PHILADELPHIA-A new open-ended fund called GoldOller Real Estate Investments based here is looking to buy multifamily assets east of the Mississippi and has at least $200 million to spend, according to its management. GoldOller, affiliated with Multifamily Management Services, is targeting assets in the $10-million to $100-million range.

The firm is looking at secondary cities where there is less competition and targeting value-added and market-rate apartments, as well as fractured condominiums, Jake Hollinger, GoldOllers's senior vice president and director of acquisitions, tells GlobeSt.com. "The hurdles are easier to meet in the secondary and tertiary markets," he says, adding that those locales make the fund a "bigger fish in a more local pond."

So far the fund purchased three apartment complexes, one in Indianapolis and two in Greenville, NC. Hollinger says it paid "north of $20 million" for the properties.
