Denver Investment Real Estate Chris Lopez - Denver Investment Broker

Want to know how a little-known real estate trend is generating 30-40% rent premiums over traditional apartments? This "horizontal multifamily" strategy allowed one company to achieve 95%+ occupancy and 8-10% annual rent increases, even in secondary markets.







Ryan Watts, co-founder of Red River Development, discusses key factors behind successful build-to-rent (BTR) communities - a game-changing approach that's attracting billions in institutional capital. After selling his previous company, Ryan partnered with real estate veterans to capitalize on this lucrative opportunity, growing to $400 million in assets under management in just a few years.







In this episode, Ryan breaks down:









* How to identify ideal secondary markets for maximum returns







* The proven formula for community amenities that command premium rents







* Why empty nesters are flocking to these communities alongside young families









Discover why BTR is being called "the future of rental housing" and how savvy investors can get in on the ground floor of this booming asset class. If you want to stay ahead of the curve in real estate investing, this is one episode you can't afford to miss.
