Austin, Texas – September 07, 2026 -- Direct Equity Source has acquired three self-storage properties in Granbury, Texas, in partnership with its operations partner, expanding its real estate portfolio in one of North Texas' fastest-growing communities.
Firm targets recession-resistant assets amid population growth
The Granbury acquisitions add to Direct Equity Source's strategy of building income-producing real estate holdings across Texas and other high-growth U.S. markets.
