BLADENSBURG, MD-The Phoenix, a three-tower, 447-unit high-rise apartment building here, has traded for $48.6 million, or $108,725 per unit. The seller is Federal Capital Partners with Angelo, Gordon and Co. and The Donaldson Group. The buyer was not disclosed but a source tells GlobeSt.com that it is an entity called Florida Value Partners. The building is located near the intersection of the Baltimore-Washington Pkwy and Annapolis Rd.

As with much of its portfolio, FCP scooped up The Phoenix as a value add play. The owners stabilized and repositioned it, says FCP Managing Partner Alex Marshall in a prepared statement. "A major renovation, along with common area and recreational improvements, has brought this well-located and prominent property back to life with a stabilized occupancy of 95%," he says.

Renovations included new facades, new windows, landscaping improvements, pool and playground renovations, elevator modernizations, new mechanical and plumbing systems and fencing and security upgrades.
