Brixton Capital Buys Houston Asset

Regatta Bay

Brixton Capital has acquired Regatta Bay, a 240-unit multifamily property in Seabrook, Texas. The seller was a partnership between Lloyd Jones and Polaris Realty, represented by Matt Saunders of Newmark. The buyer benefited from a $35.8 million acquisition loan originated by Western Alliance Bank, Yardi Matrix data shows. The property will be managed by United Apartment Group, a firm bought by Brixton Capital in 2020.

Completed in 2003, Regatta Bay comprises 15 two- and three-story buildings. Located at 2555 Repsdorph Road, southeast of Houston, the property is in an area close to multiple job clusters, including several health-care facilities, the Port of Houston and NASA’s Johnson Space Center.
