San Antonio Seniors to Have New Affordable Housing Option 

August 2026 – Indianapolis, IN – Brickstone Flats is a new construction apartment community located on the southwest side of San Antonio, Texas. With 290 apartment homes, this senior community will serve residents aged 55 and older, with most rents set at 60% of the Area Median Income (AMI), and a smaller number set at 30%. This expanded access to housing that fits seniors’ fixed income helps stabilize households, reduce housing insecurity, and supports greater economic mobility. 

Brickstone will offer a mix of one- and two-bedroom floor plans spread across four interior-corridor buildings. Planned amenities include a clubhouse, fitness center, computer stations, activity space, library, outdoor entertainment area, and a dog park.  

“Brickstone Flats will bring much-needed affordable housing options to seniors in an area where supply is limited,” said Carly Zink, Development Director. “This community is designed to help residents remain in the neighborhoods they know and value, while ensuring their housing remains attainable as they age.” 

The ability to age-in-place is critical to the physical and mental health of seniors. In 2021, the AARP found that when given the choice, 77% of adults over 50 preferred the option to age in place. Being able to stay in the community where they have put down roots allows people to remain active and independent as they are familiar with their surroundings, have a better understanding of area services, and have maintained their social connections. 

These community benefits are made possible through a strong public-private financial partnership. It is financed with tax-exempt bonds from Opportunity Home San Antonio and 4% housing tax credits from the Texas Department of Housing and Community Affairs (TDHCA). In addition, the construction loan, permanent loan and tax credit equity are all provided by PNC Bank.

Honoring the Life and Legacy of Brett Scrogham

It is with profound sadness that we share the passing of Brett Scrogham.

Just two weeks before his passing, Brett joined Kittle Property Group as a Development Analyst. While his time with us was brief, his impact was immediate. From the moment he arrived, Brett brought energy, enthusiasm, and a genuine passion for the work we do. We were excited to welcome him to our team and looked forward to watching him grow both personally and professionally.

Brett was a recent graduate of Indiana University’s Kelley School of Business, where he distinguished himself through his commitment to learning, leadership, and service. He was actively involved in the Real Estate Club, earned multiple certifications, and volunteered as a competitive speech and debate coaching assistant. Those who knew Brett consistently describe him as kind, hardworking, humble, and full of optimism.

What stands out most when reflecting on Brett’s life is the way he made people feel. He had a natural ability to connect with others, a positive attitude that was contagious, and a genuine interest in helping those around him succeed. Whether he was working toward a goal, supporting a friend, or pursuing a new opportunity, Brett approached life with determination, integrity, and joy.

While we are heartbroken by this loss, we are committed to ensuring that Brett’s legacy continues to inspire future generations.

To honor Brett’s life and the promise he carried, the Kittle Property Family Foundation has committed $100,000 to establish the Kittle Property Family Foundation Brett Scrogham Real Estate Scholarship at Indiana University. The scholarship will be awarded annually to a student who demonstrates both a strong interest in and commitment to real estate development and/or affordable housing.

Brett believed in the power of education, hard work, and community. Through this scholarship, future students will have the opportunity to pursue those same passions and continue the work that Brett was so excited to begin.

No scholarship can replace the loss felt by Brett’s family, friends, classmates, and colleagues. However, it is our hope that this scholarship will serve as a lasting tribute to a remarkable young man whose future was filled with possibility and whose character left a lasting impression on everyone fortunate enough to know him.

We will share additional information regarding the Brett Scrogham Real Estate Scholarship and application process as details become available.

Our thoughts, prayers, and deepest condolences remain with Brett’s family, friends, and all who loved him.

His time with us was far too short, but his impact will not be forgotten.

Expanding Affordable Housing Stock for Seniors in Brevard Co. 

October 2025 – Indianapolis, IN – Just over 24% of the population of Brevard County, Florida is aged 65 or over- higher than the state’s average of 21.6%, according to the U.S. Census Bureau’s American Community Survey. Expanding access to affordable housing is something we focus on every day at Kittle Property Group. Our brand-new Sunset Palms development in Palm Bay will bring 263 affordable apartment homes to those in the Brevard County area.  

Sunset Palms will feature three 4-story buildings and one 3-story building, all with interior corridors. The community will consist of 1- and 2-bedroom apartment homes, all with rents at 60% of the Area Median Income (AMI). All of the buildings will meet the building requirements of the National Green Building Standard (NGBS) Bronze designation 

The recently released study by the Kenan Institute of Private Enterprise at the University of North Carolina and Fifth Third Bank found that Brevard had the highest growth rate among 100 midsized communities during the past five years, as measured by gross domestic product, as well as the second-highest growth rate over the last 10 years. Growth like this can make finding an affordable apartment increasingly difficult for seniors on a fixed budget. 
 

“It’s so important that seniors are able to find good affordable housing in the area they already live,” said Mike Roderer, Senior Vice President of Development. “Sunset Palms increase the quality of life of Brevard County area seniors by allowing them to continue living near friends and loved ones, their doctors, their activities and the places they are familiar with.”  

Financing for this community includes tax credits issued by the Florida Housing Finance Corporation. The Kittle Property Family Foundation, Inc. is the General Partner, and Brevard County HFA is the bond issuer.
