Our Signature · Multifamily
Multifamily is where The Flynn Group built its name. For more than 30 years we have valued apartment properties of every size, age and class, from a five-unit building in Long Beach to institutional communities. National lenders, institutional investors and private families turn to us for one reason: we see past the rent roll to the real economics of a building, and deliver a value that stands up to scrutiny.
Behind every assignment is our extensive database of apartment sales, rents and operating data, built over decades of high-volume work. It gives our clients an unparalleled view of the market.
Small-balance buildings, garden communities, mid-rise and high-rise, new construction and value-add.
Deep command of California's statewide rent cap and local ordinances, and how each one changes value.
Rent rolls, expenses and market rents examined line by line, so the value holds up with lenders, courts and the IRS.
Sought out by national lenders and private clients for our multifamily insight and experience.
Estate Planning Appraisals
When a family's legacy depends on the number, experience matters. We help families, trustees and their advisors with defensible, IRS-ready valuations of commercial and multifamily holdings.
