Kerrville and Round Rock, Texas

Property Age

Emerald Cottages of Kerrville was built in 2019 and Emerald Cottages of Round Rock was built in 2018, indicating that both properties are relatively new active adult communities.

The portfolio comprises two recently built active adult properties in Kerrville and Round Rock, Texas, totaling 64 units at 100% occupancy. The transaction is structured with 0% LTV and no debt service obligations, generating a Year 1 income rate of 4.50%. Total equity required is $32,700,000.

Strengths & considerations

Key strengths

  • Zero-Debt Capital Structure

    0% LTV

    The all-cash structure eliminates lender covenants, interest rate volatility, and refinancing exposure over the 10-year term.

  • Full Occupancy & Modern Vintages

    100% Occupancy

    Both communities were recently built (Round Rock in 2018, Kerrville in 2019) and are fully occupied.

  • Established DST Sponsor

    130+ DSTs / $2.6B AUM

    Capital Square maintains an audited full-cycle multifamily DST track record with over 130 offerings completed since 2012.

Key considerations

  • Offering Price Premium

    21.56%

    The $32,700,000 offering price reflects a 21.56% premium over the $26,700,000 acquisition price and 82.26% appraised-to-offering ratio.

  • Front-End Load & Fees

    $3,155,550 Fees

    Total front-end fees of $3,155,550 represent a 9.65% load on equity, rising to $6,000,000 (22.47% of acquisition cost) including all reserves.

  • Small Portfolio Scale

    64 Units

    The portfolio consists of only 64 total units across two boutique properties, which increases operational sensitivity to tenant turnover.

The offering carries zero debt risk with an all-cash 0% LTV capital structure. Both properties are relatively new (2018 and 2019 vintage) and maintain 100% occupancy. Sponsor Capital Square brings substantial experience with over 130 completed DST offerings and $2.6B in AUM.
