Market Perspective

KADAK's View of the Phoenix Multifamily Market

Demand drivers

Phoenix is a long-term growth market. We target newer-vintage Class A and select Class B in established submarkets with strong school and employment access, underwriting through current supply absorption. The demand backdrop in Phoenix is anchored by real employment nodes, sustained household formation, and in-migration patterns that continue to support long-term multifamily absorption.

  • Major semiconductor fab investment from TSMC and Intel
  • Logistics and data center buildout across the West Valley
  • Sustained domestic in-migration and household formation
  • Newer institutional-quality multifamily supply

Renter profile

The Phoenix renter cohort skews toward employed professionals, dual-income households, and relocation-driven demand tied to the metro's core employers. Institutional-quality Class A- and B+ communities in strong school and employment nodes continue to command pricing power at renewal.

Supply pressure

Deliveries in Phoenix have run above trend in select submarkets during the last cycle. KADAK's underwriting reflects a realistic view of concessions, lease-up burn-off, and stabilized rent growth — not a hope-based reversion. Where new supply has already re-based Class A rents, well-located B+ product often benefits.

Insurance & tax

Insurance premiums and property tax reassessment are underwritten line-by-line in Phoenix, not borrowed from the T-12. We stress payroll, R&M, insurance, and controllable expense growth against a real operating benchmark before quoting.

Financing

We finance Phoenix acquisitions with disciplined leverage — a mix of agency, life-co, and select bank debt — with structure sized to survive a rate-and-cap-rate shock. Assumable debt at an attractive coupon is a real advantage, and we underwrite it as such.

KADAK's disciplined underwriting posture

Basis, debt, capex, and exit liquidity have to work together — not just the pro forma. KADAK will pass on Phoenix deals where the story requires perfect execution, and will engage decisively where basis, submarket fundamentals, and structure line up.
