Harbor Group International, LLC (“HGI”), a privately owned international real estate investment and management firm, announced the sale of City Center on 7^th, a Class A, 700-unit apartment community in Pembroke Pines, for $222.65 million.

HGI purchased the property in 2017 for $158.5 million and upon acquisition invested an additional $2.65 million in interior maintenance and upgrades.

The community is also near the Miramar Park of Commerce, an industrial and business park featuring more than 5.4 million square feet of commercial space and housing several employers to the area.

“HGI’s extensive ownership and operating history in South Florida enabled us to leverage our market expertise to execute a successful business plan and generate strong returns on this investment,” said Richard Litton, President, HGI. “The influx of business relocations to South Florida and resulting demand in high-quality multifamily assets for residents demonstrates HGI’s ability to identify and invest in high value markets and present competitive opportunities to our investors.”
