ANNAPOLIS, MD – Aventon Companies, a prominent, vertically integrated multi-family developer with active projects throughout the mid-Atlantic and Southeast, announced it has begun construction on its latest apartment community in Annapolis, Maryland. Aventon Annapolis, located at 2555 Riva Road, will be a five-tale, 250-unit, amenity-rich apartment community situated on nearly four acres and conveniently located near major Fortune 500 employers, world-class schools and hospitals as well as restaurants and shopping destinations. Aventon Annapolis is being developed through a joint venture with Lake Forest, IL-based private equity firm, Westminster Capital.
The new community will offer spacious studio, one, and two-bedroom floorplans that feature high-end finishes and smart home technology. Designed for simple living, over 15,000 square feet of amenity space includes a resort-style, saltwater pool, game room with activities like pool, shuffleboard and retro arcade machines, fitness center featuring cardio and strength training equipment, as well as private day offices, a conference room and podcast studio. Animal lovers will delight in ample walking space, a dog park, and state-of-the-art pet spa.
“Annapolis is one of the most sought-after submarkets in the DC metro area thanks to its prime location on the Chesapeake Bay, supply constraints, and a booming local economy,” said Mark Coletta, Senior Managing Director for Aventon Companies. “Aventon Annapolis marks our first venture into Annapolis, and we are thrilled to become the premier luxury asset for apartment living in this already prestigious town.”
Aventon Annapolis is currently approved as the multi-family component of a larger mixed-use project which consists of 50,000 square feet of office space and 7,200 square feet of retail space. The project has been designed by SK+I Architecture, Parker Rodriguez, Inc., and Carlyn and Company. In just under three years, Aventon Companies has assembled an impressive $1.5 billion portfolio of ground-up developments bringing nearly 6,000 Aventon-branded apartment homes to Florida, Georgia, the Carolinas, and the Mid-Atlantic. Aventon Annapolis is slated to be completed in 2023.

FORT WORTH, TX – Civitas Capital Group, a Dallas-based global alternative investment manager offering niche opportunities in U.S. real estate, has bought Rocco Apartments, a 312-unit, garden-style apartment complex in burgeoning East Fort Worth.
“Value-add multifamily acquisition continues to be a winning strategy for Civitas,” says Rootvik Patel, Investments Director for Civitas, who led the transaction along with colleague Chandler Kyser. “Renovating multifamily properties such as Rocco is a win-win for tenants current and future. Civitas works to improve the communities in which we live and work, so the opportunity to update a property in a burgeoning market within our home in North Texas is exciting.”
Located off I-30 near off Eastchase Parkway just east of Fort Worth, Texas, the property, built in 1984, sits just 16 minutes from downtown Fort Worth – and only 26 minutes from downtown Dallas. East Fort Worth has been a direct beneficiary of the rapid economic expansion of the DFW metro area over the past few years. Notable development projects in the area include the GM Motors Arlington Assembly Plant, as well as the $4 billion master plotted Texas Live! Development.
“Rocco Apartments is another excellent example of our multifamily value-add acquisition strategy,” says Jonathan Kern, President and Chief Investment Officer at Civitas. “Many of the investments in multifamily we’ve made the past few years, and which we will continue to make, are indicative of our focus on attainable housing, which is in increasingly small supply. This is especially right in North Texas, one of the fastest-growing regions in the country.”
