ATLANTA—Cortland Partners has acquired a whopping 2,237 multifamily units—mostly in the Atlanta region—for $244 million. Four of the multifamily communities are in the Atlanta MSA; one is in the Dallas MSA.

Cortland got the deals done, in part, through equity generated via its new alliance with two institutional capital partners.
