Commercial real estate distress across Texas cooled in April, but the chill was short-lived.
The total value of loans flagged for foreclosure this month surged past $1 billion in the Texas Triangle — the first time it’s done so since The Real Deal started tracking monthly foreclosures in May 2025.
The analysis uses data from Roddy’s Foreclosure Listing Service to track foreclosures across seven counties that include the state’s five largest metros: Houston, San Antonio, Dallas, Fort Worth and Austin.
Across the state, 43 commercial properties are scheduled to be auctioned on Tuesday, the vast majority of which are apartment complexes.
Here are the biggest loans up for auction. It’s possible that some of these borrowers and lenders will reach agreements to avoid auction.
Houston
The office building at 3000 Post Oak Boulevard is finally hitting the auction block after years of uncertainty about the building’s future in the wake of the exit of its anchor tenant. Engineering and construction firm Bechtel, which occupied 99 percent of the building, announced plans to leave in 2022. The $80 million commercial mortgage-backed securities loan tied to the property was issued in 2020 and matured in March 2025. The property is owned by AIP Asset Management and Five Mile Partners.
Austin
New York-based Nord Group, which once described itself as “inexperienced” in a bankruptcy filing, could finally lose the keys to the Park at Crestview Apartments after seeking bankruptcy protection for the property starting in November 2024. Lumen Real Capital provided the $42 million mortgage for the 248-unit property, at 8200 Research Boulevard, in 2023. The loan works out to about $169,000 per unit.
San Antonio
Lubbock-based Madera Residential is facing foreclosure on the Summit at Salado Creek Apartments, at 12727 Vista Del Norte, after the property’s last owner, Platte Canyon Capital, lost the property to foreclosure. Madera assumed the $45 million loan from Benefit Street Partners when it bought the apartment building. The loan works out to about $128,000 per unit for the 352-unit property.
Dallas & Fort Worth
This month’s largest new distressed loan is tied to properties throughout the Metroplex in Dallas and Tarrant counties. Shakti C’Ganti’s Ashland Greene is facing foreclosure on a four-property portfolio totaling 1,530 units. The firm allegedly defaulted on a $177 million loan from Blackstone backed by the portfolio.
