Multifamily Real Estate Investment
Definition
Multifamily real estate investment entails the development or acquisition of properties designed to accommodate multiple households, aimed at generating rental income and potentially realizing long-term appreciation."
Multifamily Real Estate Investment
Here is the way it works
Our focus is on multifamily real estate that it is acquired and then rented out to Tenants .
Tenants, pay rents to live in the properties. Some of the income from the rent is used to pay for operating expenses , such as:
u Property taxes,
u Utilities,
u External illumination,
u Trash collection,
u Maintenance,
u Management expenses, etc.
After subtracting the Expenses from the total income, we arrive at THE NET OPERTAING INCOME.
Multifamily Properties Investments , as any investment instrument, are valued based on their Rates of Return. (CAP RATE)
The example shows a 4plex with a total gross rent in the amount of $47,532.00 . Other incomes and concessions , minus total expenses , bring to the owner an annual net operating income of $36,304.40.
