15% profit per year by investing in Quest residential homes at Austin
Every EGCM portfolio aims to diversify through a wide range of properties. Here's an example of one deal that strengthened investors' portfolios.
Investing in real estate has always been considered one of the most lucrative forms of investment. With the recent success of the Austin-area apartment development, the benefits of investing in well-priced and well-located properties in growing areas have become even clearer. The project generated an annualized return of roughly 15%, providing quarterly dividends for Growth eREIT investors.
In May 2019, a $9 million investment was made in the construction of the Quest apartment homes, a 333-unit apartment community located in a major suburb of Austin. Despite the broader economic uncertainty brought by global inflation, the Ukraine war, and US-China tensions, early leasing efforts at the property were promising. Just two months after completing construction, the property was already 38% occupied.
After completing construction in the fall of last year, the project's sponsor shifted focus to lease up the newly-built property. Despite the challenging economic conditions, the success of the project was not only in the rapid leasing of units but also in the successful sale of the property, which allowed for full repayment of the investment. Per the terms of the preferred structure investment (similar to debt), an annualized return of 15% was earned over the life of the investment.
The real estate industry continues to experience a K-shaped recovery, where some asset classes, including suburban apartments in the Sunbelt, are seeing increased demand as well as improved financing due to considerable interest rates. This success further reinforces the conviction around similar investments in the portfolio, providing an optimistic outlook for the future.
Investors may be wondering how this project will impact their portfolio. This investment was structured like debt, where the project's sponsor paid a fixed rate of return before earning a return for themselves. This structure provided a cushion against losses and generated regular income, supporting quarterly dividends for the growth eREIT.
