Portland as an apartment sales market – Demand for larger complexes, especially Class A urban seems to be hitting some limits with push-backs on offerings of larger complexes.  However, >100 unit sales have been driving transaction volume in 2010 and 2011 and the recovery of the market.

Another cloud on the horizon will be loan interest rates which may not increase immediately, but seem to have gotten as low as they can go.  An increase in interest rates will drive Cap Rates higher which will put pricing pressure on existing apartment stock.

REMEMBER – Whether you are selling or keeping your apartments, maximizing Net Operating Income (NOI) is paramount.
