Advantages Of Trading Up To New Attractive A Class Properties

Have you considered trading up to A properties from B/C value add deals?

Trading Up To A Class From B/C Properties

I’ve interviewed many multifamily syndicators on the podcast and I’ve seen and heard a trend from these syndicators that many are shifting from B/C value add deals to existing A properties and/or new development.

What are some of the reasons I’m hearing for the shift?

  • prices for B/C multifamily properties have increased dramatically and the gap between B/C and A properties has narrowed
  • during Covid, tenants especially in C properties were more impacted and had a harder time paying rent. Many tenants in A properties were able to work from home where many tenants in C properties either lost their job or had hours cut back.
  • Rent as a percent of income is 1/3 for tenants in C class properties and is 1/6 for tenants in A properties so there is more cushion in case of a slow down. Tenants in A properties also typically have more savings in case of a slow down in the economy.
  • As the property is newer there is less deferred maintenance

Below are some podcast episodes that talk about this subject if interested in hearing more;

Why do I share this story with you?

I share this because I want each of you to learn from other successful investors in the industry. Many of these syndicators have shifted their focus from B/C properties to existing A properties and/or new development. I continue to invest in all three asset classes ( A/B/C) depending on the sponsor and the deal. I bring this to your attention as food for thought for each of you.
