The year is off to a strong start! This month, we review January’s highlights, explore key real estate trends, and celebrate our latest achievements. Exciting opportunities lie ahead—let’s keep growing!
We recently hosted a webinar on the Eephus Growth Fund, and we wanted to make sure you didn’t miss out on the valuable insights shared:
January 2025 Market Update
Stock Market: S&P 500 hits new highs (SPY: $609.45) amid strong earnings and AI optimism, but analysts warn of a potential bubble.
Market Watch: TLT at $87.09, reflecting Fed rate cuts; investors await the next policy update. Read more here.
Reuters: VNQ at $90.84, showing resilience despite high mortgage rates. Gold Coast auction: $40M in sales (70% clearance), but housing shortages remain a concern. Read more here.
Multifamily Market Update
The multifamily sector is set for a rebound as interest rates ease and supply stabilizes. Improved lending conditions, rising household formation, and better buyer-seller alignment are boosting investor confidence. However, policy uncertainties under the new administration may impact the broader market.
Regional Trends:
Sun Belt (Phoenix, Las Vegas, Miami-Dade) sees strong rental demand due to in-migration.
Midwest (Detroit, St. Louis, Cleveland) faces slower growth but offers affordable housing opportunities.
With increased transactions and steady rent growth ahead, 2025 is shaping up as a pivotal year for investors.
Tax Season & Bonus Depreciation
Right Now, Bonus Depreciation Is 40%—Could 100% Return? As tax season nears, investors should watch for the potential reinstatement of 100% bonus depreciation, a key tax-saving tool for real estate.
Why It Matters:
✔ Lower taxes & better cash flow
✔ More reinvestment opportunities
✔ Stronger long-term returns
Legislative Update: The Tax Relief for American Families and Workers Act of 2024 has passed the House and is under Senate review. If approved, 100% bonus depreciation could be reinstated for properties placed in service after Dec. 31, 2022.
Why Act Now? Multifamily investors stand to gain the most—position yourself before potential changes take effect!
The year is already gaining momentum, and exciting opportunities lie ahead. With markets evolving and new investment prospects emerging, we’re focused on continued growth and success.
