NexMetro Communities, the nation’s leading developer of cottage-style build-to-rent communities, has launched a participating preferred equity vehicle offering accredited investors access to a diversified portfolio of stabilized Avilla Homes projects.

The Fund represents a significant milestone for NexMetro, opening access to a portfolio of income-producing Avilla purpose-built BTR neighborhoods that have been developed, leased, and operated to stabilization under the company’s proven platform, said Ryan Krafczik, vice president of equity investments at NexMetro.

“The NexMetro Strategic Asset Fund gives investors a disciplined way to access stabilized, income-producing Avilla communities located in high-growth submarkets at what the company believes is a compelling point in the multifamily market cycle,” Krafczik said. “By targeting assets that are already performing — rather than development-stage projects — the Fund is designed to deliver near-term income with the long-term appreciation characteristics that have defined the build-to-rent sector’s strong fundamentals.”

The NexMetro Strategic Asset Fund targets a two–year investment horizon, an 8% annualized participating preferred return paid quarterly, and a projected 17% net IRR, structured to deliver current income alongside meaningful value appreciation as Sun Belt multifamily markets move through recovery.

“After an extended period of elevated new supply, the market is entering a phase where stabilized, income-producing assets like Avilla communities are exceptionally well-positioned,” Krafczik said. “We believe this is a compelling moment to deploy capital into a stabilized BTR portfolio as the market begins to absorb the historic supply.”

The Strategic Asset Fund is part of a broader NexMetro investment platform spanning the build-to-rent life cycle — from ground-up development strategies to private credit. NexMetro’s investment offerings are available to advisors through widely used custodians and alternative investment platforms, including Fidelity, Schwab, and iCapital Marketplace.
