Firm executes smart deal strategy; successfully sells prime Fort Worth property, elevating investor returns


Dallas, Texas (March 8, 2024) MLG Capital today announced that it has sold Copperfield Apartments, a 323-unit multifamily property located at 6051 S Hulen St. in Fort Worth, Texas. The sale closed on March 7 to an undisclosed buyer. The disposition of the property is part of MLG’s deal strategy to buy and sell real estate investments with a core focus on growing operating income and/or reducing operating expenses to maximize return to investors.


MLG Capital purchased the Class B multifamily property in 2019 as part of MLG’s series of MLG Private Funds. At acquisition, Copperfield Apartments, which has a prime location in Southwest Fort Worth, offered significant value-add opportunity through interior and exterior renovations. MLG Capital renovated over 100 apartment units and made various common area improvements in its 5-year hold, including renovating the clubhouse, updating the pool area and adding an outdoor firepit.


“We are excited to go full cycle on this investment. Over the past 5 years, we’ve executed our asset strategy which included a light value add of select interior units. We were able to improve operations, enhance the asset and amenity set, and offer quality apartments that our residents can be proud to call home,” said Ryan Mueller, senior vice president at MLG Capital.


The series of MLG Private Funds target robust and tax-efficient cash on cash distributions and appreciation over time. MLG’s fund strategy provides investors the opportunity to participate in a diversified portfolio of private real estate assets, rather than individual deals. The firm targets property acquisitions with a focus on geographic diversification across the United States. MLG Private Fund VI, is currently open for investment and has a targeted equity size of $400M and is set to close to new investors later in 2024.

    What is the J-Curve?

    The term “J-curve” is a concept often used to describe the typical investment performance trajectory of private equity and real estate funds over time. It represents the pattern of cash flows and returns that investors can usually expect during the lifecycle of these types of funds. The J-curve’s name is derived from the shape of the curve, which resembles the letter “J” when plotted on a graph, with time on the horizontal axis and returns on the vertical axis. When applied to real estate funds, the typical J-curve illustrates an initial dip in performance, a gradual increase, and eventual positive returns (as demonstrated on the graph below). Understanding the J-curve is important for investors, fund managers, and related parties as it provides insights into the expected timing of returns and the associated risks of investing in private real estate. The Stages of the J-Curve Stage 1: Investment Period (Capital Deployed into Markets) Stage 2: Value Creation (Operational, Financial, and Managerial Improvements) Stage 3: Harvest Period (Exit Investments to Realize Gains) Stage 1: Investment Period This initial downturn is primarily due to the upfront costs associated with establishing the fund and acquiring real estate, such as organizational costs, administrative costs, acquisition...
