Appreciate Launches Operations in Memphis Market
Leading Single-Family Rental Marketplace and Management Platform Continues Strategic Expansion Across United States
MINNETONKA, Minn., Jan. 10, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Appreciate Holdings, Inc. (“Appreciate” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: SFR), the parent holding company of Renters Warehouse (“Renters Warehouse”), a leading end-to-end Single-Family Rental (“SFR”) marketplace and management platform, today announced the Company’s expansion into the Memphis, Tennessee market.
Appreciate’s entrance into the Memphis market follows the strategic plan of the Company to support its clients with operations in lucrative geographic locations across the country. Appreciate launched the market with one of the Company’s institutional clients, as investors remain focused on the higher yielding southeastern markets. Similar to other newly launched Company markets, Memphis offers an attractive entry point with more than 25% of one to four unit properties renter-occupied1.
“Increasing housing affordability issues resulting from rising mortgage rates have created a strong backdrop for the SFR asset class and its investors,” said Appreciate President Kevin Ortner. “As Appreciate continues its expansion as a publicly-traded company, it is our goal to support investors, whether large or small, through our end-to-end solution that allows them to buy, lease, manage and sell SFR all in one place.”
As a leader in the SFR space, Appreciate utilizes its deep industry knowledge coupled with proprietary data gathered from executing thousands of marketplace transactions through the Company’s end-to-end technology platform to provide its clients with an unmatched slate of services for Memphis.
