Continental Properties, a national developer and operator of rental communities, retail, and hospitality properties, proudly announces the acquisition of Sixteen30, a premier multifamily apartment community located at 14750 Wallin Drive in Plainfield, Illinois.

The acquisition of Sixteen30 was funded by Continental Properties' eighth real estate fund, Continental Properties Real Estate Opportunities Fund I, L.P. The Opportunities Fund, which recently held its final closing with total capital of $105 million, focuses on acquiring predominantly Class A multifamily apartment communities in suburban markets. "This is the first of many future acquisitions for Continental," said Dan Sell, Vice President of Acquisitions. "We are actively seeking additional investments for the Opportunities Fund throughout our current market footprint." "With the acquisition of Sixteen30, Continental Properties underscores its commitment to providing exceptional living spaces in thriving communities," said Aaron Konop, Director of Acquisitions.

Continental Properties Company, Inc. (“Continental Properties”) a privately held national multifamily and commercial real estate developer, owner, and operator has announced the closing of its eighth commingled real estate fund, Continental Properties Real Estate Opportunities Fund I, L.P. The Fund recently held its final closing with total capital of $105 million which will be utilized to acquire predominantly multifamily apartment communities in markets where Continental currently operates. James Schloemer, Co-Founder and CEO of Continental Properties and Chairman of the National Multifamily Housing Council (NMHC) stated, “The Opportunities Fund represents a new offering from Continental Properties and is an attractive complement to our other investment funds. Launched on the success of previous funds including our Income Funds and Development Funds, we created the Opportunities Fund to take advantage of the current dislocation in the real estate market. There has been a lot of news over the last several months highlighting rising interest rates and the resulting distress in capital markets, particularly in real estate. We believe the weaker capital structure (overreliance on floating rate debt) of many recent real estate projects offers interesting and potentially rewarding acquisition opportunities for well-capitalized general partner operators and investors.”
