ANCRE Group represented the buying group that acquired the Wyngate Townhome Apartments in Garland. The property was identified as potentially coming up for sale while verifying rent comps for another deal we were working on. A listing agreement had just been signed with another broker, but our buying group was able to make a strong offer before the property went on the market, and was able to subsequently acquire the property before it was marketed.
