MHProNews has learned from TheRealDeal that Washington, D. C.-based Carlyle Group, one of the world’s largest investment firms with over $178 billion of assets, according to its website, has added 437-homesite Royal Manor Mobile Home Estates in Boynton Beach, Fla. to its portfolio of MHCs.
Financing the deal with a $26.4 million mortgage from Berkadia, Carlyle paid owner Beverlee Miller Raymond $26.4 million for the property, equivalent to $104,000 for each homesite in the community restricted to 55-year old residents. Including a lake and clubhouse, the 85-acre property is situated four miles from the Atlantic Ocean, just south of West Palm Beach.
As MHProNews reported Jan. 18, 2016, Carlyle invested $42 million in Pacific Skies Estates MHC in Pacifica, California to upgrade that community with 93 new manufactured homes that will be rented to residents. That story is linked here.
