multifamily acquisition Class B multifamily Antelope Woods in Sacramento was recently acquired.

SACRAMENTO—A primary driver for multifamily investment, especially on the part of Ridge Capital Investors, is the healthy Sacramento housing dynamic, which has positioned the region as a top-tier rental growth market during the last five years. Much of this performance is a result of strong job growth fundamentals coupled with very low delivery of new housing inventory during this cycle.

According to commercial real estate research firm, Yardi Matrix, year-over-year rental growth in 2017 exceeded 7% and the immediate neighborhoods are expected to achieve high single-digit rent growth in 2018 as well. Unemployment in the region has fallen to below 4%, led in part by private sector growth in healthcare and technology.
