Trammell Crow building luxe rentals north of Houston, Kingwood, Texas

Development built with Japan’s Daiwa House Group to be completed by end of 2023


Despite recession fears and rising interest rates, the Houston area continues to attract multifamily investors eager to build in the Bayou City.

High Street Residential, the luxury apartment developer subsidiary of the venerable Dallas-based real estate empire of Trammell Crow Company is teaming up with Japan’s Daiwa House Group, mostly known for prefabricated single-family homes, to add yet another high-end apartment development to Houston’s inventory.

The joint venture will build a new apartment and townhome project in the northern Houston suburb of Kingwood, according to a Houston Chronicle report.

The garden-style apartment community, slated to be completed by the end of 2023, will include 240 apartments and 49 townhomes for rent. Despite Daiwa’s involvement, there will be no “wholesale pre-fabrication in the project,” Trammell Crow spokesperson Elise Maguire told The Real Deal.

The Residences at Kingwood, located at 6519 Kings River Commercial Drive about 30 miles northeast of Houston will be built within a so-called “liveable forest” master-planned community. Apartments and townhomes will range in size from one to three bedrooms. Some units will also offer private outdoor space and one- or two-car garages.

Residents will also have access to a resident lounge with an art gallery, a conferencing and remote-work suite, an outdoor putting green, a pickleball court, and the latest innovation in the amenity wars — an on-site pet grooming center.

High Street has tapped W Partnership as the architect for the project and Robinson & Company will handle landscape design. Cadence McShane is the development’s general contractor.

The Residences at Kingwood will be in good company in the Houston area which topped the nation in luxury apartment development over the past 10 years, according to Yardi Matrix, with 72,000 units built, beating out even high-end markets like New York City.


Right now, the Houston metro is the number three U.S. market when it comes to projected overall apartment demand. The top two markets are Austin and Dallas-Fort Worth, respectively.

Image
This is a hot topic and we've been trying to convey it to our clients. Properties are full in many areas of Houston, especially in the suburbs where rental rates seem to be a little lower than downtown. And yes, rents have skyrocketed. The rental rates are not expected to go down and that's why you need an apartment locator, we do the research for you. Some of our previous clients are now experiencing lease renewal increases of $200+ monthly.

Why Rental Prices Are Going Up

Image
  Time Magazine Rental prices going up  BY ABBY VESOULIS - Author G arrett deGraffenreid, a 23-year-old New York University graduate student, knew the rent on his one-bedroom Manhattan apartment would jump when he saw a Trader Joe’s grocery store pop up down the block. “The writing was on the wall,” he says. What he didn’t anticipate was just how much his rent would rise. When deGraffenreid and his partner signed a lease last year, they paid about $1,600 per month. On Feb. 11, they received a notice informing them that a new lease beginning next month would cost $2,750 per month: a 69% surge. “It felt defeating,” says deGraffenreid. He responded to the notice with a plea for a more reasonable rent increase, but was met with a “brick wall” response. The gist of their message was: "There’s nothing you can do so don’t waste your time trying. Good luck!" He isn’t alone. Similarly jarring double-digit rent spikes are happening all over the country. In Henderson, Nevada, rents rose
