“We are honored to be the real estate partner chosen by the sellers and warmly welcome these new investors to the Flagship REIT family,” added Charles Campbell, CEO and co-managing partner.
Flagship will work collaboratively with Mr. Shuford to provide property and asset management services.
Financing for this transaction was provided by First National Bank.
