LAW FIRM ON DEED: Vinson & Elkins LLP, Austin, Texas


PLANS, DESCRIPTION: Austin, Texas-based Campus Advantage and an unnamed state pension fund purchased the 196-unit, 722-bed Sterling 42nd Street student housing community for $41.5 million.


The price equated to $211,735 per unit or $57,479 per bed.


Built in 2009, the complex was 98% occupied at the time of the sale. It features two pools, a cyber cafe, a fitness center and a tanning salon. Most of its residents attend the University of South Florida.

“We were very familiar with the market and product type,” says Michael Orsak with acquisition services for Campus Advantage. “We are always looking to acquire well-located, stabilized assets.”


Campus Advantage manages more than 30,000 beds in 52 locations nationwide, including the Campus Lodge in Tampa, which also houses USF students.
