Are you struggling with a distressed multi-family property that’s draining your profits? If your asset is plagued by high vacancy rates, deferred maintenance, or mismanagement, you’re not alone. Many multi-family owners face these challenges—but there’s a solution.
At Ligon Multi-Family we help property owners transform distressed assets into high-performing investments that generate higher NOI (Net Operating Income), attract quality tenants, and maximize ROI.
🕵️ Recognizing the Signs of a Distressed Multi-Family Property
If your multi-family property is showing any of these signs, it’s time to take action:
✅ High Vacancy Rates: Are you struggling to keep units occupied? A high vacancy rate is a clear indicator that the property is not meeting market expectations.
✅ Deferred Maintenance: Properties with outdated amenities, worn-out interiors, and neglected systems often push potential tenants away, reducing the property's overall value.
✅ Poor Property Management: Inefficient property management leads to inconsistent tenant screening, low retention rates, and rent collection issues.
✅ Low Cash Flow & ROI: If your property is barely breaking even or running at a loss, you need a game plan to reverse the downward spiral.
