of those transactions are classified
as distressed. “We are currently working on assignments
throughout the state with local, regional and national lenders and
special servicers,” he says, “and feel this is going to drive our
business over the next 24 months.”—REFLA
