What is KADAK Multifamily's buy box?

Class A and Class B garden, mid-rise, and select high-rise multifamily communities in high-growth U.S. markets, typically 200+ units, with deal sizes from $25M to $150M+. We pursue core-plus, value-add, recapitalization, and select special situations. Full written criteria live on our Buy Box page.

Which markets is KADAK most active in?

Dallas–Fort Worth, Austin, Houston, San Antonio, Phoenix, Nashville, Charlotte, Raleigh, Atlanta, Tampa, and Orlando are core. Mountain West and Carolinas submarkets are watch-list active. We add markets when employment, in-migration, and supply dynamics justify a permanent operating presence.

How does KADAK select a market?

Four filters: diversified employment with at least two structural drivers, durable net in-migration, credible household-formation tailwinds, and a supply picture we can underwrite at the submarket level. A market that fails any of the four — even temporarily — moves to the watch list.

Will KADAK look at tertiary or secondary markets?

Selectively. A tertiary market must have a credible primary-employer thesis, real housing-formation pressure, and submarket-level supply visibility. Story deals in thin markets without that foundation are a fast no.

What vintage and unit count does KADAK target?

Class A: typically 2015+ vintage, 200+ units, in supply-absorbing submarkets. Class B: 1995–2010 vintage, 200+ units, where a defined operating thesis can drive yield-on-cost expansion through hold. We do not chase 1970s-era deep value-add as a strategy.

Does KADAK acquire student or seniors housing?

No. Our mandate is conventional market-rate multifamily — workforce and lifestyle communities serving the broad rental population. Student, seniors, manufactured housing, and short-term rentals are outside the buy box.

How does KADAK underwrite insurance and property taxes?

Bottom-up. Insurance is built off live carrier quotes and projected forward at a rate consistent with submarket loss history — never a generic CPI bump. Taxes are modeled to assessor methodology with post-sale reassessment risk priced explicitly. Both are the difference between a real underwrite and a marketing model.

Will KADAK look at new construction or lease-up assets?

Yes — at the right basis. Class A lease-up at a meaningful discount to replacement cost is one of our highest-conviction trades in the current cycle. We will not chase stabilized pricing on partially leased rent rolls.

What multifamily assets does KADAK Multifamily buy in Georgia?

KADAK acquires institutional-quality Class A-, B+, and strong B multifamily communities in Georgia — 100+ units, preferably 1990+ vintage, in submarkets supported by employment, school districts, and durable renter demand. We pursue core-plus, light value-add, recapitalizations, assumable-debt situations, and select special situations.

Does KADAK Multifamily review off-market and brokered deals in Georgia?

Yes. We actively engage both brokered offerings and off-market conversations in Georgia. Complete packages — OM, T-12, current rent roll, and in-place debt summary — receive principal-level feedback within 48–72 hours, and off-market dialogue is handled with strict confidentiality.

Will KADAK Multifamily consider recapitalizations or assumable-debt deals in Georgia?

Yes. Recapitalizations, GP/LP restructurings, joint ventures with existing sponsors, and assumable-debt transactions are core to our mandate in Georgia — especially where the in-place capital stack has trapped a good asset and a basis reset can restore long-hold economics.

Does KADAK Multifamily partner with local property managers in Georgia?

Yes. We build long-term relationships with best-in-class regional operators in Georgia to manage assets we acquire. Groups with a track record on 100+ unit Class A/B communities are encouraged to introduce their platform through our operator partnership page.

How quickly does KADAK Multifamily respond on a Georgia opportunity?

On complete Georgia packages that fit the buy box, we provide principal-level feedback within 48–72 hours. We are direct with brokers and sellers about whether an opportunity is a fit — no false optionality, no fishing.

Multifamily Acquisitions in Savannah & Augusta

Outside Atlanta, KADAK's Georgia interest concentrates in two selective allocations: Savannah (a genuine port and logistics play) and Augusta (a medical, military, and cyber-anchored yield play). Neither is a metro we allocate to on narrative; both are markets where a disciplined basis and a real demand anchor can produce durable long-hold outcomes.

Market Brief

KADAK's View of the Savannah & Augusta Multifamily Market

Demand Drivers

Savannah is a real logistics market. The Port of Savannah is the largest single-terminal container facility in North America, and the Hyundai Metaplant America ($7.6B EV + battery complex) in Bryan County is the largest economic development project in Georgia history. That anchors a working-household and dual-income renter demand base across Pooler, Port Wentworth, Rincon, and Richmond Hill that has real staying power. We underwrite Savannah as a yield-plus-logistics allocation — not a coastal-lifestyle bet. Augusta is anchored by three genuinely durable demand engines: Fort Eisenhower (formerly Fort Gordon) and U.S. Army Cyber Command, the Augusta University academic-medical complex, and the growing cyber and defense-contractor cluster around the base. Columbia County (Evans / Martinez / Grovetown) is where the durable higher-income renter demand concentrates — top-decile schools, low crime, and defense / medical dual-income households. For 100+ unit Class A- and B+ product in Pooler, the Savannah port corridor, or Columbia County priced honestly at basis, KADAK is a live reviewer. Send packages — this is where Georgia yield discipline pays.

Renter Profile

Savannah & Augusta's renter cohort is the kind that pays rent, renews, and treats an apartment community like a home — durable household incomes, real employment ties, and retention economics that survive a cycle.

Supply and Concession Risk

Any pricing on Savannah & Augusta product is underwritten against current effective rents and the visible new-construction pipeline — not trailing pro forma growth. Concessions on recent lease-ups are modeled explicitly.

Tax, Insurance, and Operating Risk

Chatham, Bryan, Effingham, Richmond, and Columbia County assessment methodologies differ. We model reassessment to purchase price under county-specific methodology.

Acquisition Fit

Both Savannah and Augusta trade at meaningfully lower per-door basis than Atlanta for genuinely comparable product. That's not a discount for weakness — it reflects less institutional crowding and more grounded local ownership. Yield on well-located B+ product in Columbia County or Pooler is real, and it holds through cycles.

What KADAK Wants to See Before LOI

Agency executes cleanly in both markets. Life-co is more selective; live on top-quartile Class A in Pooler and Evans / Martinez. Assumable low-coupon debt is a real basis advantage where it exists.

Beyond the Public View

KADAK Multifamily does not rely on public web data alone for final acquisition decisions. Every deal that advances beyond initial screen requires the current rent roll, trailing-twelve financials, verified tax and insurance runs, third-party capex assessment, in-place debt documentation, submarket rent and sale comps, ownership and title verification, on-site property inspections, direct lender feedback, and formal investment committee review. Anything below is the acquisitions-team read that frames the conversation — not the underwrite.
