Helping Real Estate Investors Invest in Multifamily Apartments in the United States.

Fewer cranes, fuller buildings. 📊

Cushman & Wakefield's third-quarter data shows the apartment market tightening:
🔹 Fewer than 480,000 units are under construction, the lowest since 2015
🔹 About 350,000 units absorbed so far this year, up 14% and the strongest pace since 2021
🔹 Vacancy fell to 8.6%, its third straight quarterly decline
🔹 Asking rents rose 2.3% year over year, and rent growth in the South turned positive

Our take: the South is still the slowest region to recover, but it's moving. With fewer new buildings on the way, we stay focused on what we control: retention, responsive service and disciplined operations.

National headlines move markets. Local jobs move renters.

Before we look at any deal, we look at four things on the ground:
🔹 Local job growth in the metro and submarket
🔹 Who is hiring, and how diverse the employer base is
🔹 Whether local incomes support the rent
🔹 How much new supply is coming nearby

Swipe for the questions every passive investor should ask about a market. 👉

Apartment demand is catching up to supply. 📊

According to RealPage's third-quarter data:
🔹 About 318,000 new units were completed over the past year, while renters absorbed about 304,800
🔹 That 13,000-unit gap is the smallest since late 2015
🔹 Completions are down about 46% from their late-2024 high
🔹 Effective asking rents rose 0.9% year over year, the first annual gain since Q2 2025

Our take: the recovery isn't arriving everywhere at once. The South is still digesting new supply, so we stay focused on what we control: retention, responsive service and disciplined operations.

Realistic assumptions. Upside through ex*****on.

That's how RR Living CEO Melanie French described her team's approach to 2027 budgets in Multifamily Dive this week, and it's a mindset we share.

Rent growth is something the market gives you. Ex*****on is something you earn every day: fast responses, quality maintenance and residents who choose to stay.

Operators are writing 2027 budgets, and the theme is clear: achievable, not aspirational.

Multifamily Dive spoke with leaders at Bell Partners, CAPREIT, Bainbridge, The Michaels Organization and others. Three shifts stood out:

🔹 Budgets built from the property up, with marketing spend that flexes with local demand
🔹 More focus on retention, renewals and preventive maintenance than on big rent increases
🔹 Technology that has to prove its value, or it gets cut

Our take: when rent growth is modest, operational excellence is the advantage. That's why Faris Property Management runs on written standards, from one-hour leasing responses to 90-day renewal outreach.

Your distribution hit your account. But is it a return ON your capital, or a return OF it?

One word apart, very different meanings:

🔹 Return ON capital is what your money earns: cash flow and profit above what you invested
🔹 Return OF capital is your own money coming back, often from a refinance or sale. It is not profit.
🔹 Mixing the two up can make an investment look more profitable than it is

Before your next investment, ask your sponsor: Is this distribution a return on or of my capital? How is my capital account tracked? How are refinance and sale proceeds treated?

The new-supply wave is shrinking, and it's starting to show up in the numbers.

According to Yardi Matrix:

🔹 1.2 million apartment units were in lease-up in August, down from a 1.4 million peak in early 2025
🔹 Total occupancy reached 93.9%, up 50 basis points since January, as new buildings fill
🔹 Rents rose 0.3% in Q3, the first third-quarter gain in four years

Fewer new deliveries means less competition for existing communities. For well-run Class B apartments, that can mean fewer lease-up specials to compete against and steadier renter demand. Yardi calls the fourth quarter "an important test," and we'll keep focusing on what we control: retention and operations.

What does "Love Lives Here" look like on an ordinary day?

With Faris Property Management now operating, our resident experience runs on written standards, not good intentions:

🔹 Every leasing inquiry gets a personal response within one business hour
🔹 Every maintenance request is acknowledged within 24 hours, with automatic escalation if it isn't
🔹 Every new resident gets a follow-up call within 72 hours of move-in
🔹 Renewal conversations start 90 days before a lease ends

Behind them: 5 operational manuals, 58 documented processes and a six-session staff training program. The same service standards apply across all seven Faris Residences communities.

For residents, that means care they can count on. For investors, it means operations built for retention and long-term performance.

Apartment concessions are easing. They're still costly.

The share of U.S. apartment units offering concessions dipped to 15.4% in August, down from a 17% spring peak. But the discounts themselves got bigger.

🔹 15.4% of units offered concessions in August, vs. 14.5% a year earlier
🔹 The average concession reached 11% of annualized rent, up from 9.7%, or roughly 5.7 weeks free on a 12-month lease
🔹 Austin (35.3%), San Antonio (33%) and Denver (32.3%) led the country

Concessions follow new supply. Record deliveries in 2024 and 2025 are still being absorbed, and owners are paying to win move-ins. That's why we put resident retention first: a renewal never needs a move-in special.
