Capital Square Launches Offering to Fund Development of Single Family Build-For-Rent (BFR) Community Near Dallas
DALLAS (Jan. 23, 2023) – Capital Square, one of the nation’s leading sponsors of tax-advantaged real estate investments and an active developer of multifamily and single-family communities, announced today the launch of Capital Square Denton BFR, LLC. The LLC has been formed to raise approximately $22 million in equity from accredited investors to develop a 195-unit single family build-for-rent (BFR) community in the Dallas suburb of Denton, Texas. Capital Square has partnered with Good + West Residential and Montgomery Street Partners as co-developers on the project.
Capital Square has formed the Private Equity Group managed by experienced real estate executives, Dave Platter and Jon Trott, as managing directors and co-heads, to profit from opportunities in the housing market, including a dedicated build-for-rent strategy in high growth Texas and sunbelt markets.
“Capital Square is known for its tax-advantaged real estate offerings that provide tax deferral/exclusion, stable income and capital appreciation for thousands of investors nationwide,” said Louis Rogers, founder and co-chief executive officer of Capital Square. “Many investors and their advisors have requested additional real estate investments that generate superior risk adjusted returns in a shorter time horizon. This development LLC offering fits the bill for those investors and their advisors and is the first of many development offerings to follow.”
Located at 2205 N. Bonnie Brae Street, the 18-acre development will include a mix of one-, two- and three-bedroom single-family properties that average 1,005 square feet. Amenities will include a community pool, fitness center, business center, dog park, pavilion and pickleball court. The community will be developed and marketed under the Perch brand.
With direct access to Interstate 35 and University Drive, Denton’s primary east and west thoroughfares, residents will have direct access to downtown Denton, Frisco, McKinney, Dallas Fort Worth International Airport, Fort Worth and Dallas.
“The demand for build-for-rent living continues to grow because it offers the financial and leasing flexibility of a rental with the amenities and convenience of a professionally managed property,” said Whitson Huffman, co-chief executive officer. “Comparable build-for-rent communities in the Dallas-Fort Worth area have achieved significant rental premiums over nearby multifamily housing, which makes Denton an ideal location for Capital Square to expand its build-for-rent footprint.”
Denton experienced 12.7% rent growth in 2021 and an additional 15% growth in rent through the third quarter of 2022, according to Yardi Matrix. Home values in Denton have also risen significantly in recent years, with a 26% increase in 2022 alone, as reported by Walker and Dunlop. The city benefits from a strong and stable employment base centered around education, healthcare and manufacturing. Major employers include the University of North Texas, Denton Independent School District, Texas Women’s University, Texas Health Presbyterian Hospital Denton and Peterbilt Motors.
The planned community is in close proximity to more than a dozen shopping and dining options. The adjacent Rayzor Ranch Marketplace features Walmart, Sam’s Club and HEB. Immediately to the south is Rayzor Ranch Town Center, which contains an array of fast casual and sit-down dining options, including In-N-Out, Chipotle, Chili’s and more.
