Rental Housing Studies

At S. Patz & Associates, we conduct both preliminary and comprehensive market feasibility analyses tailored to meet the needs of lenders, syndicators, public agencies, and developers. We specialize in evaluating market support and offering clear, expert opinions on project viability.

 

Our commitment is to deliver accurate, insightful market research across a broad spectrum of rental housing types, from affordable units—including Low-Income Housing Tax Credit (LIHTC) properties—to upscale apartments. As an approved market study analyst for multiple state housing agencies and a trusted partner to national tax credit syndicators, we bring credibility and deep insight to the affordable housing market.

Our feasibility analyses are used for internal planning and formal submissions to lenders, such as financial institutions or HUD, including those adhering to HUD’s Multifamily Accelerated Processing (MAP) guidelines.
