Investment Solutions For Multifamily Properties

OVERVIEW

Macallan Capital Partners provides comprehensive investment banking and advisory services for multifamily projects. Our team brings decades of experience in structuring capital solutions tailored to the unique requirements of this asset class.

Whether you are seeking debt financing, equity partnerships, or strategic advisory, we leverage our deep industry relationships and market expertise to deliver optimal outcomes for our clients.

Market Opportunity

The U.S. multifamily market represents one of the most resilient and sought-after sectors in commercial real estate. With continued urbanization, shifting demographics, and a persistent housing supply shortage, demand for quality apartment communities continues to outpace new construction across most major markets.

Institutional and private investors alike are drawn to multifamily for its combination of steady cash flow, inflation hedging through rent escalation, and favorable risk-adjusted returns relative to other property types. The sector has historically demonstrated lower volatility and faster recovery during economic downturns compared to office, retail, and hospitality assets.

Asset Profiles We Serve

Garden-Style Communities

Low-rise, suburban apartment complexes typically ranging from 100 to 500+ units. These properties benefit from lower per-unit construction costs, strong suburban migration trends, and appeal to families and workforce renters seeking space and affordability.

Mid- & High-Rise Developments

Urban and infill apartment towers in primary and secondary markets. These assets command premium rents driven by location, walkability, and amenity packages, and are well-positioned for value-add and luxury repositioning strategies.

Affordable & Workforce Housing

LIHTC-eligible and naturally occurring affordable housing (NOAH) communities. These properties offer compelling returns through tax credit monetization, mission-driven capital partnerships, and resilient occupancy through economic cycles.

Student & Senior Living

Purpose-built student housing near major universities and age-restricted senior communities. Both sub-sectors benefit from demographic tailwinds and specialized management approaches that create barriers to entry for generalist operators.

Typical Deal Structure

Macallan Capital Partners structures capital solutions tailored to each project's risk profile, timeline, and sponsor objectives. Our multifamily engagements typically involve layered capital stacks designed to optimize leverage while maintaining attractive equity returns.

Debt Placement

  • Agency lending (Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac, FHA/HUD)
  • CMBS and balance sheet bridge loans
  • Construction and mini-perm financing
  • Mezzanine debt and preferred equity

Equity & Joint Ventures

  • Institutional LP equity sourcing
  • GP co-invest and promote structuring
  • Programmatic joint venture partnerships
  • 1031 exchange and tax-advantaged structures

Deal sizes typically range from $10 million to $500 million+, with Macallan acting as exclusive financial advisor throughout the capital raise process. Our relationships with over 200 active capital sources ensure competitive terms and rapid execution for our clients.

The Macallan Approach

  • Rigorous Underwriting

    We begin every engagement with a deep-dive analysis of market fundamentals, comparable transactions, rent growth trajectories, and operating expense benchmarks to build a defensible investment thesis that resonates with institutional capital sources.

  • Relationship-Driven Capital Access

    Our principals have cultivated relationships with banks, insurance companies, pension funds, family offices, and specialized multifamily lenders over four decades. This network allows us to source terms and structures that are often unavailable through conventional channels.

  • Execution Speed & Certainty

    From engagement to closing, our streamlined process, combined with pre-established lender relationships, delivers faster timelines and higher certainty of execution — critical advantages in competitive bidding situations and time-sensitive transactions.

  • Full-Lifecycle Advisory

    Beyond capital placement, we advise on acquisition strategy, development feasibility, value-add business plans, recapitalizations, and disposition timing — serving as a strategic partner throughout the entire investment lifecycle.
