租金涨不动、成本下不来：公寓业主净运营收入被挤压
KeyCrew 11月12日刊文指出，美国公寓业主正遭遇利润挤压：疫情后新建公寓大量入市、需求放缓，市场今年只容得下1%至2%的租金涨幅，而保险与水电等运营成本仍以两位数增长。
OpticWise 首席执行官 Bill Douglas 在文中表示，2021至2024年间，单套公寓保险成本上涨约55%。由于物业估值与净运营收入挂钩，利润收窄也影响出售与再融资价格。
Douglas 建议业主从水电、保险与入住率三处着手提效，先用能带来收入的改进为下一轮投入供血，而不是等待租金回升。
Rent Growth No Longer Covers Costs: Apartment Owners Face a Margin Squeeze
U.S. apartment owners are facing a margin squeeze, KeyCrew reported November 12: new supply and softer demand mean the market is only tolerating rent increases of 1% to 2% this year, while insurance and utility costs keep climbing by double digits.
Bill Douglas, CEO of OpticWise, said insurance costs per unit rose about 55% between 2021 and 2024. Because property values are tied to net operating income, thinner margins also affect sale and refinancing prices.
Industry voices advise owners to start with utilities, insurance and occupancy, the three areas most directly tied to net operating income.
