Delaware Multifamily FOCUS
Riding the Wave: Strong Market Fundamentals Amin Rising Costs
CBRE RESEARCH

January 2025
CBRE

The Delaware multifamily market is navigating a paradox. On one hand, market fundamentals remain robust, with rising rents and a shrinking supply pipeline providing tailwinds for property owners. On the other hand, rising insurance premiums, escalating real estate taxes, and the “higher for longer” interest rate environment are creating significant financial pressure.

In this landscape, boosting Net Operating Income (NOI) is no longer optional—it’s essential. Every dollar saved or earned can help offset rising expenses and maintain your property’s profitability.

One of the most effective ways to start is with a comprehensive market rent survey. Understanding how your property is positioned in its competitive landscape is critical. Are you leaving revenue on the table by underpricing? Are there untapped opportunities for premium amenities or ancillary income? Our in-depth surveys go beyond surface-level data to uncover actionable insights tailored to your submarket.

As market conditions remain challenging, now is the time to take proactive steps to optimize your property’s performance and future-proof your investment. Let us help you uncover opportunities to thrive.

Contact us to schedule a market rent survey and discover what’s possible for your property.
