Happy 15th Birthday!
Oh kids — they grow up so fast!
15 years ago the owner sat at a computer, typing domain names into a registration site to see what might be available so he could registered a company name to match. After 845 different names tried, ‘fatproperty.com’ showed up as available. And the rest is history.
From that first 8 unit property, Fat Property has purchased over 2,000 units and has become one of the most active buyers of multifamily in Houston
Here’s to another exciting 15 years!
Please take a moment to thank a veteran this memorial day
Fat Property is proud to support our veterans and wishes all current and former members of the military an outstanding memorial day.
Over $500,000,000 in deals done!
With the conclusion of our most recent refinance, Fat Property has completed over $500,000,000 in deals. This is a total of all purchases, sales, and refinances.
As always, our thanks (and credit) goes first and foremost to our hard working team members. But we can’t leave out the brokers who contacted us with their deals, the sellers who trusted us to close, and the lenders who have confidence in our ability to pay back our debts.
In regards to those relationships, there are a few points we’re very proud of:
- For Brokers: We’ve never put a property under contract that we’ve failed to close
- For Sellers: We’ve never put a property under contract and re-traded or needed an extension
- For Banks: We’ve never been late on any payment. Ever. And kept global leverage under 60%
We’re very proud of this milestone and can’t wait to update again when we hit $1,000,000,000. That way we’ll be in the 3 comma club like this guy
Welcome to the family, little guy
So we’re at our new Roseland property, planning for what we’re going to do to the place. We see that across the street, on the corner of Roseland and Woodrow, there is a nice old home for sale (with two garage apartments in the back). We called the agent and said “We’ll take it!”. A week later, it was ours.
We plan to start upgrading the place ASAP — new paint, windows, interior, flooring, and more. And renovating the garage apartments as well. So stop by and say “hi”. Or if you want to snag the home or apartments as a rental, reach out to us. We’ll be happy to work something out ahead of time. Or if you’re an STR operator and want to lease the whole thing for your STR business, hit us up. [email protected].
Two new Montrose properties – Welcome to the family!
On February 1 we welcome two new properties to the Fat Property family: 4402 / 4410 Roseland and 1930 North Blvd.
4402 Roseland is a full block in Montrose (77006) with Oakley St. to the north, Woodrow St. to the south, and Kyle St. to the west. As well as Montrose Blvd just one block over. It consists of 4x 1 bedroom units and 18x 2 bedroom units. It was built back in 1955 and the units and exterior maintain most of that same older charm. Units start under $1000 a month — continuing our tradition of working to offer some of the lowest priced options in the best areas of the city.
1930 North Blvd is on one of the nicest streets in Houston, in the heart of the Rice University submarket (77098). It’s set back with a huge wide esplanade in front, mature oak trees all around, and some of the nicest walking ares the city has to offer. Plus off street parking and a huge courtyard that looks like it’s from a fairy tail. The property is nearly 80 years old and offers the rare opportunity to live affordably in one of the best spots in the city. The building has a few 1 bedrooms starting at under $1000 a month and huge 2 bedrooms starting at about $1,700 a month. If you’d like to check out either of these properties for lease, give our team a call at 832-640-4444. Open M-F, 9-5:30. Or email us at [email protected]

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
Fat Property was busy busy busy in 2021, having bought over 400 units. Our largest year-over-year increase to date. The full 2021 recap will come soon. We wanted to use this post to update everyone with our holiday hours.
Our offices will be closed December 24th in observance of Christmas. Because New Years Day falls on a Saturday, all offices will be closed Saturday. However, all locations will be open business-as-usual Friday, December 31st 2021, and Monday, January 3rd, 2022
Thanks to all our residents, employees, contractors, partners, lenders, vendors, family and friends that made this year possible. And here’s to an even better 2022!
Please remember Pearl Harbor day
Personal note from the owner:
My grandparents both lived in Pearl Harbor the day it was attacked. My grandfather was on the USS Arizona. I’m thankful they survived but am sad they are not still with us to see Fat Property and their grandkids 🙁
Thanks to all of those who serve! I’m thinking of you grandma and grandpa!
Merry Christmas from Dakota Lofts
Just saw this picture from our manager at Dakota Lofts. They’ve got the lobby all setup, ready for Santa to visit!
Finding strength to call and ask her
