Cushman & Wakefield (NYSE: CWK) has arranged the $93.53 million sale of three multifamily properties in Birmingham, Alabama, totaling 1,816 units. Josh Jacobs and Jimmy Adams of Cushman & Wakefield represented the seller, a Texas-based real estate firm, in the transaction, which is the largest in the Birmingham market in the last five years.
