Arbor Realty Trust originated a $74.6 million Freddie Mac loan for the acquisition.

CORE Pacific Advisors has acquired a 394-unit multifamily community in Westminster, Colo., marking the company’s first foray in the Denver area.

According to Yardi Matrix data, the acquisition of Arbour Commons was financed through a $74.6 million Freddie Mac loan originated by Arbor Realty Trust, one of the fastest-growing multifamily mortgage banking and brokerage firms of this year.

Built in 2014, the garden-style community encompasses 19 buildings with studios, one-, two- and three-bedroom units ranging between 552 and 1,252 square feet, the same data provider shows.

The Class A property is surrounded by many dining options, retail spaces and entertainment venues. Large green areas and sports fields, such as Carolyn Holmberg Preserve at Rock Creek, are nearby.
