One of the largest multifamily portfolios ever assembled and sold in Miami’s fast-growing Little Haiti neighborhood has sold for $11.6 million. Secamar LLC sold Buena Vista Gardens, the 89-unit portfolio at 5601 NW First Ave., to Bowery Properties, led by Thomas Neary. The transaction was overseen by DWNTWN Realty Advisors Executive Skyler Marinoff who represented both the buyer and seller in the off-market transaction. City National Bank provided acquisition financing to the buyer which closed on July 23.

“I am thrilled to complete this transaction, which underscores our firm’s creativity, strong relationships and role as a market leader,” Marinoff said. “Little Haiti is seeing significant multifamily investment activity in conjunction with the neighborhood’s overall expansion. Large-scale development in the pipeline for Little Haiti and surrounding neighborhoods will further fuel investor interest.”
