The Opportunity

A 33-unit property, poorly managed and half-empty

Pinedale is a 33-unit community in Sumter, SC. When we acquired it, the property was poorly managed and in rough shape — barely half the units leased and rents well below market.

Good bones, bad operations: exactly the kind of value-add we look for.

What We Did

Remodeled every unit, then filled the building

Acquired all 33 units in Sumter, SC
Completed a full value-add rehab across every unit
Repositioned rents to market
Leased from 14 of 33 units to 100% occupancy (December to May)
Construction finished; property stabilized, pending permanent financing
Took over day-to-day management in-house
The Result

From half-empty to fully leased

A fully renovated, fully occupied community — turned around and stabilized in a single lease-up season.
