WHY EMERGING MARKETS?
Ascendant Investments believes in buying only the best multi-family property investments with the highest potential of returns to investors. That is why our strategy is built on meticulous market research to find prime opportunities in Emerging Markets. As the real estate investing adage goes, it is all about “location, location, location!” For multi-family apartments, the perfect location is an Emerging Market.
Ascendant Investments determines an Emerging Market in the US through numerous indicators and comprehensive research. An initial snapshot of the following cues gives us a strong lead for potential emerging markets:
- Job Growth Report (local & regional)
- Population Growth
- Lower Multi-family New Construction (higher demand for existing construction)
- Path of Progress Reports
- Local Economic Reports & Trends
- Chamber of Commerce Reports
In addition to the above overall indicators, Ascendant Investments typically looks for the below characteristics in an Emerging Market:
Following the Emerging Market Graph above, an Emerging Market tends to appear soon after the Buyer’s Market II plot. Ascendant Investments acquire multi-family properties during Buyer’s Market II, then sell the assets between Seller’s Market I and Seller’s Market II to achieve massive gains.
