Article objective
-
Show that your company understands the current US market (interest rates, prices, demand, rents).
-
Attract investors (US and foreign) who are looking for a serious partner to invest in US real estate.
1. Introduction: why US real estate remains attractive in 2026
Explain that 2026 marks a more stable phase: sales are slightly increasing, prices are rising moderately, and mortgage rates are around 6–6.5%, which slightly improves affordability.
Add one sentence about your company’s positioning:
“Our role is to identify the markets and strategies that remain attractive in this environment.”
2. The US housing market context in 2026
Mention the main trends:
-
Moderate price growth at the national level (around +1–4% according to various analyses).
-
A mild recovery in sales after several years of stagnation, with inventory improving but still below pre‑2020 levels.
Explain what this means for an investor: less frenzy than in the post‑Covid years, but still big differences between cities and property types.
3. The most attractive segments for investors
-
Rental residential (single‑family homes and small multifamily) in markets where rental demand remains strong thanks to jobs and demographics.
-
Multifamily real estate in some regions where supply is increasing and rents are stabilizing, which can create good entry points for patient investors.
“Niche” sectors to watch:
-
Senior housing, driven by the aging US population.
-
Secondary and tertiary markets that are more affordable than major metros but have solid employment prospects.
4. Where to invest: types of markets to focus on
Explain that the goal is not to give a “magic list” of cities, but clear criteria:
-
Job and population growth.
-
Stable or slightly rising rents while prices remain reasonable.
-
Attractive gross rental yield relative to the cost of financing.
You can give 2–3 examples of market profiles:
-
Fast‑growing cities in the South and Midwest with lower entry prices.
-
Suburbs of major metropolitan areas where demand for family homes remains strong.
5. Investment strategies suited to 2026
-
Buy & hold rental: buying properties to hold long term, benefiting from stable rents and modest price appreciation.
-
Value‑add: buying properties that need improvement (renovation, better management, repositioning) to increase value and rents.
-
Diversification: combining different property types (single‑family, small multifamily) and different cities to spread risk.
6. Key risks to manage
-
Interest rate risk: rates remain relatively high, so it is crucial to calculate returns carefully.
-
Local market risk: some regions are more exposed (natural disasters, insurance issues, economic decline).
-
Management risk: vacancy, tenant selection, and remote management for foreign investors.
7. How your company supports investors
Explain your role clearly:
-
Market analysis and location selection.
-
Sourcing opportunities (houses, buildings, projects).
-
Support with structuring (US legal structure, financing, property management).
Show how you make the investor’s life easier:
“You do not need to know every market in detail – we filter the opportunities and present projects tailored to your risk profile.”
