Offers investors geographic diversification and thoughtfully executed projects amidst sustained resident demand for attainably priced rental housing

Continental Properties, a leading national developer, owner, and operator of middle-income suburban rental housing, today announced the launch of Real Estate Development Fund IV, L.P. (“Fund IV”), which will develop market rate suburban multifamily communities in undersupplied housing markets across the U.S.

According to RealPage Market Analytics, an industry-leading strategic business advisory firm, multifamily starts continue to decrease nationally while demand has seen a historic rebound following a brief lull in 2023. Continued housing shortages, record high for-sale housing prices, and affordability constraints have created a dynamic that will drive strong demand and compelling investment metrics for attainably priced rental housing over the next several years. Fund IV will target well located suburban sites in undersupplied housing markets across the Southeast, Midwest and Mountain states, including Florida, Georgia, Tennessee, Illinois, Michigan, Minnesota and Colorado, among others.

“The launch of Fund IV is a testament to Continental’s ongoing commitment to developing attainable housing communities in markets supported by compelling demographic and economic fundamentals such as long-term population and job growth,” stated Jim Schloemer, Chief Executive Officer of Continental Properties and Chair of the National Multifamily Housing Council, a prominent industry trade organization. “The gap between supply and demand in these markets continues to widen while new development often overlooks middle-income families, creating significant unmet demand. The housing we develop is purpose-built to serve this demographic’s massive need for new housing. We believe our longstanding track record of delivering, operating, and managing high-quality communities and creating superior resident experiences will continue to generate attractive risk-adjusted returns to investors.”

The launch of Fund IV reflects the growth of Continental’s vertically integrated platform and national footprint, which to date has delivered outsized returns for investors. The firm’s standardized brands and cost-predictable model drive construction efficiency and create a significant competitive advantage. This has become an especially important differentiator and risk mitigant in the current market environment, where already high construction costs continue to rise, making it more difficult to break ground on new developments. Additionally, Continental takes the financial risk of pre-construction off the table for investors, with its funds only allocating capital to assets that are entitled and shovel ready.

Continental offers three signature rental housing brands, including Springs Apartments, premium low-density communities featuring primarily direct-access homes and resort-style amenities; Authentix Apartments, value-oriented garden-style communities with modern finishes, quality amenities, and attentive on-site service; and Avanterra Homes, professionally managed single-family rental neighborhoods with private yards, open-concept layouts, shared amenities, and maintenance-free living.
