Q1_2020_Multifamily_Header_Image_1536x1040
Sacramento’s apartment market got off to a strong start in 2020. Sales volume of $228.6 million suggests buyer interest in this strong market, where occupancy rates are staying north of 96 percent and monthly rents are rising around 4% per year. The market average sale price per unit hit its second highest mark on record in Q1 2020, however, the COVID-19 pandemic has put future price growth in doubt. Since March 17, California has been on a statewide “stay at home” order as landlords become increasingly concerned about falling rent collections. That being said, Sacramento was the second-ranked metro in the nation for paid rent at 94.7 percent.

Aaron Frederick

Executive Vice President

Sacramento

As the strategic real estate partner to multifamily investors throughout the Greater Sacramento Area & Central Valley, I provide, educated market knowledge, dependable industry advice, and detailed property assessment. My role, first and foremost, is that of an advisor. The real estate transactions I facilitate are a by-product of that relationship. My clients and I have built relationships based upon their business and a deep understanding of their goals. Together, we determine where they are going with their assets by understanding where they are today. My clients are mom & pops looking for a long-term plan for retirement, partnerships, family operators wanting a secondary source of income, and REITs expanding into new markets. Every situation is unique therefore I’ve never adopted a cookie cutter assessment. Each acquisition, disposition, and exchange is more than simply trading property. My success is helping my clients create success in their business.

Whether we are facing deferred maintenance, distressed properties, neighborhood issues, or unforeseen problems in escrow, I pride myself on my ability to deal with the unknown and work through the challenge to find a resolution and overcome the unexpected.  My clients rely on my ability to look at each transaction from different perspectives and my open collaboration with the larger broker community. 

On a personal note, I am a husband, avid reader, and, in the past, provide oversight & operations to a local men’s rugby club. Sharing knowledge and mentorship is something that is very important to me. As such, I lead a personal development workshop for a group of New Generation professionals in my office. We have discussed topics such as personality types, Carnegie, and the Compound Effect.

Senior Vice President

Sacramento

Multifamily investors rely on my honest and educated advice to help them make proper business decisions. It is my duty to my client to stay up to date on current rental rates, occupancies, and trends of the many submarkets in the Greater Sacramento Area. By working with both institutional and local apartment owners, I can look at any deal from different perspectives. As a native Sacramentan, I have first-hand experience of the economic cycles that have impacted our market. I am passionate about helping Sacramento become a thriving community and I believe our business owners, small and large, are at the heart of that.  

I joined Colliers International in 2014 after spending a year specializing in apartment sales around the Central Valley. After making the transition to Colliers, I decided to remain focused on multifamily properties. I now specialize in representing investors and owners within Sacramento County and Northern California. Throughout my tenure in the business I have sharpened my expertise within the Sacramento submarket and continue to remain focused on multifamily investment opportunities for my clients. Leveraging my business finance and real estate experience adds value to my clients whether I am getting a property properly marketed and sold or underwriting potential investments.
