Some people believe they have to invest in their backyard, in the state they live in. I believe there are other indicators to look for that are more important than where you live.

What should you look for in a market when investing in multifamily real estate?

  • Population growth
  • Household formation growth
  • Job growth
  • Income growth
  • Landlord friendly

Why are these factors important?

  • increased population and household formation growth will increase the number of people competing for both residential homes and multifamily rentals
  • it’s important to see job growth and income growth so that tenants are able to afford the rent for multifamily properties, especially as rental rates continue to rise

What states do I think are good growth markets?

  • TX, Dallas, Houston, Austin, San Antonio
  • AZ, FL, NC, SC, TN, GA
  • Other markets: these are markets that I’ve been told from other strong syndicators that provide stable cash flow; Indianapolis, Cleveland, Louisville

Why do I share this story with you?

When I started looking to invest in real estate I did not know what to look for. I thought buying in my backyard was important. I learned from others that the above factors are more important indicators. I decided to invest in growth markets and the returns thus far have been impressive.
