The acquisition is on behalf of a Delaware statutory trust investment offering that seeks to raise $35.2 million in equity from accredited investors

“Villas at Ridgeview Falls is the next in the line of highly-amenitized, newly constructed, Class A apartment communities acquired by Capital Square for the 1031/DST program,” said Louis Rogers founder and chief executive officer of Capital Square. “Capital Square was drawn to the location of this property – Olathe, the seat of Johnson County, 20 miles southwest of Kansas City, where the economy is strong, with 4.4% job growth and a 3.5% unemployment rate as of September 2021.¹ The property should provide investors with stable income during the holding period and exceptional appreciation potential.”

Located at 11835 S. Fellows St., the community is located in the southwest corner of the Kansas City, MO-KS Metropolitan Statistical Area. The property’s location near major highways and interstates provides residents with convenient access to Kansas City employment centers.

CS1031 Villas at Ridgeview Falls Apartments, DST seeks to raise $35.2 million in equity from accredited investors and has a minimum investment requirement of $50,000.

“The proximity to grocery stores and dining options, as well as Kansas City employment centers, coupled with its top-of-the-line features, make this community an ideal investment property for our growing portfolio of multifamily properties,” said Whitson Huffman, chief strategy and investment officer. “The submarket has ideal fundamentals that match exceptionally well with Capital Square’s multifamily acquisition criteria. For example, the population within a five-mile radius of the property is projected to increase 4.4% in five years and the average annual rent growth in the submarket is projected to grow 3.78% from 2021 to 2026.”²

Capital Square acquired the property from J.A. Murphy Group, which was represented by Colliers’ Will Mathews.

“It’s an honor to represent our friends and clients at J.A. Murphy Group on a landmark sale in fast-growing Olathe, Kansas,” said Mathews. “Congratulations and many thanks to the buyer, Capital Square, on their continued success and dedication to a seamless year-end close!”
