Strategy
About Thousand Doors

Thousand Doors Group is an apartment syndication company that focuses on acquiring high potential apartment complexes located throughout the Sun Belt Regions of the US. These complexes provide us with the opportunity to implement our Value-Add Strategy, which will result in an increase in the value of the property. Thousand Doors also collaborates with other leading apartment syndication companies in the United States to join forces and acquire apartment complexes that can provide strong return potential for our investors. By partnering with Thousand Doors, our investors will not only be able to invest in the projects we identify, but also in the highest-performing apartment syndication projects across the nation.

Our Investment Strategy

Thousand Doors Group sources and acquires high-potential Class B/C apartment complexes of 70+ units across the Sun Belt Regions. Upon acquiring the property, we will implement our Value-Add Strategy by adding capital improvements, raising the rental rates to market standard, and reducing operational expenses. The implementation of our Value-Add Strategy will generally increase the value of the property by 40%-70% before we sell the optimized and stabilized property after 4-6 year hold.

​

At Thousand Doors Group, We Are Primarily Targeting Markets That Fulfill The Following Economic & Market Drivers/Criteria:

 

  • Steady Population Growth In The Area

Strong population growth will increase the housing demand in the area and continue to drive up the rental market. 

 

  • Apartment Rental Units Supply Constraints

The submarket must have high barriers to entry and a population growth sufficient enough to absorb the scheduled future supply of new apartments.

 

  • Steady Employment Growth In The Area

Strong employment drivers generate predictable rental income and reduce investment risk by maintaining high occupancy rates.

 

  • Healthy Multifamily Cap Rate Trends In The Area

In order to achieve our annual preferred returns for our investors, the economics of the metro area must be very strong.

 

  • Healthy Multifamily Occupancy Trends In The Area

Strong occupancy rates indicate a growing population that is outperforming the present unit supply.
