ResProp Management has been selected as the management partner for Babers Manor, a newly opened affordable apartment community in Fort Worth's historic Stop Six neighborhood. The announcement highlights a multi-agency effort under the Stop Six Choice Neighborhood Initiative (CNI), a collaborative project involving Fort Worth Housing Solutions, Urban Strategies, Inc. (USI), McCormack Baron Salazar, and ResProp Management. The partnership aims to transform the area by delivering high-quality, attainable housing and comprehensive support services.
Babers Manor offers modern one- to three-bedroom layouts designed to accommodate a range of income levels. Homes are available for households earning 30%, 50%, 60%, and 80% of the Area Median Income (AMI), as well as market-rate housing. The community participates in several housing assistance programs, including Housing Choice Vouchers (HCV), Project-Based Vouchers (PBV), Permanent Supportive Housing (PSH), and the Low-Income Housing Tax Credit (LIHTC) program. This mixed-income approach is intended to foster economic diversity and stability within the community.
Residents benefit from a thoughtfully curated array of in-home and community features. Each apartment includes open-concept layouts with kitchen islands, farmhouse sinks, wood-style flooring, white granite countertops, and stainless steel appliances, plus full-size washers and dryers. Select units offer 9-foot ceilings and private patios. Shared amenities include a fully equipped fitness center, resident clubhouse, business center, controlled-access entrances, two shaded playgrounds, and a dedicated on-site social service program. These features are designed to support modern living and community connection.
ResProp emphasizes a community-first approach to property management. Ahead of the opening, the firm hosted a pre-leasing community event, giving returning Stop Six residents and neighbors a sneak peek at the property during construction. "We don't view properties simply as unit counts; they are environments where people build their lives," said Luke Leins, ResProp's Senior Vice President of Business Development. "Our focus at Babers Manor is simple: protect the asset, care for the people, and build a neighborhood residents love." An official Grand Opening celebration was held in September 2026, featuring local government officials, project stakeholders, and community members.
The opening of Babers Manor represents a significant step in the revitalization of Stop Six, a neighborhood with a rich history. The Stop Six CNI is part of a broader federal effort to transform distressed public and assisted housing into sustainable, mixed-income communities. For readers and industry observers, the project underscores the growing role of private management firms in large-scale public housing initiatives. ResProp Management, headquartered in Austin, TX, oversees more than 19,000 apartment homes across Florida, Texas, North Carolina, South Carolina, and Tennessee. The firm's involvement in Babers Manor signals a model where operational excellence is paired with social service coordination, potentially setting a benchmark for future affordable housing partnerships.
