If 2024 felt like a stormy sea of challenges ā rising rates, uncertainty, and hesitation ā letās flip the script. Hereās what makes 2025 different:š„ Why 2025 is YOUR Year to Buy Multifamily:1ļøā£ Baby Boomers are Retiring ā 40% of small businesses (and a lot of multifamily properties) are owned by baby boomers. Many are looking to retire, and their kids donāt want to take over. That leaves a massive opportunity for you to step in and acquire these properties! š¢2ļøā£ $1 Trillion in Loans Coming Due ā Properties financed in 2020-2021 are hitting maturity. With elevated rates, many owners face tough choices: refinance, raise capital, or sell. Guess what? That means more buying opportunities for you! š°3ļøā£ New Construction is Stalling ā The high cost of materials, labor shortages, and rising interest rates have slammed the brakes on new builds. Fewer new units coming online means less competition and more demand for existing properties. šļø4ļøā£ Election Year Energy ā With the election behind us, market uncertainty fades. Pro-business policies and potential rate cuts could fuel a wave of capital and optimism in the real estate market. šš³ļøš ļø Whatās Holding You Back?If youāve been waiting for the āright time,ā itās here. The opportunities are out there, and 2025 is shaping up to be the year of action, not hesitation.Iāve used these exact strategies to build a portfolio of over 3,500 units. Everything I talk about on this podcast is what I do every day to make multifamily investing work. And guess what? You can do it too.š§ Listen to the full episode to learn how to position yourself for success in 2025!
