Historic $10 billion purchase of AIR Communities by Blackstone is not only a deal but is a proactive response to the prevailing market changes and a bid to take advantage of the altering demographics.
The sectional rental market has been a key point for Blackstone and the corporation is trying to secure itself in anticipation of the increasing need for up-to-date rental properties.
The premium of roughly 25% over the Friday closing of the AIR Communities share price implies that Blackstone significantly believes in the acquisition underlying value. This premium serves to not only boost the present shareholders but also incorporates Blackstone’s vision of a profitable future of AIR Communities’ assets.
Moreover, the investment of $400 million towards the improvement of AIR Communities’ existing asset, as stated above, establishes Blackstone’s faith and certainty in the increase of the property quality and appeal. Blackstone will exploit the unstable position of markets with strong multifamily fundamentals, primarily in the coastal areas where the areas growing at a steady tempo and profitability are found.
Firstly, Tricon’s recent takeover deal of Tricon Residential is a clear representation of its quest to diversify its footprint in the rental housing domain. With a multifaceted real estate portfolio that includes rental housing units, Blackstone is evidently striving for ensuring the long-term value and risk agency through smart diversification of its asset.
AIR Communities’ investment in the rental housing sector means not just a risk, but it is also a strategic plan of Blackstone on the future of the rental housing market. Combining financial resources, strategic forecasting, and domain knowledge, Blackstone clearly has the capacity to tackle the challenges of the real estate market and grow to become a strong player in the rental housing industry, for the foreseeable future.
