Understanding Some of the Risks of Multifamily Investing & How We Plan For Them

  • Mar 23

No investment is completely risk-free, and we believe the best investors are educated investors. That’s why we want to help you better understand the risks associated with multifamily investing, and show you how we work to thoughtfully plan for and mitigate those risks whenever possible.


Here are some of the key risks with multifamily investing to understand, and how we use experience and data to mitigate them through strategic research and planning:


Risk

What it is

Impact

Our approach

Market

  • Rent growth may be slower than expected

  • Tenants may not support projected increases

Lower income resulting in lower returns

We make smart, conservative rent assumptions and stress-test them. We understand the tenant leases in place, and focus on more stable, workforce housing

Renovation

  • Unexpected repairs

  • Higher construction costs

  • Project delays

Reduced profit or slower execution

We perform detailed due diligence, maintain strong project management to identify and address issues early, and strategically plan with well-funded contingency reserves and trusted partners

Interest Rate

  • Rising rates increase borrowing costs

  • Refinancing or sale becomes less favorable

Lower cash flow or exit value

We stress-test deals and secure favorable fixed-rate financing with trusted lending partners

Economic Downturn

  • Job losses can result in higher vacancy rates

  • Slower rent growth

Reduced income

We invest in workforce housing which is historically very resilient. We chose neighborhoods with employment base diversity so the local economy isn't dependent on a single industry or employer

Exit

  • Market conditions may not be ideal at sale

  • Cap rates may rise (reducing value)

Lower sale price

We focus on flexible exit timing and strong value creation for maximum profitability

Execution

  • Business plan isn’t fully achieved

  • Property management underperforms

Returns can fall short

We perform hands-on asset management and work with best-in-class partners and property managers. We build flexibility into our plans and monitor performance to help keep the investment on track toward projected returns


The reality is that every investment has risk.


The difference in multifamily:

  • Through research and planning before purchase, many risks are known, measurable, and manageable

  • Returns are driven by execution, not speculation
