Located at 5211 E. 7th St.,

 the property is positioned just three miles east of downtown Austin. 


JLL worked on behalf of the borrower, Central Southwest Texas Development, LLC DBA CSW Development, and the equity partner, Blueprint Local, to secure the loan.

 

The JLL Capital Markets Debt Advisory team representing the borrower was led by Senior Managing Director Doug Opalka, Senior Director CW Sheehan and Associates Scott Dickey and Samantha Jay.

 

“Our team has worked diligently to secure permits necessary to start construction, so we are excited to be able to break ground at a time where high-quality construction trades are readily available due to the challenging capital market environment,” said Kevin Hunter, CFO and COO of CSW Development.

“With a considerable amount of growth happening in East Austin, from Tesla’s headquarters, numerous new local food and entrainment venues, major roadway improvements and the Austin airport expansion, we see the housing demand only increasing in this area as development activity progresses.”

Community amenities will include a swimming pool and cabanas, a club room and deck arena, a two-story fitness center, a leasing center, a coworking space, a fifth-floor sky lounge overlooking the Austin Downtown skyline, an outdoor courtyard and a dog park area.
