Comstock Acquires Rockville Multifamily Building, The Reed Joint acquisition further expands CHCI's Institutional Venture Platform RESTON, Va. — March 23, 2026 — Comstock Holding Companies, Inc. (Nasdaq: CHCI) (“Comstock” or the "Company"), a leading asset manager, developer, and operator of mixed-use and transit-oriented properties in the Washington, D.C. region, today announced that it has completed the acquisition of The Reed, a 417-unit Class A multifamily property located at 15955 Frederick Road in Rockville, Maryland. The acquisition was completed on behalf of a joint venture between the Company and a third-party Benefit Street Partners-advised institutional fund. Comstock Partners, LC, a privately held affiliate of the Company, co-invested in the joint venture. Two wholly owned subsidiaries of Comstock, CHCI Residential Management and ParkX Management, will provide best-in-class, customer-focused property management services for The Reed. Built in 2015, The Reed is located directly adjacent to the Shady Grove Metro Station and within walking distance to the restaurants, shops, and outdoor spaces in Rockville's bustling King Farm neighborhood. Its floor plans offer everything from cozy 1-bedroom apartments to expansive 3-bedroom layouts, each thoughtfully designed and well-appointed. The property includes a resort-style swimming pool, fitness center with yoga/boxing studio, clubroom, serene outdoor gathering spaces, multiple resident lounges, and a private parking garage. “This investment checks every box for us and we’re thrilled to partner with Comstock on this exceptional asset,” said Brian Buffone, Head of Equity Investments at Benefit Street Partners. “Comstock has a proven track record as a best-in-class operator.
