Peter Firehock Multifamily Market Outlook for the Washington D.C. Metro
17 February 2025 | 6 replies
With a large portion of the incoming migration coming from international residents moving to the District, emphasizing improving and bringing back Washington D.C. sports teams to the city should create a strong desire for domestic residents to want to live near a fun, community engaging activity that is very relevant to those that live in and around the city.The District also has other programs it is running to make the District more attractive to live in outside of just working in the area, such as the Office to Anything program (Source) and the Housing in Downtown program (Source) which will incentivize developer through tax credits to convert office buildings into new construction housing and new construction retail properties, which should continue to attract more residents back to the area.D.C. also understands that with all of these big changes we have seen, the strategy and allocation of resources from the government moving forward should be reassessed to create a city that is adapting to the future trends to remain a safe and desirable place for residents to live.

I can buy a 2-4 unit with 20% down vs conventional can only buy a 2-4 INVESTMENT property with 25% down 4. there are options where DSCR loans dont repot to personal credit, helps in not having to show a bunch of paperwork or not one person in a partnership has to carry the debt5. way less paperwork to close on this loan type vs a conventional loan. we care about the income of the property you're buying and it's ability to service the debt of the property whether we use long term rents income, lease income, or air dna/bnb income.6. easily buy in partnerships, add people to your operating agreement, its as easy as that so bring partners into a deal. helps with scaling and raising capital or getting partners involved7. gift funds allowed to close on these as well, and like I said earlier, there's only a 10day seasoning period of funds with some lenders so that means you can literally have a private money lender deposit money into your account 11 days before closing, and you can use those funds to close!
