Market analysis
- New Supply
- Submarket physical occupancy at 92%; sponsor projecting 93% economic occupancy during hold
Principal risks
- R01Bluerock is projecting economic occupancy at 93% during the hold period. This is aggressive as the submarket physical occupancy is only 92%.
- R02The cap rate to investors is low (4.91%).
- R03The property is currently occupied at only 84%. This is concerning as the sponsor projects occupancy of 93% during the hold term and this may affect distribution to investors as they need time to lease up to projected levels.
- R04The underwriting assumptions of the sponsor for the hold term are aggressive. They project 5% rental income growth in year 2 of the investment, which may be hard to attain if the property is still experiencing lower than projected occupancy.
