DALLAS, TX – HFF announced it has arranged construction financing along with joint venture equity for the development of 33° North, a 139-unit, 427-bed student housing project at the University of North Texas (top left photo) in Denton.  

HFF worked exclusively on behalf of the borrower, a joint venture between Fountain Residential Partners, LLC and Crosswind Development, LLC, to secure the construction loan through American Bank of Texas.  In addition, HFF assisted in securing the joint venture equity on behalf of the borrower through a private investor.

33° North is located at 919 Eagle Drive on the southeast corner of the University of North Texas campus in Denton.  Due for completion in the fall of 2013, the community will be the first of two student housing assets currently in development within walking distance of campus and will consist of one-, two-, three- and four-bedroom units. 

Amenities will include fully furnished units featuring granite countertops and 50-inch flat screen televisions in addition to a pool area and clubhouse. 

The HFF team representing the borrower was led by associate director Adam Herrin (middle left photo).
