 You're Invited: Future of Small Multifamily, Making it Pencil on Urban Infill Sites

 
Greetings from the Cedar team!

Over 200 developers and folks from the infill community joined us for our last small-multifamily event, where we covered how landmark housing reforms in Texas are unlocking a whole new catalog of infill development opportunities.

These projects are faster to permit, more cost effective to build, and perfectly aligned with the next generation of housing demand. It’s the future of urban infill, and it’s being built today.

But since that event, we’ve continued to get the same question...
 
 
...“how do I actually get these projects to pencil?”
 
 
While we can’t necessarily help with financial modeling, we can help you understand the complex equation of entitlement scenarios, design options, and construction tradeoffs that make infill projects successful.

On June 25th, we'll cover the key unlocks that make residential and small-multifamily projects work on tight, complex urban infill sites.

We hope you’ll join us!
 
 
 
 
 
Expect to learn:
 
  • Zoning. Best infill opportunities for single-stair (and small multifamily)
 
  • Yield. How density & code compliance impact multifamily configurations
 
  • Construction Costs. Optimizing construction types with density and costs
 
  • Execution. Techniques to minimize risk & maximize project quality
 
  • Unlocking Potential. Competitive advantages in finding & analyzing sites
 
  • Partnership. Working with Cedar to underwrite, design, & permit small multifamily
 
 
 
Underwriting infill housing potential, faster
 
We’ll explore a unique approach that helps you understand the full range of compliant development paths.
 
 
Backed by the same architectural intelligence responsible for designing and permitting built projects.
 
 
Proven on the most complex infill projects
 
Awkward site geometries, overlapping and conflicting overlays, sites thought too challenging to develop...
 
 
Cedar has designed and permitted small multifamily on all of them, and we’ll compare notes.
 
 
Right-sizing projects for your market
 
Every infill market has a sweet spot for aligning unit sizing and density with where the math actually works, and most projects seem to miss it.
 
 
On June 25th, we'll show you how we think about that zone, by neighborhood, by zoning, by product, and by site.

Per TheATX1 (@The ATX) on Twitter: Here are the Future Development Plans for West 6th and Lamar in Old West Austin, near Downtown, ATX.

 This is a massing of the 6th & Lamar (Waterloo Records site) residential project based on the Planning Commission approved zoning. The original plans before a compromise was reached with the local neighborhood association called for a building 31' and two or three floors taller.

Should you BUY a FLIPPED House? ATX Broker Associate GVM Tips, Insights.

 SHOULD YOU BUY a "FLIPPED" HOUSE?  Have you personally ever considered and wondered if you, yourself should BUY  a "flipped house." In my 15+ years of predominantly residential Central Austin brokerage practice and experience, here are my insights, opinions, suggestions and things to be cognizant of.  #1. Absolutely, for sure get a LICENSED INSPECTION on the flipped house! Not all flippers are the same. Just like in life there is a wide spectrum in regards to quality. Some flippers are flat out awful. They make very lipstick-like improvements, skip the expensive items such as the foundation, and plumbing and try to trick the consumer into paying more for a home, when the consumer shouldn't.  On the Flip Side (this joke was just too obvious) There are also excellent high-quality flippers whom selectively choose which homes they flip, and then they invest carefully and beautifully while genuinely  improving a home! Some of these hi-quality upper tier flippe...

Austin, Texas has a DOG PROBLEM.....

  Austin, Texas has a DOG problem (Letter I wrote and sent) Dear Austin City Council Members, Hello and well regards, Yesterday afternoon during a simple bicycle pedal exercise ride, I was physically chased by an unleashed Pitbull dog in ZILKER PARK. Then directly after recovering from almost being mauled by an unleashed pit-bull in Zilker Park, I attempted to buy a Gatorade at a nearby Barton Springs Road Market, but that didn't go well either, as an interior Market commercial customer had a massive mixed breed dog trolling through the diminutive shopping isles. Then this morning, at a Coffee shop on SoCo, there was only 1 entry way in and out, and there was another large, although more docile mixed breed dog. All of this has occurred in less than 24 hours. What's the point? The City of Austin's dog friendliness and citizen enabling of irresponsible dog owners has gotten out of control. Newsflash! Not everybody like dogs, being everywhere all the time. especially within ...
