OUR INVESTMENT CRITERIA
We select markets with diversified economic sectors, a growing population, positive job growth and upward rental rate trends.
Diverse Economy | Population & Job Growth | Household Formation, Income & Rent Growth
Once we select the right market, we invest in properties that allow us to:
ADD VALUE
By fixing fix deferred maintenance, improving common areas, adding amenities such as a playground and dog park, and upgrading the interiors we can force the appreciable value of the property.
IMPROVE OPERATIONS
Operational improvements that are made in the management process to increase rent collection, tenant retention, and lease-up and to reduce expense items. Diligent oversight and control of the operating budget ensures target metrics are met. The result is an increase in the Net Operating Income leading to increased property valuation.
REPOSITION IN THE MARKET
As value add improvements are being made, further enhancement to the property can be made by repositioning and rebranding of the asset. This makes the property more desirable to tenants and future investors.
SELL THE ASSET IN 3-5 YEARS
By implementing diligent oversight and managing operations carefully, sufficient value can be created to allow the asset to be refinanced or sold within a three to five year timeframe.
