Knightvest Capital, a vertically integrated multifamily investment firm, announced the acquisition of the Encore Apartments, located in the Legacy area of Plano in North Texas.
The Encore is a three-story, 240-unit community of one- and two-bedroom apartment homes constructed in 2013. The property also boasts a resort-style pool and fitness center. Knightvest plans to transform the community by renovating the unit interiors, modernizing the property amenities, and adding a resident lounge to further support the live-work-play environment for residents.
The community is located in the fast-growing market of North Plano, in an area known for its concentration of high-wage jobs, exemplary school district, and leading entertainment venues. As Knightvest completes the luxury renovations, the community will provide a high-quality, affordable housing alternative to new construction in the area.
“We’ve been greatly encouraged by investor interest in our new fund given our differentiated capabilities and strong track record of results,” said Knightvest Founder and CEO David Moore. “As the first investment of our new fund, this acquisition represents an important milestone, and it’s a perfect fit for our proven playbook given the value-add opportunity in one of the best markets in the nation.”
