HOUSTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Camden Property Trust (NYSE: - ) today announced the sale of five multifamily communities with 1,576 apartment homes for $96.25 million, and its exit from the Greensboro, NC market. The properties sold included: Camden Glen, a 304-home apartment community in Greensboro, NC; Camden Wendover, a 216-home apartment community in Greensboro, NC; Camden Eastchase, a 220-home apartment community in Charlotte, NC; Camden Timber Creek, a 352-home apartment community in Charlotte, NC; and Camden Isles, a 484-home apartment community in Tampa, FL. Proceeds from the asset sales will be used to pay down the Companys unsecured line of credit and fund its stock repurchase and development programs.

The sales price represented a blended cap rate of 5.3% based on projected 2007 net operating income for the five communities after a 3.0% management fee and $650 per unit in capital expenditure reserves. The five communities had an average age of 23 years and a weighted average monthly rental rate of $624 per home.

We are pleased to have completed this transaction at a very attractive price and cap rate, said Richard J. Campo, Camdens Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. The sale of these assets provides us with capital to re-invest in future opportunities with higher growth potential. In addition, by selling our older assets and recycling capital into development, we are maintaining a high quality portfolio with one of the lowest average age per community in the industry.
