Sixth Street and Madera Residential Partner to Recapitalize Houston Multifamily Portfolio
Houston, Texas Aug. 22, 2025 – Sixth Street Real Estate and Madera Residential today announced the recapitalization of a six-property, 1,967-unit, Class-A multifamily portfolio located in Houston, Texas.
The portfolio encompasses six multifamily communities strategically positioned across Houston, including the Medical Center, River Oaks, CityCentre, Montrose, and the Museum District. The portfolio includes Domain at CityCentre, The Lofts at CityCentre, La Maison River Oaks, Chelsea Museum District, Vantage Med Center and The Montrose at Buffalo Bayou.
“Houston multifamily is well-positioned with a favourable supply-demand backdrop which should drive continued rent growth, particularly for high-quality assets within the city’s urban core. We are excited to partner with the Madera Residential team to recapitalize this Houston-based multifamily portfolio,” said Adam Rapport at Sixth Street. “We remain focused on acquiring high-quality assets in supply-constrained markets at a discount to underlying replacement cost and positioning them for long-term growth.”
The partnership between Madera Residential and Sixth Street marks a strategic shift for Madera, expanding beyond its traditional network of high-net-worth investors to also include institutional joint venture partners.
“Houston’s ongoing economic diversification, strong population growth and job expansion make it an appealing market for institutional investment,” said James Kane at Madera Residential. “The combination of our local expertise with Sixth Street’s institutional backing creates a compelling partnership poised to capitalize on the region’s strong fundamentals and we look forward to continued collaboration.”
The JLL Capital Markets team, led by Matt Kafka, Jeremy Sain, and Cameron Cureton, served as Sixth Street’s advisor on the transaction and arranged the financing for the recapitalization.
