December 5, 2025
Following a strong year of acquisitions, the company plans to reinvest about $58 million in interior and exterior upgrades and new amenities across the 15 Dream communities.
Post-acquisition, Morgan Properties intends to allocate the $58 million reinvestment to improve interiors, exteriors, and amenities across the newly acquired communities, which range from vintage properties built between 1968 and 2002.
The year 2025 marks Morgan Properties’ milestone of surpassing 110,000 total units after completing roughly $1.5 billion in acquisitions and expanding to over 14,000 units.
Morgan Properties completed a landmark $354 million acquisition of Dream Residential Real Estate Investment Trust, taking the Canadian REIT private and adding 15 multifamily communities with 3,300 units to its U.S. portfolio.
Across recent acquisitions, Morgan Properties plans more than $200 million in capital improvements and has added over 80 properties to the portfolio this year, with 250 site-level hires tied to the expansion.
The company intends to invest over $200 million in capital improvements to enhance properties and create long-term value for residents and investors.
Morgan Properties emphasizes a contrarian, institutionally sized portfolios strategy, aiming to capitalize on high-entry-barrier opportunities as competitors face capital constraints and investors flock to quality.
In 2025, Morgan Properties has aggressively expanded with about $1.5 billion in acquisitions totaling more than 14,000 units, pushing the portfolio beyond 110,000 units in its 40th anniversary year.
Leadership expects to capitalize on opportunities as institutional investors move toward higher-end assets while competitors face tighter capital conditions.
The deal was led by Morgan Properties’ Co-Presidents, Jonathan and Jason Morgan, underscoring the company’s ability to execute complex public-to-private transactions and to leverage a strong balance sheet.
The expansion adds footprint in Texas, Ohio, Kentucky, and Oklahoma, highlighting Morgan Properties’ capacity to pursue large-scale, complex acquisitions across multiple markets.
