Strategy
Focus on delivering strong returns through value-add capital expenditures including renovations tailored to maximize rent premiums.
The Fund invests in markets with superior job growth and rent to income ratios compared to gateway markets and national averages. Targeted suburban garden-style multifamily investment has provided superior recent returns and comparable twenty-year returns when compared to urban product, with markedly lower volatility. Performance outcomes are consistent with the increase in the market for workforce households and the increase in urban core deliveries since 2012.
Target Markets
- Vibrant secondary markets in the Midwest and Southeast U.S.
- Attractive job growth and supply / demand dynamics
- Significantly lower rent to income ratios than gateway markets
- Target 14% - 16% gross IRR
Target Assets
- Middle-income focused suburban garden-style and mixed use
- Desirable submarkets with favorable demographics and high barriers to entry
- Accessibility to nearby interstates, retail, employment, and good schools
- Post-renovation rents remain below 25% rent to income ratio
- All-in costs below replacement costs
