On behalf of Berkshire Group, JLL's Capital Markets​ team announced the firm completed the sale of Union Place Apartments, in located in the suburban Boston city of Franklin, Massachusetts. Jones Street Investment Partners purchased the 300-unit Class A multifamily asset.

Managing Directors Travis D'Amato​ and Michael Coyne and Vice Presidents Kevin Gleason and Brendan Shields led the JLL team on the deal. "Investors are finding value in Class A suburban product as Central Business District rents remain on an upward trajectory," said D'Amato.
