Try Dealroom → is closing its Select Asset Fund after adding Arca II, a 255-unit multifamily development in Las Vegas, as the second investment in its short-duration, 2026-vintage strategy. The Chicago-based real estate investment manager said the fund had less than $10 million of remaining capacity for accredited-investor commitments.
The details: The strategy targets a 14% to 18% net internal rate of return and a 1.5x to 1.7x equity multiple over four years. Arca II joins Medina Station, a 353-unit ground-up development in Mesa, Arizona, that broke ground in February.
