MG Properties Group Adds to Portland Portfolio With $54 Million Acquisition of 210-Unit Maddox Apartments Along The Columbia River

PORTLAND, OR – MG Properties Group, a private San Diego-based real estate investor and operator, is further expanding its Portland presence, announcing the acquisition of Maddox Apartments. The two newly combined and rebranded communities, formerly known as North Harbour Vista and Marine View, offer on-site retail and a coveted location along the Columbia River.
Located in the Bridgeton neighborhood of North Portland, the 210-unit community offers an ideal location within walking distance to the Expo Center Light Rail Station, connecting residents to the larger Portland metro and offering simple access to Vancouver. North Portland offers a seamless commute to the downtown core, while still having the feel of a suburban location.
“We are thrilled to add Maddox to our portfolio of communities,” said Mark Gleiberman, MG Properties Group’s Founder & CEO. “Maddox allows us to further scale our regional portfolio while investing in a submarket that we believe has substantial growth potential.”
The seller, Prima Donna Development, was represented by Mark Palmer, Michael McCleary, and Ryan Thompson at Palmer Capital Inc. The acquisition of Maddox Apartments was financed with a loan from an affiliate of Apollo Global Management arranged by Bryan Frazier, Andrew Schoene, and Blake Hockenbury at Walker & Dunlop.
Maddox is the 20th community bought in the past year by MG Properties Group, totaling over $1.6 billion in combined value. MG Properties is continuing to target further acquisitions in Washington, Oregon, California, Arizona, Nevada, Utah, Colorado, and Texas.

The Preiss Company Completes Acquisition of 847-Bed The Collective at Lubbock Student Housing Community Serving Texas Tech

LUBBOCK, TX – Officials at The Preiss Company (TPCO), one of the nation s largest, privately-held, student housing owner-operators, and a private equity real estate fund, announced the acquisition of The Collective at Lubbock, an 847-bed student housing complex. TPCO plans to start a multi-million capital improvement project scheduled to start Spring of 2022 and completed in phases over the next three years to minimally impact residents. Acquisition financing was arranged by Ben Roelke and Ian Walker at Newmark. The 70% LTC senior loan featured a 5-year, interest-only term and a sub-2% all-in rate.
While The Collective at Lubbock marks our first asset in the Texas Tech market, it also is our 14th student housing complex in the Lone Star State, said John Preiss, chief investment officer, TPCO. This level of concentration allows for shared economies of scale and best practices, both of which will have an immediate, positive impact on this project. Already in prime physical condition, our additional plotted refurbishment will bring The Collective at Lubbock to ‘like-new status. We look forward to serving the Texas Tech University community.
Formerly known as the Cottages at Lubbock, the 241-unit student housing complex is situated at 2001 9th Street, a small walk from Texas Tech University and a bevy of local shops, restaurants and grocery stores. Amenities range from fire pit and grilling/picnic stations to resort-style pool and two fitness centers. Residents also can delight in a game room, theatre room, computer lounge and study space in the resident clubhouse, as well as a 24/7 Amazon Hub package locker system and TTU shuttle service. Pet-friendly apartments come in 2-, 3-, 4- and 5-bedroom configurations, each offering private bedrooms and baths, in-unit washer/dryer, large walk-in closets and modern finishes. Units contain hard wood flooring in common areas and plush carpeting in the bedrooms. Additional touches include patios or porches and large kitchens featuring stainless steel appliances and granite countertops. Monthly rental fees also include cable, WIFI, trash and sewer services. Both furnished and unfurnished models are available.
The improvement plot will focus largely on common areas with some unit upgrades. The clubhouse and pool both will be refurbished, and the internet system will receive major upgrades. Additionally, exterior paint will be refreshed, and units will receive new furniture and blinds.
