OXFORD, MS – Landmark Properties, a fully-integrated real estate firm specializing in development, construction, investment management, and operation of high-quality residential communities, has acquired a 27-acre site in Oxford, Mississippi, where it plans to build The Station at Oxford, an 817-bed student housing development. The cottage-style community located on Oxford Way off South Lamar Boulevard will feature a mix of cottages and townhomes.
The project will be the third development in partnership with Liberty Mutual Investments (LMI), the investment firm for Liberty Mutual Group. In September, Landmark and LMI announced the development of purpose-built student housing at Pennsylvania State University and The University of Connecticut.

Construction will begin immediately and is expected to be completed in time for the 2027-2028 academic year.
“The Station at Oxford will be a best-in-class cottage-style option for the Ole Miss community, one of the only new student housing properties under construction since 2018,” said Jason Doornbos, Chief Development Officer at Landmark Properties. “The development’s unique product offering, proximity to campus, and modern design and amenities meets the evolving lifestyle preferences of today’s students and is sure to capture a meaningful share of the off-campus housing demand.”
The Station at Oxford, located just South of the University of Mississippi campus, contains 269 units in a mix of two- to four-bedroom units, each delivered fully furnished and wired for high-speed internet and cable. Residents will enjoy in-unit laundry, stainless steel appliances, quartz countertops, large closets, en-suite bathrooms, and hardwood-style laminate flooring.
A community clubhouse will provide multiple opportunities for socializing and relaxation, including a resort-style swimming pool with cabanas and hammocks, a fitness center, sports simulator, Jumbotron, cornhole, firepits and grilling areas, and a pickleball court.

“Supporting S.A.F.E. Pet Rescue and celebrating pet adoptions at Terrassa reflects our commitment to creating a welcoming community where both people and pets feel at home,” added Atkins.

HOUSTON, TX – Knightvest Capital, a vertically integrated multifamily investment firm, announced the acquisition of Gables Post Oak in Houston, TX. The successful close represents the 17th investment in Knightvest’s Fund II.
The 316-unit mid-rise community is located in the desirable Post Oak submarket of Houston, situated between the prestigious River Oaks neighborhood and the Uptown Business district. Knightvest will implement a comprehensive renovation program with planned improvements to the leasing center, fitness center, and resident lounges. Knightvest will also fully renovate the majority of the unit interiors. As part of the renovation efforts, Knightvest has renamed the community to Hollings Post Oak.
“Hollings Post Oak is a rare find and a high-quality community in one of Houston’s most sought-after submarkets, acquired at a meaningful discount to replacement cost,” said David Moore, Knightvest founder and CEO. “This is exactly the type of opportunity Fund II was designed to pursue: a well-located asset with a clear path to value creation. Our team has the expertise to fully transform this community and deliver a living experience that is a compelling, affordable alternative to newer construction in the area.”
Houston has been a core region for Knightvest as part of the company’s deep-market strategy, focusing on developing deep expertise and scale in fewer, more concentrated markets. As the fourth-largest MSA in the United States, Houston has consistently ranked among the top five markets in the country for employment growth, with two of the nation’s ten highest-growth counties located within the MSA. The market has proven resilient in the face of elevated supply following a post-pandemic development surge, and Knightvest remains confident in its long-term fundamentals.

The Phoenix metro area remains a priority market for The NRP Group, underscoring the firm s strategic commitment to one of the fastest-growing counties in the U.S. In December, the firm broke ground on Desert Sky, a 288-unit affordable housing community in West Phoenix. This expansion reflects strong confidence in the region s long-term rental housing market, driven by robust job growth and sustained year-over-year in-migration patterns. The NRP Group has developed more than 67,000 apartment homes in 17 states since 1994 and currently manages over 30,000 residential units across the U.S.

BOULDER, CO – Brickstone Partners, a full-service real estate investment and development firm based in Franklin, Tenn., announced that CEO Daniel Otis has acquired complete ownership and control of The Lodge at Boulder, a luxury 371 bed student housing community located at 2900 E. Aurora Avenue in Boulder, Colo and serving the University of Colorado Boulder. Cornerstone, Otis’ family office, played an instrumental role in acquiring the membership interest previously held by Deutsche Finance America (DFA).
“The Lodge has been a mainstay of our student housing platform in Boulder for many years, and we remain committed to providing exceptional living experiences for the University of Colorado students,” Otis said. “Completing this transaction allows us to continue investing in both the asset and the entire community with a long-term perspective.”
The acquisition of the 220-unit community represents a strategic consolidation of ownership and further aligns lasting control of the asset with Brickstone’s operations. The transaction follows the successful 2022 refinancing of a broader Boulder student housing portfolio—including The Lodge at Boulder—with financing co-originated by Blackstone Real Estate and Clarion Partners in a portfolio recapitalization valued at more than $180 million.
Since acquiring the property in 2015, Brickstone Partners and Otis have overseen significant value creation at the community. The investment was recapitalized in 2019 through a joint venture between Brickstone and DFA and later included in the 2022 portfolio refinancing. At the time of the recapitalization these assets had generated internal rates of return in excess of 30 percent.
The Lodge at Boulder has undergone extensive renovations, including upgraded unit interiors, a redesigned clubhouse, enhanced common areas and mechanical system improvements. The community continues to be recognized as one of the leading student housing options in the market, driven by its proximity to the University of Colorado Boulder campus and its high-quality amenity offerings.
