NEWARK, N.J., Aug. 6, 2025 – PGIM Real Estate has provided a $24 million mezzanine loan on behalf of its structured debt strategy to Resia for the development of a multifamily community in North Fort Worth, Texas. Jesse Wright at JLL Capital Markets arranged the financing. Bank OZK provided a $58 million senior loan.
The eight-story community will have 464 units across two buildings located on an 8.5-acre land site in the broader North City master plan. The amenities, located at the center of the two residential buildings, will include a pool, a 24-hour fitness center, and a resident clubhouse. Apartment units will feature stainless steel appliances, granite countertops, in-unit washer and dryers, and private patios.
“We’re excited to provide financing to Resia for the development of this new multifamily community,” said Daniel Kattan, executive director at PGIM Real Estate, who led the financing. “North Fort Worth stands out as one of Texas’ most vibrant submarkets, driven by rapid population growth, ongoing infrastructure investment, and increasing demand for well-located, attainable housing. We believe this project is well positioned to meet the needs of a growing renter base in the region.”
“We are pleased to partner with PGIM Real Estate and Bank OZK on our latest development in North Fort Worth, a region continuing to experience robust growth,” said Leonardo Corrêa, chief financial officer at Resia. “This project marks our third community within the Dallas-Fort Worth metro area and our fifth in Texas, and we look forward to working with partners who share our vision for providing well-designed, attainable housing options.”
“Bank OZK is pleased to partner with PGIM Real Estate and a quality sponsor like Resia on this attractive development in North Fort Worth given the strong market and demographic dynamics,” said Victor Reynoso, managing director, Originations at Bank OZK.
