This flagship Athens asset is adjacent to UGA and Downtown and comprises 36 units + 119 beds. It was originally constructed in 1897, but was converted to loft apartments in 1977 and then an extensive value-add was completed from 2018 - 2023. Farmers Exchange is currently 100% Occupied and 92.4% Pre-Leased for AY 25-26 with average rents at only $768/ bed.

Farmer's Exchange has been well maintained throughout the years. In 2018, the 300 Building had floors refinished, ceiling height increased and a full interior/ exterior paint. All common area lighting was replaced, a laundry room was added, alongside common area updates to include a pool table, package lockers, study rooms, nest thermostats and updated exterior signage. Current ownership resealed the flat TPO roof in January 2020 and in 2021 performed a Green Loan update which included adding solar film protective to all windows, adding weather stripping to all doors/ windows and adding low flow shower heads. In 2023, 10 HVAC units were replaced and they also replaced and upgraded the entire fire monitoring system (including electrical and conduit).
