Why Building Multi-family Real Estate is Smart
Whether you have the expertise as a real estate developer or are a first-time real estate developer, multifamily housing will help you build wealth faster than you could otherwise. Building multifamily apartments sounds scary, however, it isn’t. Multi-family real estate property has a higher building cost compared to purchasing a single-family home. However, multi-family apartments generate a more steady cash flow compared to a single-family home, making it easier to finance a loan.
Benefits of Owning a Multi-family Unit Property
Streamlined Maintenance
Due to the nature of multi-family buildings, units are grouped together, resulting in significantly fewer maintenance costs per unit. Multi-family properties have the advantage of sharing many structural and management aspects such as walls, HVAC equipment, and landscaping services. Streamlining any construction, renovation, or maintenance projects that may occur over time will keep your property desirable and appealing to many customers.
Steady Cash Flow
Owning multi-family buildings provides a consistent source of passive income every month. With affordable housing rental costs, it’s easier to manage and fill multi-family living spaces over the traditional single-family living spaces. Resulting in higher average occupancy and revenue, multi-family buildings are a less risky property investment.
Tax Breaks
Multi-family rental properties such as apartments and assisted living communities are just like businesses to the IRS, allowing you to benefit from tax deductions and special housing tax benefits.
Market Ready Investment
By constructing multi-family buildings from the ground up, you have the opportunity to include attractive amenities and services from the start. This gives you an advantage over your competition that is only renovating older investment properties.
The History of Grove City, Ohio
Grove City, Ohio has a rich and vibrant history that dates back to the early 1800s. This community was founded by a group of adventurous pioneers who were determined to establish a new home in the uncharted wilderness of the American Midwest. These brave pioneers transformed the surrounding area by clearing the land and constructing their humble abodes, which ultimately led to the growth and expansion of the town. Grove City was still a relatively small hamlet in 1866 when it was officially incorporated. It’s city charter was amended in 1959 outlining the roles and responsibilities of the city’s elected officials and administrators. Despite the changes and developments that have taken place over the years, Grove City still exudes its welcoming small-town charm and fosters a strong sense of community.
One of the most remarkable moments in Grove City’s past came in 1912, when a tornado swept through the town and left destruction and chaos in its wake. The disaster, which was part of a larger outbreak of storms that struck the Midwest, left many of the community’s residents without homes or shelter. Despite the devastation and hardship, the people of Grove City banded together to rebuild their town and pave the way for a brighter future. Thanks to their tireless efforts, Grove City remains a thriving and dynamic community with a proud history and exciting prospects ahead.

Frequently Asked Questions
How long does a construction project usually take?
he duration of a construction project is tied to the scope of the project. A safe answer would be anywhere from 9 months to 4 years to complete construction.

- Condition and development of the land
What areas do we serve?
We have completed construction projects all over Ohio. Rockford Construction is located in greater Columbus, OH, but we build commercial housing projects anywhere in Ohio including Grove City.
Are multi-family construction projects fully customizable?
Yes. One of the advantages of building a multi-family construction project over purchasing a renovation project is it gives you the opportunity to pick the most up-to-date plans, furnishings, and amenities to attract the top tier renters and buyers.
What is some advice to consider when it comes to budget?
When working on a budget – prioritize, prioritize, prioritize! It is important to remember what is most important to you because it is easy to get wrapped up in the excitement and go over budget. Create a prioritized list of all the “must-have” features and amenities, then outline how much you are willing to pay for each. Value engineering will come into play when your budget becomes stretched.
Keep in mind the shifting cost of materials in the various markets in which you intend to build. The professional leadership, expert management team, and gifted designers and contractors at Rockford Construction are committed to seeing your project through from promising kickoff to successful completion.

What is multifamily construction?
Multifamily construction projects are as simple as they sound: it’s a dwelling with several tenantable units grouped together. Many residents can live in the same overlying structure, but each family has its own living space. Amenities include a bathroom, kitchen, common areas, and much more.. Many of these homes appear to be independent, separate houses, or apartments from the outside, which appeals to many residents and clients. All housing is built at complementary scales and in character to the surrounding neighborhood. Examples of multi family homes include one and two bedroom apartments, townhouses, condos, and duplexes.
How much does a multifamily construction project cost?
All construction projects have different costs. Below are some cost guidelines for multifamily construction buildings in and around Delaware.
Land Costs (10-20%)
Land costs are the first big expenses in multifamily construction. As one can imagine, purchasing land in rural areas is cheaper compared to urban, infill communities. Many factors come into play, and this development cost may include demolition and clearing.
Hard Costs (50-70%)
The hard development cost of multifamily construction includes the expenses for physically building the multifamily housing:materials, safety equipment and systems, labor costs, engineering services, as well as contractors’ and subcontractors’ bids.
Soft Costs (20-30%)
This construction cost covers the expenses that go into the work process behind the scenes, such as contracts and legal fees, city permit fees, city zoning, interior design, architects’ fees, and other similar expenditures needed to complete the project.
