Berkadia announces it has arranged the refinancing of Vista Verde at Deerwood, a 208-unit garden-style apartment community in the Kendall submarket of Miami. Senior Managing Director Charles Foschini, Managing Director Christopher Apone and Senior Analyst Shannon Wilson of Berkadia Miami secured the financing on behalf of RILEA Group, a real estate management and development company based in Miami, Fla.

State Farm provided the 10-year, fixed-rate loan, with interest only.

“Kendall is experiencing resurgent demand and scarce vacancies, now one of the lowest in the metro, which has led to a year-over-year rent growth of 17.9 percent,” said Foschini
