In 2025, the smart move for New Brunswick investors is clear: Buy more multifamily properties rather than just renting out single units. As Tverdov Housing's investment leader—managing 200+ units and scaling 50+ portfolios—the math and market fundamentals strongly favor expansion.
Key drivers:
- Rents: Averaging $2,627/unit (up 7.61% YoY, per RentCafe/Yardi).
- Occupancy: 95%+ near Rutgers, with regional vacancy under 6%.
- Yields: A $500K triplex can gross $60K-72K/year, delivering 10-12% cash-on-cash vs. 5-7% from singles.
- Growth: 3% rent increases + 2-4% appreciation projected.
Holding singles is safe but slow; buying multis compounds wealth through scale and forced appreciation (e.g., renos boosting rents 10-15%).
With balanced inventory, stabilizing rates (~6%), and strong demand from students/biotech pros, 2025 offers a prime buying window.
