Investcorp has been on a buying tear, and it just added to its holdings, dropping $311M to purchase six multifamily properties totaling 2,876 units in three U.S. metros: Houston, Salt Lake City and Tampa, Florida.
“Multifamily has always been a strong area of focus for Investcorp, and this portfolio is fully aligned with our strategy of investing in core plus U.S. real estate,” Investcorp Principal in Real Estate Investment Michael Moriarty said in a statement.

“These investments underscore our commitment to increasing Investcorp’s footprint in the U.S. market, a key driver of the firm’s overall growth strategy and a market on which we will be incredibly focused in 2019,” Investcorp co-CEO Rishi Kapoor said in a statement.
