The multifamily industry serves millions of people annually and is on track to continue its growth thanks to two major demographics:  Millennials, who are delaying the purchase of their first home, and Baby Boomers, who are downsizing.  As new multifamily properties pop up across the country to service the growing need, existing properties are faced with the challenge of competing with their newer, more updated counterparts.

Renovating an existing multifamily unit is no small task. There are many pieces to the puzzle that require consideration including your target demographic, trends in your area, current Net Operating Income and the availability of capital to make the improvements and expected Return on Investments for each renovation project.  Multifamilyexecutive.com outlines 6 Steps to Successful Multifamily property renovations and why it pays off.

Our design team at Custom Closets and Cabinets can help you make the important choices on countertops, backsplashes, and flooring.  We are a one stop shop for multi-family owners and managers looking to improve their properties.

When identifying a renovation strategy, the ultimate goal should include increased rents, increased demand, and longer, lower turnover.  Individual unit renovations to kitchens, baths and flooring heavily contribute to your ability to fetch higher rents.   Other property renovations that increase curb appeal and separate you from the competition include clubhouse improvements, fitness centers, pet friendly amenities, and technology.  These types of improvements help increase demand, as well as tenant satisfaction, which results in lower turnover.

Custom Closets and Cabinets partners with multifamily owners to help identify the most impactful renovation plan and to provide quality materials at an affordable price.  A great option for many multifamily renovations is the use of Thermofoil cabinet doors to update kitchens and baths.  Thermofoil, also known as 3D Laminate, is available in hundreds of colors.     We also offer a variety of door styles to meet the needs of different projects.  Thermofoil cabinets provide one of the most cost effective solutions to create a modern look in multifamily units, which ultimately helps to increase demand and retention.
