WHY APARTMENT COMPLEXES?

CASH FLOW

After all expenses are paid, quarterly distributions go out to investors.

STABILITY

Multifamily is less volatile and continues to outperform traditional stock based investments.

TAX BENEFITS

Depreciation is a tax write-off that enables you to keep more of your profits.

LEVERAGE

You can leverage real estate, this allows you to buy a $10M property with only $2.5M.

AMORTIZATION

Residents pay down debt which creates equity, this leads to long-term wealth.

APPRECIATION

Emerging Markets

Choosing the “right” multi-family apartment complex to acquire is a critical aspect of Rush Capital Partners, LLC’s investment strategy. We are diligent in our exploration and focus on opportunities in emerging markets, where jobs and local economies are expanding.

EMERGING MARKETS ARE CHARACTERIZED BY

  • People moving in, rather than leaving the area

  • Jobs being created and moving in rather than lost

  • Rents and property values rising

  • Local government dedicated to attracting jobs

  • Markets starting to absorb oversupply

There are many indicators and a lot of research that goes into identifying an emerging market in the US. We start out by performing thorough market research that includes the following areas:

  • Job Growth Report

  • Population Growth

  • Path of Progress Reports

  • Local Economic Reports & Trends

  • Chamber of Commerce Reports

Acquisition Practices

Rush Capital Partner’s, LLC takes pride in building relationships with local listing brokers to get their “pocket listings” and access to other Bank Owned Properties (REO). Our searches include soliciting owners directly instead of waiting for properties to come to market.

Each asset undergoes a thorough due diligence process to confirm the physical and legal status of the property and to confirm valuations to ensure achievable investment strategies.

Early in the asset evaluation phase, the debt and equity financing strategy is developed based on a number of factors such as property type, magnitude of renovations, expected hold period and investor objectives. Each asset is typically held 5-10 years depending on its exact business plan.

INVESTMENT DISCIPLINE

Asset selection involves a systematic, routine evaluation to identify favorable demand characteristics, i.e., job and population growth, demographic shifts, supply absorption rates and positive local legislation.

Markets with supply constraints receive most favorable underwriting. Markets with signs of oversupply such as surplus land, changes in zoning and increases in building permits are avoided.

Value-Add Strategy

Think of it as a business rather than a building. The more income it generates, the more it is worth. When we purchase an apartment complex, we are looking for specific opportunities to increase the cashflow in different areas. These are called “Value Plays” or “Value Adding Components”.

VALUE PLAYS WE CAPITALIZE ON

  • Mismanagement cause by owner self-managing

  • Poor supervision of management companies

  • Deferred maintenance

  • High vacancies

  • Below market rents

Some examples of value-add plays we implement at Rush Capital Partners, LLC:

  • Improve curb appeal by improving landscaping, adding dog parks, carports, etc. Residents will pay more when a property is in better condition and has amenities.

  • Purchasing a property that is 10% or more under current market rents. This gives us the opportunity to increase rents and immediately increase the value of the property.

  • Implement a water and sewage bill-back system to charge the residents for actual usage. Most apartment owners pay for all the water. When we bill back the residents it helps offset expenses and increase the cash flow. Through this system residents tend to become more frugal and will decrease overall operating expenses.

  • Improve unit interiors with new paint, appliances, countertops, and floors

  • Adding a coin laundry facility to the complex

  • Below market rents

Path of Progress Strategy

A Path of Progress is where the greatest amount of building and development is currently happening, or soon to be.

A PATH OF PROGRESS IS WHERE:

  • Properties rapidly shoot up in appreciation

  • Majority of new construction is going on

  • Families and individuals are moving into the area

Investing in the Path of Progress yields the greatest returns in a short period of time.
