DALLAS–In the first two months of this year, 12 multifamily transactions totaling 3,699 units were completed in Dallas, Houston, Halthom City and San Antonio. The cumulative sales price was $317 million.

IPA Texas executive director Will Balthrope and senior director Drew Kile worked the deal with assistance from team members Joey Tumminello in Dallas/Fort Worth, Jordan Featherston in Austin/San Antonio and Jennifer Campbell in Houston.

“The outlook for Texas multifamily investments this year is very positive, and the capital market remains robust for both sellers and buyers,” says Balthrope. “Debt and equity are readily available and long-term, risk-adjusted returns for multifamily assets in large markets such as Dallas/Fort Worth, Houston, Austin, San Antonio and smaller, secondary markets throughout the state are outstanding.”

Investors continue to be drawn to Texas by our state's significant job and population growth.”
