Market Brief
KADAK's View of the Austin–San Antonio Corridor Multifamily Market
Demand Drivers
The I-35 corridor between Austin and San Antonio is knitting into a single functional labor market. Samsung's Taylor fab, Tesla's Giga Texas, Applied Materials, Dell, and the broader Austin tech base pull demand north; JBSA, USAA, Toyota Manufacturing Texas, Valero, and the Texas Medical Center's San Antonio footprint pull it south. What sits in between — Round Rock, Georgetown, Hutto, Pflugerville, Kyle, Buda, San Marcos, New Braunfels — is where the affordability and household formation math actually clears. The corridor renter is younger, more mobile, and more dual-income than the median Texas renter. School districts (Leander, Round Rock, Georgetown, Hays, Comal, New Braunfels) do heavy lifting on retention. Corporate relocations to Austin have pushed a meaningful share of renewal demand into the corridor as households price out of central Austin and near-north submarkets. The corridor absorbed record deliveries into 2024. Concessions are real in Kyle, Buda, and parts of San Marcos. That has re-based Class A rents in several nodes and, for KADAK, has opened basis opportunities on 2018–2022 vintage assets that were priced for a different rent environment. Reassessment risk varies by county along the corridor (Williamson, Travis, Hays, Comal, Guadalupe). We model reassessment at the county level, not statewide, and stress insurance premiums against the current market — not a stale renewal. Agency executes cleanly on Class A- corridor deals with strong operator resumes. Assumable low-coupon debt from 2020–2021 vintage originations is a real basis advantage where it exists, and we underwrite it explicitly. We're a natural buyer for well-located 100–400 unit Class A- and B+ corridor product when basis reflects the current supply reality. Brokers and owners with corridor stories should send them.
Renter Profile
Austin–San Antonio Corridor'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 Austin–San Antonio Corridor 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
Austin–San Antonio Corridor carries real reassessment, insurance-carrier, payroll, and utility exposure. KADAK re-runs every one of these to purchase price and current quote — never the seller's history.
Acquisition Fit
Austin–San Antonio Corridor deals that fit KADAK are well-located, defensible-basis, institutionally reportable communities where the business plan is honest — core-plus, light value-add, recap, assumable debt, or a genuine special situation with a clear path to long-hold economics.
What KADAK Wants to See Before LOI
Before an LOI on Austin–San Antonio Corridor, KADAK expects a complete OM, current rent roll, T-12, insurance-carrier quote, debt package, and time on-site. What we avoid: hero rent-growth pro formas, deferred-maintenance traps, weak submarket pockets, and any narrative that only works if the market keeps compressing.
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.
