Cottages at Mountain View presents institutional and private capital investors a forward-purchase opportunity to acquire a to-be-built, Class A detached build-to-rent community in Ooltewah, Tennessee—a premier, high-income submarket positioned directly on the I-75 corridor between Chattanooga and Cleveland. Developed by D.R. Horton, America's largest homebuilder by volume, Mountain View delivers true single-family living across 3BR/2.5BA, 4BR/2.5BA, and 5BR/3BA detached floorplans ranging from 1,749 to 2,361 SF—a product profile purpose-built for the durable, credit-worthy family-renter cohort underserved by conventional multifamily.
The forward structure allows capital to lock pricing and cost basis ahead of delivery, with construction and delivery risk borne by D.R. Horton and minimal near-term capital exposure, positioning the buyer to underwrite an attractive yield-on-cost on a clean, new-vintage asset. The investment is anchored by exceptional submarket fundamentals: median household income of $121,484 within a 2-mile radius, one of the highest income profiles in Hamilton County, and a community consistently ranked among the best and safest places to live in Tennessee.
Demand is reinforced by a diversified, two-metro employment base—anchored locally by McKee Foods and Southern Adventist University and complemented by the broader Chattanooga and Cleveland industrial economies—alongside no state income tax and sustained net in-migration into the region. The result is a defensively positioned asset combining new-construction quality, premium demographics, and the demand tailwinds of a high-conviction Southeast growth market.
