A 146-unit Whitefish complex takes shape, with 30% pledged as affordable

MMG lists the Whitefish Corridor Community on Texas Avenue as under construction, with an April 2027 completion. The developer says 30% of the homes will carry affordability deed restrictions.

A 146-unit apartment complex on Whitefish’s Texas Avenue is under construction, with the developer saying it will deed-restrict about 30% of the homes as affordable housing.

MMG Real Estate Advisors’ third-quarter pipeline lists the Whitefish Corridor Community, at 124 Texas Avenue, as under construction, with an April 2027 completion. The same row counts 146 units. A project page from Ruis Holdings describes seven buildings and a community gym at that address.

The development’s public information site says the owners “are committed to deed restricting 30% of this community development to Affordable Housing,” using income limits set by the government or a local affordability index. The site, which invites comments at projects@ruisconstruction.com, does not list rents or a phasing schedule.

The Ruis page still describes construction as beginning in spring 2025, language that appears to be leftover from an earlier stage. MMG’s August snapshot, taken later, already had the job in the under-construction column, with a finish date more than a year out.

Deed restrictions are only as strong as the paperwork behind them, and neither MMG nor the project site published the actual covenants. What can be said from the public materials is the unit count, the address, the 30% pledge and the fact that the buildings are now in the construction pipeline rather than on a drawing board.
