PPR Capital Management (PPR), a Pennsylvania-based private equity real estate investment firm, has acquired Highline at Knoxville, a newly constructed build-to-rent (BTR) community in Knoxville, Tennesee.

The $87 million acquisition encompasses both Phase I, consisting of 110 detached homes currently in lease-up, and Phase II, featuring 151 to-be-developed townhomes and detached homes. PPR partnered with Center Creek Capital Group on the acquisition.
