Case Study

65% NOI increase over Long Term

In 2022, a metro-area MFH real estate investment group converted a six-unit building from long-term to short-term rentals. After a year, they yielded annual net profits that went from $150k to $247k; a 65% increase.

This is the group’s third STR project and it led to value beyond revenue such as lease-up speed and increased building valuation. Projects and applications for STR include commercial conversion, condo conversion, purpose-built projects, and acquisitions.

Case Study Continued

Our Solution: Thoughtful Management and a Re-imagined Listing

After a short discussion with the owner, the Dewl team reviewed the property with a simple question: where can we infuse this property with love? We presented our plan and a quote for a master lease, signed it on March 1, and the rest is history.15 days and $15,000 later, the property was refurnished, redecorated, and totally reimagined. More importantly, it was ready to rent out. In the final two weeks of March, the property rented and generated 90% of our ideal monthly lease rate. In the second month, we garnered over 200% of the monthly lease.The property began to see return on investment (ROI) within six months, with an internal rate of return (IRR) of a staggering 194%.

And we were just getting started.
