Washington DC: 6.1% Return on Investment (2011) Washington DC is another metropolitan area that represents a highly difficult environment for investors.  With extremely high levels of regulation, high prices, and low rents relative to market value, it is not likely that investment properties in the nation’s capital will produce enough cash to cover their operating […]

Tampa, FL: 12.5% Return on Investment (2011) Moving up the Florida coast to Tampa reveals a somewhat less distressed market.  This stems from the fact that Tampa did not experience the same high-rise construction boom as Miami, and did not become oversupplied with high-cost condominiums.  As a result, the path to recovery for Tampa is […]

St. Robert, MO: 18.5% Return on Investment (2011) St. Robert is the city just outside of Fort Leonard Wood in Missouri.  By the standards of many investors, St. Robert seems like an extremely small market that is hardly worth consideration by income property investors.  However, the intrinsic demographics do not incorporate the impact of its […]

Seattle, WA: 2.9% Return on Investment (2011) The Seattle market experienced a significant value increase during the real estate bubble, peaking at the end of 2007 and dropping sharply during the financial crisis of 2008.  Toward the end of 2009, values began to show signs of emerging stabilization.  However, the correction resumed after the expiration […]

San Francisco CA: 5.2% Return on Investment (2011) San Francisco is another major market area in the state of California that has experienced significant challenges.  The rapid escalation of market prices during the real estate bubble has compressed cash flow so severely that investors are almost certain to realize a net negative cash flow for […]

San Antonio, TX: 16.1% Return on Investment (2011) San Antonio experienced value stabilization in 2009, coming off a 2007 value peak.  With fundamentally sound economics for the city, and a strong business environment, San Antonio is expected to resume its long-term trend of modest, steady value appreciation once a bottom in values is reached.  Our […]

Portland, OR: -0.6% Return on Investment (2011) Portland experienced a cyclical expansion of market values similar to many other areas, and saw a subsequent decline after the financial crisis of 2008.  The market showed signs of stabilization in 2009, but has subsequently resumed a downward correction.  Values in Portland are regressing toward a more linear […]

Phoenix, AZ: 19.4% Return on Investment (2011) Market values in Phoenix are currently at approximately the same level as in the year 2000.  The market area experienced a tremendous run-up during the real estate bubble and a spectacular during the financial crisis.  During 2010, the regression back to fundamentals continued in Phoenix.  For people who […]

Orlando, FL: 22.5% Return on Investment (2011) The city of Orlando experienced a tremendous increase in market prices from the year 2000 through 2006, and a downward correction in prices since the beginning of 2007.  As 2010 concludes and 2011 unfolds, we expect to see prices stabilize and regress toward a long-term linear growth trajectory.  […]
