Walker & Dunlop Completes $92 Million Sale of Luxury Multifamily Community in Miami's Burgeoning East Little Havana Neighborhood Walker & Dunlop, Inc. announced today that it facilitated the $92,000,000 sale of First Apartments, a luxury midrise apartment community ideally situated less than one mile from both Downtown Miami and Brickell in up-andcoming East Little Havana. Completed in late 2021, the community reached 90% occupancy by January 2022, reflecting an extraordinary initial leasing velocity of nearly 45 leases per month.

Walker & Dunlop's Still Hunter and Kaya Suarez represented the buyer, Lloyd Jones, and the seller, Premium Development, in the transaction. The Walker & Dunlop team acted as advisors and drove a competitive marketing process to ensure an attractive outcome for ownership. This sale represents the first transaction between all three parties as well as Premium Development's first U.S. multifamily project.

"Since opening its doors in late September, First Apartments has enjoyed an increase in lease rates with recent leases signed for more than 25% above initial leases," said Roger Karré, the Chief Operations Officer at Premium Development. "With rental rates that are nearly $500 below communities with comparable finishes and amenities, First Apartments enjoys the enviable position as the best value in the local competitive set. The impressive leaseup performance is a testament to the appeal of the asset and its prime location, proximate to key demand drivers, entertainment venues, and transit routes."

"With the insatiable demand for moderately priced luxury rental options in South Florida, First Apartments meets the growing needs of Miami residents seeking value relative to Brickell and Downtown Miami's rental options," commented Mr. Hunter. "The new community is also an excellent investment opportunity given its proximity to Miami's commercial business district, boasting nearly 22 million square feet of office space and 125,000 jobs."

One of Downtown's Oldest Grand Buildings Celebrates a Centennial While Officially Welcoming a Very Special Occupant to its Attic: Bar La Real White Feather Management has made its mark on South Florida for a bit now. The team who possesses over 25 years of experience and behind many recognized entertainment and nightlife venues (El Patio, La Poderosa, Crusoe and many others) have been known to have a Midas touch. The group also known for being specialists in Latin Nightlife and Dining announced a special venture in the heart of Downtown Miami during the holidays. But now, officially they are sharing what this concept is, or part of we should say. Bar La Real opened its doors recently as part one- of a unique project that will create yet another reason for travelers to visit Miami, and locals to enjoy something created with them in mind. Bar La Real is located at 100 NE 1st Avenue, Miami, FL. Miami is no stranger to fabulous nightlife venues, in fact, the city is known for this all over the world. But those in the hospitality or nightlife industries are constantly aiming to create the next best thing. Either a restaurant, a lounge, a cool bar, the goal is always to attract the public and have them embrace the idea.

But what if patrons did not have to "choose"? What if one location could provide that multi-level experience so familiar to places like New York? The White Feather Team is proudly going to introduce their newest concept…the location will have the capability to welcome hundreds inside the majestic building located in the heart of Downtown Miami.

The prelude to displaying this massive entertainment complex is the official launch of Bar La Real located in the attic of the building. The lounge recently opened its doors allowing the public to experience a "taste" of the overall concept. The chic location was designed to transport guests to a time of opulence. Providing the right ambiance. music programming carefully designed, and curated libations, the "tropi-glam" concept is felt once the ornate elevator doors open. Much like the venue's mascot the peacock, the visual elegance is inarguable.

If dancing or cocktailing in a venue straight out of a Baz Luhrmann movie (a la Great Gatsby) does not sound ritzy, wait until the entire building (once a Historic post office) is activated later this year celebrating its centennial and unveiling The Republic Entertainment Bureau. The collective of seven unique concepts under one roof, will attract locals and visitors creating a Downtown Miami revival. From massive visual art, collaborations with local and recognized artists, the Republic's façade will become part of Miami's artistic landscape speaking to locals and visitors from all over the world. The concepts occupying each floor will make the venue a destination.

For now, catch a glimpse, and enjoy some of the best the city has to offer. Nightlife enthusiasts and eventgoers are invited to visit Bar La Real inside this historically significant building Thursday, Friday, and Saturday.

Miami is always attracting, always shining, and with White Feather Management bringing something so noteworthy (united by art, sensibility, and creativity) to the heart of the city, it will continue to be so. Bar La Real is located at 100 NE 1st Avenue, Miami, FL.

FLIPANY Honors National and Local Partnerships Florida Introduces Physical Activity and Nutrition to Youth (FLIPANY) is honored to have the support of various local and national partners. The Healthy Students Healthy Community Partnership (HSHC) was developed to improve the health of Deerfield Beach Middle School students and families. As part of this initiative, FLIPANY serves as the lead agency and has received a two-year grant to create change and focus on improving the health of the Deerfield Beach community, which was one of 20 communities from 11 states that benefit from the collaboration.

The Healthiest Cities and Counties Challenge funds the HSHC partnership, the American Public Health Association, the Aetna Foundation, and the National Association of Counties and Healthy Places by Design. FLIPANY is proud that the local communities have supported the HSHC partnership, allowing the program to flourish.

Along with our national partners, FLIPANY has had the pleasure of engaging in two outstanding local partnerships: Farm Share and the Children's Services Council of Broward County. Farm Share is a Florida-based nonprofit food bank that provides families in need with fresh produce and healthy food to which they may not otherwise have access. Children's Services Council of Broward County has made it its mission to provide Broward County children with the resources necessary to become healthy and responsible adults.

Incredibly, the market has had the opportunity to reach people beyond South Florida. Recently, a family of three from Kentucky lost everything due to a tornado and came to Deerfield Beach to stay with family in the area. The mom expressed relief knowing that receiving a weekly food supply eases the burden on her family.

FLIPANY, HSHC, Children's Services Council of Broward County, and Farm Share proudly provide families across South Florida access to fresh and healthy foods.
