$13.55M acquisition financing secured for Class A multifamily property in Scarborough, Maine
BOSTON, April 22, 2026 – JLL Capital Markets announced today that it has secured $13.55 million acquisition financing for Carrier Woods, an 84-unit Class A multifamily property in Scarborough, Maine.
JLL worked on behalf of the borrower, Chestnut Realty Management, in arranging the seven-year, fixed-rate loan through Fannie Mae. The loan will be serviced by JLL Real Estate Capital, LLC.
Carrier Woods Apartments, located in Scarborough, sits just six miles south of Portland, Maine's largest employment hub. The property offers strategic access to Interstate 295, Interstate 95 and Route 1, providing ease of connectivity throughout Maine and to neighboring states. The immediate area features abundant retail, dining and entertainment options, including The Maine Mall and Scarborough Gallery, the state's most-visited community shopping center.
Carrier Woods Apartments, built in 2018, comprises seven three-story residential buildings featuring 80 market-rate and four affordable units. The modern apartment community offers a mix of one- and two-bedroom floor plans with contemporary finishes, stainless steel appliances and vinyl flooring. Residents enjoy amenities including on-site parking, garden plots, an enclosed dog park and rentable storage units.
JLL Capital Markets’ Debt Advisory team was led by Managing Director Henry Schaffer, Director Mike Shepard, Director Madeline Joyce and Associate Hunter Cuthbertson.
"Scarborough is one of the fastest growing submarkets in Maine, and will continue to show sustained tenant demand given current housing shortages in the region,” said Schaffer. "Carrier Woods Apartments represents a compelling long-term investment strategy for Chestnut, which is continuing to expand its multifamily presence in the Greater Portland market.”
