The property was subject to a $59.2 million loan originated by First United Bank & Trust back in 2018 and was set to mature in 2023, according to CommercialEdge data.

Spread on 7.5 acres, the four-building shopping center initially came online in 1999 and underwent renovations in 2022.

The property’s tenant roster includes a mix of national and regional retailers such as Starbucks, Land Design, United Real Estate, Natuzzi Editions, Nest Craft Cafe and Ovation Salon Suites. Muse Shops at Midtown has a weighted average remaining lease term of 8.7 years and more than 70,000 square feet of new leases signed in the last 12 months. At the time of the sale, the property was 58 percent leased.

Located at 5203-5233 Alpha Road, Muse Shops at Midtown is within the Platinum Corridor South submarket. Situated at the intersection of the Dallas North Tollway and Interstate 635, the property is in an area where the daily traffic count reaches more than 540,000 vehicles per day, according to JLL.
