Are you looking for a wise investment? If so, multifamily real estate may be the perfect option for you! There are many reasons why multifamily properties are a sound investment, including:
1. Steady demand: People will always need a place to live! Multifamily properties that are in good condition, located in great neighbourhoods, well-managed and provide steady cashflow are in high demand. If you purchased the property well and have done a great job at managing the asset you could be presented with multiple opportunities, whether you decide to hold on to your investment long-term, or to exit the market.
2. Low maintenance: Multifamily properties could require less maintenance than individual single-family homes. Similar to the economies of scale principle, any major repairs that need to get done could be "spread" among multiple units within one building, which also allows to obtain competitive quotes from different firms and keep costs "per unit" lower. Your personal time can also be freed up by hiring a property manager to manage multiple units or multiple buildings.
3. High occupancy rates: With the current economic conditions and rising interest rates, many people prefer renting rather than taking a risk and trying to get into the market. This means that your property is likely to be occupied most of the time with low vacancy rates, generating cashflow, while being maintained by professionals.
4. Variety of options: Whether you’re an experienced investor of just starting out and looking for your first investment property, the multifamily industry offers a variety of options to choose from. You can invest in a small complex with just a few units yourself or go all out and purchase a large apartment building with multiple partners. The choice is yours!
5. Potential for scale: Multifamily real estate offers a great opportunity to scale and work on larger deals with multiple partners and team members. Bigger deals tend to demand more work and larger amounts of effort, but they also tend to generate larger returns that allow to hire experienced and talented people. An experienced team could result in a larger network, more opportunities, momentum and closing more deals, which results in larger "rewards" and creates a cycle of scale that's hard to compete with.
