Investment Overview
Knight Road Apartments is a stable, 21-unit garden-style community comprised entirely of highly desirable two-bedroom layouts. Built in 1984, the property operates at an efficient sub-50% expense ratio and boasts a historical occupancy rate of over 90%, currently sitting at 95% occupied.
This asset offers a proven and immediate value-add opportunity. Significant capital improvements have already been completed, with 16 of the units fully renovated to include modern finishes such as stainless steel appliances, LVP flooring, new cabinetry, and upgraded countertops. Despite these upgrades, current rents are below market. New ownership has a clear path to growing revenue by establishing rent premiums on the already renovated units, completing upgrades on the remaining units, and developing community amenities in the property's unused greenspace.
