Spring Creek Townhomes
Stabilized Workforce Housing
Spring Creek is a 136-unit workforce housing community in Springfield, Illinois that was acquired following an extended period of operational decline, including elevated vacancy, deferred maintenance, and a significant number of out-of-service units.
Following acquisition, the property underwent a full-scale rehabilitation and operational repositioning strategy that restored occupancy to stabilized levels and ultimately led to a sale significantly ahead of the original projected investment timeline.
