Hendricks & Partners Reports Sales of 3,302 Apartment Units in 2010

ORLANDO - The Orlando office of Hendricks & Partners, the nation’s largest multi-family advisory and research firm, reported it negotiated sales of 10 apartment properties in 2010 that total 3,302 units in the Southeast.

Cole Whitaker, partner who heads the Orlando office of Hendricks & Partners and oversees the firm’s operations throughout the Southeast, said he and associate partner Hal Warren negotiated all 10 multi-family property sales as well as sales of three Florida development sites that total 402 acres.

Multi-family property sales included two student housing properties, Whitaker said.

“We project that transactions involving apartment properties will increase in 2011 as the economy improves,” Whitaker said.

“We don’t foresee significant new construction region-wide,” Whitaker said, “however, in certain submarkets in the southeast, it makes sense to consider new multi-family development and we expect to see some new construction,” he said.

Hal Warren at Hendricks & Partners in Orlando Awarded Certified Apartment Portfolio Supervisor Professional Designation

ORLANDO, Fla. --- Hal Warren, associate partner at Hendricks & Partners in Orlando, was recently awarded the prestigious Certified Apartment Portfolio Supervisor (CAPS) professional designation by the National Apartment Association Education Institute (NAAEI).

Warren said the NAAEI’s CAPS professional designation---one of the Institute’s most difficult professional qualification---requires the successful completion of five rigorous educational courses that total more than 40 hours of classroom time.

CAPS certification also requires two years of experience managing a portfolio of apartment properties.

“CAPS is the industry’s highest certification for professional portfolio managers and according to Cole Whitaker, who heads Hendricks & Partners southeast region, “Warren is one of a few multi-family investment sales brokers in the U.S. to earn the CAPS certification,”
Warren, who earned his Bachelor’s Degree from the College of Business at Florida State University in Tallahassee and his MBA from the University of Central Florida, joined Hendricks & Partners in 2008 and ranks as one of the most active investment sales brokers of multi-family properties and development sites in Florida.

Warren has almost 20 years of experience in the field, in the Florida region at United Dominion Realty Trust, The Apartment Group and Cushman & Wakefield.

Currently Warren is serving a second term as chairman of the City of Orlando’s Historical Preservation Board.

“We are very appreciative of the support Hendricks & Partners and The Oakley Group provided in achieving the 30-day due diligence period and contract parameters to close this transaction in 60 days, said J.

“Abbey Residential was the perfect fit for this deal,” said David Oakley. “They did exactly what they said they would do throughout the entire process—there were no retrades and no extensions. That goes a long way in our industry and demonstrates the high standards of Abbey Residential,” Oakley explained.
