A joint venture is developing a seniors housing community in Texas thanks to a preferred equity investment completed by ORIX Corporation USA’s Municipal and Infrastructure Finance business, led by Rob Wetzler. The actual investment amount was not disclosed, but it will help fund the construction and start-up costs of a 103-unit seniors housing community in Aledo (Fort Worth area).  

Civitas Senior Living, a developer, owner and operator of over 40 communities across the southern United States, and Journey Capital, a Dallas-based asset manager focused on seniors housing development and acquisitions, are responsible for the project. This will be Journey’s seventh development in the sector, and third with Civitas.
