All three projects exemplify a commitment to delivering high-quality housing units within key regions with population and job growth.
Since 2013, Trez Capital has provided investors with real estate equity investment opportunities and the program's most recent achievement includes closing the Waller Adams project in Houston and the extension of the Canyons South project, called the Canyons Far South project, in Denver which were offered through Trez Capital Opportunity Funds (TOFs).
Trez Capital is proud to announce the successful closing of Waller Adams, a strategic lot development project in Houston, Texas.
