Aimco Partners with Sixth Street to Advance Its Next Luxury Rental Development
Miami, FL, September 16, 2024 – Apartment Investment and Management Company (“Aimco”) (NYSE: AIV) today announced it has secured $56 million of preferred equity from leading investment firm Sixth Street for the development of a luxury waterfront rental development, located at 560-640 NE 34th Street in Miami, Florida. Affiliates of Apollo (NYSE: APO) provided $172 million of senior construction financing to support the development. Aimco will serve as the developer and asset manager.
The 38-story tower, adjacent to Aimco’s recently completed redevelopment of The Hamilton, will include 114 luxury rental units, a highly tailored amenity package, and ~7k square feet of ground floor retail space. The rental units will average more than 2,500 square feet, feature 9’ – 10’ foot ceilings, oversized private terraces, top-of-the-line finishes, and unobstructed views of Biscayne Bay.
“We are thrilled to advance this exciting project and bring a truly unique rental experience to one of Miami’s fastest growing and most desirable neighborhoods,” said Wes Powell, President and CEO of Aimco. “Our partner’s commitment to the project and the years of good work by the Aimco team in acquiring the land, planning the development, and navigating the capital markets will create meaningful value for Aimco shareholders and the local Miami community for years to come.”
“Miami continues to benefit from strong macroeconomic tailwinds and ongoing in-migration, positioning it as one of the fastest-growing markets in the U.S. We were attracted to this opportunity to deliver a unique, first-of-its-kind rental offering with condominium-quality finishes in Miami’s rapidly evolving Edgewater submarket. This waterfront development represents a significant step in expanding our multifamily footprint in the U.S., while partnering with Aimco, one of the nation’s premier multifamily developers,” said Marcos Alvarado, Head of US Real Estate at Sixth Street. “We look forward to working with the Aimco team to bring this new residential project to life.”
