A 126-unit multifamily asset adjacent to Cal Poly Humboldt — offered at $12M cash, representing an 8.44% going-in cap rate against a 6.9% market average. RUBS implementation, vacancy lease-up, and MTM lease conversion drive a 22% base-case IRR over a 3-year hold.

Investment thesis

Six drivers of
outperformance.

01
Cal Poly Humboldt demand anchor
Adjacent to a university targeting 50% enrollment growth with a $500M state investment. On-campus housing accommodates only one-third of students — creating a structural, persistent rental demand regardless of economic cycle.
02
Supply-constrained market
Zero new multifamily deliveries in the past 12 months. Only 71 units under construction — 2 affordable, none directly competing. Entry well below replacement cost at $95,238/unit vs. $156,000 regional average.
03
150 bps above market cap rate
8.44% going-in cap rate vs. 6.9% Eureka-Arcata market average. The spread is structural — driven by operational inefficiency, not asset quality. Cash flow acquisition eliminates financing risk entirely.
04
RUBS — the single largest lever
Owner currently absorbs all water and gas. Converting to a Ratio Utility Billing System shifts $40–80K annually to tenants. This single initiative alone can compress the cap rate by 30–65 bps at exit.
05
Immediate NOI improvement
8 vacant units + below-market MTM leases represent $157,896 in recoverable annual revenue. No renovation required — purely leasing and management execution within 90 days of close.
06
All-cash — zero rate risk
A $12M all-cash offer wins over a $12.3M financed offer in this market. No debt service means 100% NOI retention from day one. No refinancing risk, no lender covenants, no forced exit scenarios.

Other income levers
Total annual NOI upside: $170,000–$215,000 — compresses exit cap rate and drives valuation gain
01
High priority
Utility sub-metering (RUBS)
+$40,000–$80,000/yr
Owner currently absorbs all water and gas. RUBS shifts $40–80K to tenants. Single largest NOI lever. Can be implemented at close or within 60 days via vendor contract.
02
High priority
Stabilize vacancies — 90-day plan
+$133,920/yr
8 vacant residential units leased at blended $1,395/mo. 5 near-term turnover units re-leased at or above market. Full occupancy targeted by end of Q2 2026.
03
High priority
Laundry contract renegotiation
+$14,000/yr
$31,612 current laundry revenue is below market (~$45–50K achievable on 126 units). New vendor agreement or revenue-share renegotiation at close.
04
Medium priority
Pet fee enforcement & expansion
+$18,000–$22,000/yr
$75/month policy in place but inconsistently enforced. Estimated 20–25 pets on property. Full compliance and pet-friendly marketing at acquisition.
05
Medium priority
Below-market MTM lease conversion
+$23,976/yr
8 units significantly below market on MTM. Key examples: Unit 08B $950→$1,495 (+$545/mo), Unit 16I-2 $700→$1,080 (+$380/mo). Natural turnover over 12–18 months.
06
Medium priority
Storage repricing & unit recovery
+$5,000–$8,000/yr
Current storage at $75–$125/unit is below market. Repricing to $150–$200/mo on all available units. Owner-occupied units released at close.

Risk factors & mitigants

Disclosed upfront.
Managed at close.

Deferred maintenance
High
Built 1961. Maintenance costs rose 25% YoY ($232K→$290K). Materials job in 2024 was $109K — possible capital misclassification.
Mitigant: Full PCA and reserve study required as hard closing condition. Credit negotiated for any identified deferred items above threshold.
Holdover / expired leases
High
Three units (04A, 02A, 06B) have leases expired 6–8 months ago with no renewal. California tenancy law creates legal exposure.
Mitigant: Seller required to resolve all holdover situations prior to close or escrow holdback established. Legal counsel engaged at signing.
Utility easement
Medium
An unresolved utility easement is being evaluated. Potentially prevents original contractor's planned construction on the site.
Mitigant: Clean title required as closing condition. Easement does not affect income-producing operations; any cloud cleared before funding.
Declining local population
Medium
CoStar demographics show 2-mile population declining 0.5% through 2030. Household formation slightly negative.
Mitigant: Cal Poly Humboldt enrollment growth is the primary demand thesis — counter-cyclical to residential population. Closely monitored.
Rising vacancy trend
Medium
Property vacancy moved from 2.4% to 3.2% over the past year, slightly above the 1.4% competitor average.
Mitigant: Current 8 vacancies actively leasing. Stable 2BR portfolio (only 1 vacant) offsets 1BR softness. $1,395 1BR rents well within market.
Single-market concentration
Low
Arcata/Eureka is a small secondary market with limited transaction volume. Exit liquidity is thinner than major metros.
Mitigant: Entry at $95K/unit vs. $156K regional average creates natural downside floor. Cash buyer market favors private transactions.
Buy with Conviction.
