Acquisitions Update

Deal analysis continues to be at the forefront of our activities. Talking with Brokers, there is a consensus that more deals will hit the market in the upcoming months. Owners are increasingly open to reassessing the fair market value of their properties in today’s high-interest-rate environment. This shift is narrowing the gap between sellers’ ambitious asking prices and buyers’ realistic purchase offers.

In April, we reviewed and analyzed 12 multifamily investment deals. Informal offers were extended on two of these deals, and we are working with the Brokers to evaluate whether either deal makes sense for us to further pursue.

We also interviewed two more highly-recommended Property Managers this month, as we continue searching for rockstars to add to our team.

Market Update

Global investment powerhouse, Blackstone, recently announced that they have agreed to buy $10 BILLION worth of multifamily properties. With such a large investment, this suggests that the multifamily market may be headed back to normal, after 2023 was one of the lowest recorded transaction-volume years in recent history. It will be interesting to see how this move creates a ripple effect throughout the market. Learn more about the monumental acquisition here.
