A 126-unit piece of a Little Rock apartment project is under new ownership after a $4.4 million sale.

Cantrell Heights LLC, led by John Bailey, bought a 4.9-acre portion of Valley Heights Apartments at 6900 Cantrell Road from Centennial Bank of Conway.

The deal is financed with a five-year loan of $4.48 million from the bank.

Centennial recovered the property in March at a $2 million foreclosure sale. The previous owner was Valley Heights Apartments Ltd., led by David Henry.

The property previously was tied to an April 2004 mortgage of $4.4 million held by a Centennial predecessor, Twin City Bank of North Little Rock.
