Duggal Real Estate Advisors completed a market study for apartment units at Renn Quarter, a large master-planned community in Frederick, Maryland.

Apartment Market Study and Housing Needs Analysis

Fairfax, Virginia

Duggal Real Estate Advisors was hired by a large health care organization to understand the opportunity and need for rental apartments on a large redevelopment site. One of the exciting parts of this project was the potential for it to become an innovation district, and to understand the role of housing in creating thriving mixed-use projects.

Apartment Positioning Analyses

Annandale & Fairfax, Virginia

We completed two positioning analyses for existing apartment projects in Annandale and Fairfax, Virginia. The analyses consisted of visiting and evaluating the subject properties as well as the competitors. We evaluated location, amenities, level of finish, among other items to suggest modifications to rental rates and overall positioning of the projects.

Apartment Market Study

Glenmont, Maryland

We determined the market support for the first phase of 250 multifamily apartments at the subject site near the Glenmont Metro Station. We provided recommendations on pricing (rents), product mix, unit size, timing, market audience, amenities, and absorption for the first phase of apartments. One of the unique aspects of this study was to determine how to best differentiate the project from the competition, in particular determining amenities and other features that could set the project apart. Finding creative and unique amenities that are not currently in the market was a primary consideration.

Senior Housing Market Study

Urbana, Maryland

Duggal Real Estate Advisors, LLC completed a market study for active senior apartments in Urbana, Maryland. The project involved analyzing demographic trends, researching competitive projects, projecting demand for the project, and providing recommendations.

One of the interesting themes we explored in this project is the trend towards active adult rental product. While active adult for-sale product has been mainstream for quite some time, the concept of active adult rental has been harder to develop, perhaps due to the hesitancy of older adults to rent until they are needing some type of care. This product provides an active lifestyle without any of the care associated with independent living or assisted living. As more Boomers age, we expect this product type will get more popular.
