Multifamily real estate investing is an investment alternative where a group of investors pool their money to purchase a multifamily dwelling. Typically, multi-family properties cost anywhere from $80,000 – $1,000,000+ depending on the amenities, building type, and market factors. Many investors use multifamily investment projects as a way to diversity their traditional investment portfolio as it is often thought of as a “recession-proof” investment option. For example, when interest rates are high, many Americans may choose to rent over buying their own home, so the property would continue to maintain high yields from rental income.
