Hunt Mortgage Group provided a $10 million conventional Fannie Mae DUS® loan to Richland Living LLC, for the acquisition of a multifamily asset in San Antonio. The Richland Apartments is a 192-unit garden-style community located in the San Antonio-New Braunfels MSA.

The acquisition loan was sourced through Steve Sieling with Azur Commercial Capital LLC. Loan terms include a 12-year term, 30-year amortization period and an 11.5-year yield maintenance period. According to Yardi Matrix data, the loan is tied to the transaction in which the asset was sold by Thayer Residential for $13.3 million to Lev Investments.

The property was built in 1984 and consists of 14 two-story buildings distributed on 7.5 acres at 7791 Woodchase Drive. In addition, the property features a single-story leasing office building and an attached two-story clubhouse. The unit mix includes one- and two-bedroom floor plans averaging 728 square feet. Community amenities include a fitness center, common laundry facility, business center, game room, tennis court, outdoor swimming pool and spa. The units, recently upgraded by the previous owner, feature fireplaces, vaulted ceilings, exterior storage, and private balconies/patios.
