Denver renters may not like how the renting market did in the second quarter

Denver renters already know this, but they’ll still probably groan: Rent in the Denver metro area is up again. Average monthly rent  for the second quarter rose $36.98 to $1,419.74, hitting another rental high. Median rent rose $31.21 to $1,376.79, according to the Denver Metro Apartment Vacancy and Rent report from the University of Denver’s Daniels College of Business and Colorado Economic and Management Associates. But the big takeaway from this report, said its author, Ron Throupe, is that 4,348 apartments were filled in the quarter, outpacing the 2,152 new units added. Since January, 9,012 net units have been filled, making it a strong year so far. In comparison, 11,056 net units were absorbed in all of 2016. In layman’s terms: Demand is high — which, again, may make Denver renters groan . But on the bright side, Harvard Extension School real estate instructor Teo Nicolais said, high demand means you’re living in a desirable place. “Denver has been discovered, but we should (...

Why AvalonBay Is Not In My 'DAVOS' Portfolio - AvalonBay Communities, Inc. (NYSE:AVB)

Image
I just finished my all-new DAVOS portfolio that includes the following best-in-class REITs: Digital Realty (DLR), American Tower (AMT), Ventas, Inc. (VTR), Realty Income (O), and Simon Property Group (SPG). As a reminder, the DAVOS REITs were picked because of their high-quality attributes and most importantly for their dividend repeatability. While these REITs do not represent all of my favorite picks, they embody a diversified basket that serve as a proxy for robust dividend growth in the REIT sector. I’ll be honest, the last pick was the hardest. It was easy for me to select DLR, VTR, O, and SPG – because these four REITs have scale, experience, and muscle – all essential elements of durability. However, I was torn between the last pick, debating most of my Saturday as to whether I would go with American Tower or AvalonBay (AVB). I was really leaning to go with AvalonBay, but I decided at the last minute to include American Tower . It was a tough call, but after reading this ar...
