Why Now Is the Moment to Invest—Even Amid Market Uncertainty

With inflation, interest rates, and global politics dominating the headlines, it’s understandable that many investors feel hesitant. But behind the noise, smart investors are quietly taking action—and with good reason.

Recent reports from GlobeSt and the National Association of Home Builders paint a clear picture:
– Rent growth is accelerating in key southern and tertiary markets
– New apartment development is slowing due to rising costs and policy uncertainty
– And private capital is flowing back into real estate, outpacing institutional activity

If you’ve been on the sidelines, this could be the moment to step in. Here’s why.

Rent Growth Is Happening—Right Where We Invest

According to GlobeSt, southern and tertiary markets like Charleston, Tampa, and Greenville are now leading the nation in rent growth. These are exactly the types of markets where Faris Capital Partners focuses our acquisitions.

What’s driving the growth?
– Migration trends: People continue moving from high-cost urban centers to more affordable, lifestyle-friendly regions
– Limited supply: In many of these markets, new development can’t keep up with demand
– Workforce housing pressure: Class B and C properties (our sweet spot) are seeing consistent demand as renters seek quality housing at affordable prices

In short, we’re seeing upward rental pressure in the exact places we operate—and that’s good news for investors.

Developers Are Pulling Back—Creating Less Competition

While demand is rising, supply is tightening.

The National Association of Home Builders recently reported that multifamily developer confidence dropped significantly in Q1 2025. Why?
– Construction costs remain high
– Labor shortages persist
– Economic and political uncertainty is making developers cautious

This slowdown in new construction is setting up a supply-demand imbalance that favors existing properties—especially value-add apartments that can be repositioned to meet today’s renter expectations.

This is the “why now” moment:
As fewer new buildings come online, existing renovated properties will be positioned to command premium rents in undersupplied markets.

Private Investors Are Leading the Charge

Another piece from GlobeSt highlights a major shift in the market:

Private investors—not institutions—are driving a surge in commercial real estate investment activity.

This matters because private buyers tend to move faster and be more opportunistic. They’re not waiting for perfect clarity—they’re acting on what the fundamentals say.

And the fundamentals are clear:
– Strong rental demand
– Declining new supply
– Attractive entry prices in key markets

At Faris Capital Partners, we’re aligning with this trend. We’ve built strong broker relationships to access deals that rarely hit the open market, and we’ve structured our acquisitions to benefit from the exact conditions unfolding right now.

Based on this convergence of data and opportunity, we’re excited to announce that we’re launching a new multifamily investment opportunity next week.

Here’s what we can share for now:
✅ Value-add strategies in high-demand, rent-growth markets
✅ Cash flow from day one

If you’ve been watching and waiting, now is the time to move from observation to action.
