All multifamily deals are not the same, they might show you high returns, but what does the projected SHINY numbers truly mean? Multifamily is one of the most popular asset classes in commercial real estate. Apartments are said to be one of the easiest product types to understand without the complexities of long-term leases that can come with office, retail, and industrial properties.
