A portfolio of more than 100 apartment units in South Beach is hitting the market and is expected to sell for $27 million according to Cushman & Wakefield, The Real Deal has learned.

Boardwalk Properties owns the six renovated properties at 1501 Michigan Avenue, 1100 10th Street, 942 Lenox Avenue, 1606 West Avenue, 1135 Eighth Street and 1521 Michigan Avenue, property records show.

Cushman & Wakefield’s Calum Weaver, Perry Synanidis, Robert Given, Zachary Sackley and Troy Ballard are marketing the Lux South Beach portfolio, according to a release.

Boardwalk Properties made headlines in 2016 when it paid $59 million for a 15-property, 240-unit portfolio of apartments, also in Miami Beach. Boardwalk is only looking to sell one of the buildings it acquired in 2016, a 12-unit, 7,200-square-foot building with apartments averaging 600 square feet.
