Tides Equities Buys North Dallas Apartments

Tides at Lakewood

Tides Equities has continued its expansion within Dallas with the acquisition of the 252-unit Lakewood Greens. The seller was AHC Funds, Dallas County records show.

The buyer secured acquisition financing of $42.4 million from Asia Capital Real Estate (ACRE), public records show. The new owner rebranded the property as Tides at Lakewood. 

The asset last traded in 2014, when AHC purchased it from FPA Multifamily, according to Yardi Matrix data. The new acquisition retires three CMBS loans encumbering the property that were set to mature next year. The financing included an assumed loan in the amount of $13.2 million and two additional notes of $4.5 million and $3 million.
