RailField Acquires Multifamily Property In Houston, TX

RailField, a multifamily investment and asset management firm, today announced the acquisition of Dolce Midtown in the Midtown section of Houston, Texas. 

Centrally located at 180 W. Gray Street, this Class A multifamily property offers 201 high-end rental units. The two five-story buildings were constructed in 2020 and provide residents with multiple community amenities, including a clubhouse, fitness center, pool, fire pit, two outdoor kitchens with BBQ grills, game room, business center, and multi-level parking garage.

RailField plans to further enhance community amenities as part of its business plan. Units at the property have large walk-in closets, private patios/balconies, kitchen islands, designer lighting, built-in desks and shelving, built-in Bluetooth speakers in the living area, stainless appliances, solid surface countertops, tile backsplashes, and full-size washers and dryers.

The acquisition of this property was a joint venture between RailField and Artemis Real Estate Partners, a Washington, D.C.-based investment manager. The firms have worked together for nearly a decade, and this is the fifth transaction in which they have partnered, all of which have been in the state of Texas.

While RailField has been active in the other major markets of Texas since 2014, this is the firm’s first acquisition in Houston. “We are excited to enter the Houston market and see a real opportunity to increase our presence while providing high-quality housing options to a growing city,” said Jon Siegel, co-founder and Chief Investment Officer at RailField.

“We were drawn to both the high-quality asset and the location in Midtown,” said Siegel.
