PHILADELPHIA, Sept. 17, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Resource Apartment REIT III, Inc. (the “REIT”), through its operating partnership, completed the purchase of The Park at Kensington, an apartment community located in the prospering market of Tampa, Florida. Built in 1990, the 204-unit community features a resort-style, multi-level pool, remodeled clubhouse, lakeside family BBQ area, and lighted tennis court.
The Park at Kensington provides direct access to both work and leisure, with over 47 million square feet of office space within 20 minutes of the property, along with high-end retailers, banks, and restaurants just across the street. Residents can also access premier entertainment destinations like Bass Pro Shops, Dave & Buster’s, and Topgolf in a matter of minutes.
