Multifamily Investing 101: Mastering Rental Demand Analysis

Mark Faris and John Makarewicz uncover how to accurately assess rental demand and target markets poised for strong cash flow and long-term appreciation.

About This Episode

Most investors focus too much on price and overlook critical factors that drive rental demand. Without analyzing key data points like population growth, affordability, and competition, even a well-priced asset can underperform. In this episode, Mark Faris and John Makarewicz uncover how to accurately assess rental demand and target markets poised for strong cash flow and long-term appreciation.

They discuss:

✔️ 3 Key Questions to Ask Before Investing: Are people moving in? Can tenants afford the rents? What competition is coming?

✔️ How to Identify Markets with Strong Demand: Using tools like the U-Haul One-Way Mover Report, USPS Change of Address data, and CoStar Analytics.

✔️ Why Today is One of the Best Times to Invest: High demand, limited new supply, and below-replacement acquisition costs create a rare opportunity.

✔️ The Importance of Submarket Analysis: Why understanding local employment, economic diversity, and new construction pipelines is essential.

✔️ How to Create a Competitive Advantage: Positioning assets as high-value alternatives to new Class A developments while maintaining lower costs
