The National Apartment Association recently reported that the U.S. needs about 4.6 million new multi-family units by 2030 to keep up with demand. That’s about 328,000 new units annually over the next 10 years.
National Apartment AssociationResidential real estate is one of our core areas of focus for the simple reason that the sector has long held strong against uncertainty and economic swings, and demand for rentals has continued to grow.
Over the past 20 years, the Barber Partners team has overseen $2.7B in transactional value with 0 significant loss from the residential and multifamily sectors. We believe with current economic conditions and consumer preferences that this sector will continue to perform. Occupancy rates remain high nationally for the simple reason that everyone needs somewhere to live.
Individuals and families, young professionals and baby boomers make up a growing renter demographic that spans generations and income levels. While many people rent out of necessity, a growing number of people are choosing to rent for the flexible and community-oriented lifestyle it offers. That trend has opened up a wide opportunity for properties across multi-family classes, from A-class luxury to C-class workforce housing.
Our focus on residential and multifamily housing aligns well with these current economic conditions and consumer preferences. Residential rentals continue to perform, and occupancy rates remain high nationally for the simple reason that everyone needs somewhere to live.
