Real Estate Funds | Investing in real estate without being a millionaire

Multifamily properties are experiencing real gains in tenant demand that will lead to higher rental rates in 2022. The pendulum between renting and buying is swinging back in favor of rental properties as affordability and availability make homeownership extremely expensive today. New leases in many markets have already eliminated a free month or two and rental rates are moving to pre-pandemic levels. Suburban apartments are in higher demand than they were prior to 2020.
