Hudson Advisors Obtains $118M for Houston-Area Acquisitions
Natixis provided the financing for the purchase of two adjacent communities in Stafford, Texas.
Hudson Advisors, an affiliate of Lone Star Funds, secured $118 million in financing for the acquisition of 1879 at The Grid and Arc at The Grid, two adjacent multifamily properties totaling 931 units in Stafford, Texas. The seller was JLB Partners.
Natixis Corporate & Investment Banking provided the floating-rate loan. The recently completed communities are part of The Grid, a $500 million mixed-use redevelopment project of a former Texas Instruments Campus. Besides multifamily housing, The Grid also includes retail, office and hotel components.
