Lindemann Multifamily Management is the seller. The company has $1 billion in multifamily properties in its portfolio.

The 30-acre property has 29 buildings, each two or three stories tall, with one- and two-bedroom apartments with an average size of 862 square feet.

TruAmerica plans to renovate all of the apartments as leases expire by installing faux wood floors, stone counter tops, new cabinet fronts, and updated lighting and plumbing fixtures.

The firm assumed a Freddie Mac fixed-rate loan in connection with its acquisition of Solis at Winter Park and got a supplemental loan arranged by Walker & Dunlop.
