    Mike Morawski - Multifamily Investing Insights on Metrics, Market Shifts, and Tax Strategies

    Key Takeaways Institutional investors may require a higher preferred return but typically accept a smaller equity share, offering flexibility in deal structuring. Policies like rent control can hinder cash flow, especially in areas with rising costs, affecting property valuations and investor returns. Population and job growth, along with household income, are vital indicators of a market’s potential to sustain rental growth and value appreciation. Diverse employment sectors mitigate risks during economic downturns, providing stability in occupancy and rental income. Working with city officials and economic development teams can ease processes like zoning, permitting, and provide incentives, benefiting both the property and local community. Investors should clarify if they’re prioritizing immediate cash flow or long-term appreciation to align with property performance expectations. Cost segregation is a powerful tool that enables investors to accelerate depreciation, significantly reducing taxable income and offering potential financial advantages.
