ORLANDO, FL - FCP closed on a $16.7 million preferred equity investment through its Structured Investments platform to finance Royal Palm at Nona, a 320-unit, Class A multifamily development adjacent to Lake Nona in Orlando, FL. The project, located at 14630 New Creek Avenue, is being developed by Royal Palm Companies, a leading institutional-quality sponsor with a track record of delivering best-in-class residential communities.
"FCP is actively deploying capital to support high-quality developments in growth-oriented markets and Lake Nona is a prime example of the type of submarket where we see long-term opportunity," said Bruce Gago, who leads FCP's Florida office. "This transaction underscores our ability to provide flexible, strategic capital to experienced sponsors like Royal Palm Companies, who are developing in-demand housing in supply-constrained markets."
Billy Herbert, a leader on FCP's development team, added, "Royal Palm at Nona will deliver a highly amenitized, modern residential community in one of Orlando's most dynamic submarkets. With proximity to the Central Florida Greenway, Florida's Turnpike, and Orlando International Airport, the project will benefit from sustained demand fueled by the area's booming health and life sciences industry, anchored by the renowned Medical City master-planned district."
"With Royal Palm at Nona, we are setting a new standard for luxury living in one of Orlando's most dynamic and innovative communities," said Dan Kodsi, CEO of Royal Palm Companies.
