Dear Board members of the Perryton CDC and City Council,
My name is Brett Johnson and I am writing on behalf of the Overland Property Group to express my firm’s interest in developing a multi-family apartment community in Perryton. We have been in business since 2002 and have developed over 2,000 apartment units in 5 states, including Texas.
Our interest in Perryton is a result of numerous studies and analysis of the Panhandle markets over the past 4 years. Presently, we have 64 units that are now leased and operational in Dumas and another 48 set to begin construction in Borger. It is our desire to develop a similar community in Perryton and have had recent discussions with both David Landis and Sheryl Hardy regarding potential sites and the involvement of the CDC.
Part of the success of our portfolio is our focus on both “affordable housing” as well as standard “market-rate” units. We believe that this mix provides communities with much needed workforce housing while also providing units to young families, teachers and young professionals with an affordable, safe place to call home.
In the following pages you will find information on my firm as well as a brief explanation of the process we will need to follow in order to bring this development to Perryton. I encourage you to take a few minutes to review the information within and feel free to email or call me with any questions.
We are currently on the agenda for the meeting on November 18th and look forward to meeting you all. Best regards,
Brett Johnson
