29 Nov Meridian Property Management Top SFR Investment Benefits

When it comes to investing in real estate, deciding which type of property is best can be difficult to decide. Commercial, condos, multi-family buildings, and apartments are common options. Have you ever considered single-family residential properties? Residential real estate is one of the most stable investments and can generate the highest overall returns.  

Single-family real estate has trends, characteristics, and subtle nuances that influence each investment property. Meridian has identified three distinct categories which create a stable, properly leveraged real estate portfolio: 

Cash Flow: a strategy to maximize cash-on-cash return with high rent ratio properties 

Anchor: a conservative strategy that protects an investor’s principal.

IRR: a strategy designed to drive an investor’s wealth.

Combining these strategies allows investors to create a balanced portfolio while being properly leveraged across the risks associated with real estate investing. Building a portfolio with a mix of these strategies allows an investor to capitalize on each market segment’s benefits while leveraging the portfolio’s risks associated with vacancy, maintenance, market fluctuations, and liquidity.

Lower Maintenance: Newly constructed homes typically have low maintenance costs which helps to improve cash flow. Additionally, we provide our exclusive, high-end rental property management services with exceptional property upkeep, and have an on-call service team that ensures our investors do not lose money on sub-par property management.

Comparable Rent Ratios: Memphis holds a strong economic base with a number of Fortune 500 companies, is affordable in terms of wages and cost of housing, has a low vacancy rate, low maintenance due to non-extreme weather conditions, has very good rent ratios on properties and  very competitive cost points.

Highest Risk-Adjusted Returns: Meridian Pacific Properties specializes in high yield, Class A single-family property investments for wealth building and retirement planning. We streamline our vertical for maximum efficiency and for investors who are risk averse. We combine strategies that allow investors to create a balanced portfolio while being properly leveraged across the risks associated with real estate investing. Building a portfolio with a mix of these strategies allows an investor to capitalize on each market segment’s benefits while leveraging the portfolio’s risks associated with vacancy, maintenance, market fluctuations, and liquidity.

Less Tenant Turnover: Our team at Meridian Property Management maintains the lowest vacancy levels, provides exceptional property upkeep and has an on-call service team. Meridian beat competitors with a 95.8 percent occupancy rate. Vacancy sits low at only 4.2 percent and an exceptional 74 percent lease renewal rate.

We make it easy to invest in residential real estate. With decades of experience in build-to-rent, our parent company, Meridian Pacific Properties has streamlined the process to increase profitability and peace of mind for investors. Take advantage of the full-range of services including complimentary portfolio, financing and processing, and property management (that’s where we come in), deliver a complete solution to get the most value from your rental income property.

Memphis is a great place to invest because of these low vacancy rates, low maintenance rates, very competitive cost points, as well as a strong economic center. We’ve got an experienced acquisition team that’s out hunting for properties in the right neighborhoods at the right price points for them.

Once we find that property, our renovation crew will go out and renovate that property. We’ve got some very stringent standards that they have to adhere to. When they complete it, they turn it over to us and we begin placing quality tenants into that property. At that point, we’ve got a working asset, and only at that time will we sell that asset to an investor and we can show the existing returns on this property.
