HOUSTON — Hunt Mortgage Group has provided three Fannie Mae loans totaling $61.5 million for the refinancing of three apartment communities in the metro Houston area. All three non-recourse bridge and permanent loans were for the same borrower, Charlie Yalamanchili and Ilan Investments LLC, a Houston-based commercial real estate and multifamily investor. The financing included a two-year, floating-rate loan for Ravello at Tuscan Lakes, a 244-unit community located at 1750 E. League City Parkway in League City; a 10-year loan with four years of interest-only payments and a 30-year amortization schedule for Breton Mill, a 392-unit property located at 13555 Breton Ridge St. in Houston’s Champions/Willowbrook submarket; and a 10-year loan with five years of interest-only payments and a 30-year amortization schedule for Champion Oaks, a 252-unit community also situated in the Champions/Willowbrook submarket.

Colin Cross led Hunt Mortgage’s origination team in Dallas for the refinancings.

Tarrant County Multifamily Market Is Undersupplied

As a lender in construction and permanent financing of new multifamily properties, Mason Joseph Co. is constantly assessing and reassessing future supply and demand estimates for rental properties. Tarrant County has several high-profile apartment properties under construction, causing some in the lending industry to ask if the market is on the verge of being oversupplied. Our answer to that question is a firm “no.” Since 2010, a year in which Tarrant County boasted a ratio of 1.07 housing units per household, the market has suffered diminished production of all housing types. As of 2017, ESRI estimates that the units-to-household ratio is closer to 1.09. While that difference appears small, it means about 14,000 fewer housing units were built in Tarrant County from 2010 to 2017 than would be expected. A review of housing permits issued for the following two periods supports that data. From 2001 to 2010, the volume of housing units permitted exceeded the number of new households by an average of 821 units per year. From 2011 to 2017, the equation flipped and Tarrant County added 354 more households than housing units annually, implying the county has now been undersupplied by about 1,200 units per year for the …
