Altis Twin Lakes is planned to be a 346-unit luxury multifamily apartment community consisting of thirteen three- and four-story residential buildings offering one-, two- and three-bedroom units with an average size of over 1,000 square feet. The community will be located approximately twenty miles south of downtown Orlando, and its location will offer residents convenient access to Orlando’s major employment, retail, and entertainment hubs due to its proximity to US-441 (Orange Blossom Trail), Osceola Parkway, and Florida’s Turnpike. The Altman Companies expects construction of Altis Twin Lakes to commence in June 2023 and be completed in 2025.

“Harbor Group International is a leading global real estate investment and management firm,” commented Seth Wise, CEO of The Altman Companies and President of BBX Capital Real Estate. “We are excited to partner with such an esteemed group to bring another dynamic multifamily community to Orlando.”

“As economic headwinds continue to impact the market, we see an opportunity to collaborate with experienced development partners with local market knowledge to execute on attractive investment opportunities,” said Richard Litton, President of HGI. “We look forward to partnering with The Altman Companies to capitalize on Orlando’s strong in-migration trends and provide well-located housing that offers access to employment opportunities and lifestyle drivers.”

In connection with the formation of the joint venture with HGI, a consolidated subsidiary of BBX Capital Real Estate that is owned by BBX Capital Real Estate and affiliates of The Altman Companies contributed $3.6 million to the venture with HGI and currently expects to contribute an additional $2.8 million to the venture based on its share of the estimated total development costs.
