The Last Word: OHG’s Lauren Seaver on City of Dallas Acquiring Briscoe Apartments for $82M for Mixed-Income Housing

The city of Dallas announced last week that it has spent $82 million through the Dallas Housing Finance Corporation to acquire The Briscoe, a 322-unit class-A multifamily property at 12639 Coit Road in North Dallas. The Briscoe was previously charging tenants full market-rate rents. Now it will reserve 161 units for residents earning at or below 80% of the area median income. Current residents who qualify will see their rents reduced at their next lease renewal, saving an average of $222 a month, or $2,659 a year.
