Bridge Tower and Blackmon Real Estate have established a joint venture called Build-to-Ownership to boost homeownership access in Greater Atlanta. The initiative replaces traditional renting models with a structured lease-to-own system. Led by Jackson Su and Michael S. Render, the program utilizes newly built homes to help families build equity, secure long term financial stability and establish deep roots within their local communities.
JLL has successfully negotiated a refinancing deal for the historic Candler Hotel in Atlanta. The 265-room property, situated in the city’s central business district, is a former office tower built by Coca-Cola mogul Asa Griggs Candler. Now a luxury boutique hotel under Hilton's Curio Collection, the site is famous for its Beaux-Arts architecture and award-winning dining. The financing, provided by Peachtree Group, highlights a positive outlook for Atlanta’s hospitality market.
