Houston, TX – June 20, 2025 — Rockfish Capital, a transatlantic real estate investment firm focused on large-scale multifamily acquisitions, has successfully closed on The Forest Apartments, a 192-unit apartment community located in a strong Houston workforce submarket.
The transaction marks Rockfish Capital’s first U.S. acquisition and a strategic milestone in the firm’s expansion into the American real estate market.
“This acquisition is the culmination of disciplined underwriting, strong broker relationships, and the trust of our capital partners,” said Sven Kueenle, Founder and CEO of Rockfish Capital. “It validates our belief that now is the right time to acquire value-add assets in resilient growth markets like Houston.”
The Forest Apartments was acquired off-market and offers significant operational upside through improved management and a targeted renovation plan. The business strategy includes a light value-add capex scope of approximately $1.1 million and aims to deliver a projected 15% IRR over a 5-year hold.
The acquisition was financed through a combination of senior debt and equity raised under Regulation D 506(c) for accredited U.S. investors and Regulation S for non-U.S. investors, showcasing Rockfish Capital’s ability to attract cross-border capital while maintaining strict compliance across jurisdictions.
“We’re proud of our team’s performance and thankful to our Limited Partners for their confidence,” added Kueenle. “This is just the beginning.”
