Residential-hospitality operator Sentral enters Fort Lauderdale and grows its San Diego footprint, bringing its total market presence to 22 cities.
Sentral, a Denver-based full-building residential-hospitality operator, announced Thursday it has added two new communities to its portfolio, extending its national reach to 22 markets. The expansion includes a new property in Fort Lauderdale and a second location in San Diego, underscoring the company's strategy of targeting high-demand urban and coastal markets.
