Recognizing the Value of Unit Density in Acquisition Opportunities
Unit density is a valuable metric when exploring acquisition opportunities, particularly when a parcel’s existing number of units equals or exceeds the allowable limit. The parcel has already reached or exceeded its maximum Unit Density in such cases.
Targeting Properties with Maximized Density for Stable Cash Flow
Investors seeking stable cash flow can focus on properties that have utilized their density potential. Depending on the investment strategy, Core or Value Add, the age of a building should also be considered. Older buildings offer opportunities for improvements and higher rents.
Assessing Market Constraints and Opportunities through Unit Density Analysis
Investors can gain insights into increasing land constraints. If a city exhibits marginal differences between existing and potential units, it suggests limited development opportunities. Property values will likely continue rising due to the scarcity of new construction options.
