The Memphis real estate market is undergoing a noticeable come up. Since 2014, $19 billion has been invested in planned, underway or completed projects.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Whether it\u2019s a $1.1 billion development plan<\/a> for Downtown Memphis\u2019 Pinch District, a $3.8 million incentive<\/a> to redevelop a vacant Midtown property into apartments, a $280 million modernization project<\/a> for Methodist University Hospital in the Medical District, a project to transform the former American Snuff Co. Plant<\/a> into a mixed-use space in Uptown or planning to use millions of dollars to improve areas like New Chicago<\/a>, Memphis real estate is on the move.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Listed as one of the top cities<\/a> to which millennials are moving, Memphis is home to more than 200,000<\/a> millennials, some of whom are involved in the real estate market.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Why Invest?<\/strong><\/h4>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Brent Hooks, chief administrative officer at Allworld Project Management, said that investing can be an important wealth builder for millennials.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

\u201cThere are cash flow, tax, leverage and appreciation benefits that are generated through investing in real estate,\u201d Hooks said. \u201cThe commercial real estate market in Memphis is currently an open canvas, and due to recent activity, is picking up momentum. Other markets are more developed, which limits their level of further development. Memphis has competitive property values when compared to other markets. There are several underdeveloped pockets of transitioning areas. Major projects are on the horizon. Through the use of Memphis 3.0, the community is starting to develop a long-term vision. With major developments on the horizon such as South City, Union Row, One Beale, micro-projects will develop to connect larger developments.\u201d<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Casey Flannery, a senior associate at Cushman & Wakefield Commercial Advisors, said that opportunities and affordability make the market appealing.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

\u201cCompanies are willing to relocate and add jobs to the area, in addition to (the city\u2019s) more reasonable lease rates. For example, office rates in Atlanta are $34.00 per square foot, as opposed to our $18.00 per square foot rates,\u201d Flannery said. \u201cMemphis has a lot of opportunity for redevelopment and new development.\u201d<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Getting Involved<\/h4>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Hooks said that specificity is key in getting involved in real estate.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

\u201cThe real estate industry is very competitive, and it is not a get rich quick scheme,\u201d Hooks said. \u201cDetermine your specific strategy, and identify your risk threshold. Have a clear value-add proposition. Start small, work with experienced mentors and build a good understanding of the market. Evaluate as many properties as possible, and have a good knowledge of your calculations. Terms like CAP rate, Net Operating Income and cash flow should be well comprehended.\u201d<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Hooks also recommends connecting with organizations such as the Memphis Investors Group and the Urban Land Institute for training and resources.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Benjamin Orgel, an asset manager at Tower Ventures, said that being hands-on is important.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

\u201cIt\u2019s always good to have programs, but it\u2019s also important to have entrepreneurial-minded people who go out and try to improve for themselves,\u201d Orgel said. \u201cI think (it\u2019s about) getting your feet in the fire and surrounding yourself with the right people\u2026people who know what they\u2019re doing, and saying \u2018How can I get involved?\u2019 Surround yourself with people smarter than you.\u201d<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Reimagining and Rebuilding<\/h4>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

One area of development in the city has been the adaptive reuse of old buildings. Examples include the Crosstown Concourse–a former Sears facility transformed into a space for small businesses, nonprofits and Crosstown High–as well as the Rise Apartments, which were once an old Wonder Bread factory.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Orgel, who is involved in a project to transform the former American Snuff Co. Plant<\/a> into a mixed-use space, said that adaptive redevelopment sets the Memphis market apart.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

\u201cIf you go to some other cities, they tear down everything and build tall, steel skyscrapers,\u201d Orgel said. \u201cThere\u2019s nothing cooler to me than taking an historic building that\u2019s been there for a hundred plus years, or less, and making it a wonderful place for someone to live, work or play\u2026I think Memphis has done an amazing job with local investors here that, instead of tearing down, we take old buildings and convert them.\u201d<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

(Re)Shaping the City<\/strong><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Flannery said that commercial investing and development in Memphis can influence how people view the city and potential opportunities.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

\u201cWhen there are people who are investing in the city and putting money into redevelopment, it displays the confidence that others, and citizens, have in our community,\u201d Flannery said. \u201cThey (citizens and investors) are willing to support the city, initiatives and participate in events locally. It brings money to our city with more people living, working and spending money in the area.\u201d<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Orgel said that development can help arouse more interest in the city.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

\u201cIf more millennials get involved in real estate and investing, it makes you more passionate about the city, makes you think differently about the city and it makes you want to invest more and more to improve it,\u201d Orgel said. \u201cThe more people that are successful here, especially in real estate, improves everything in the city. Like anything in life, the more you put into it, the more you\u2019ll get out of it.\u201d<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Hooks said that development can increase Memphis pride.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

\u201cAs we move deeper into the digital age and smart cities rise, millennial involvement is needed in commercial development and investing,\u201d Hooks said. \u201cWe can bring fresh ideas that the generations before us may not have considered. Ideas like co-working spaces will mostly increase. The accessibility spurs an entrepreneurial interest because of the cost-effectiveness. Furthermore, We can shape the future of the city for our friends and family. This would also strengthen the sense of pride among our peer group. There is no better feeling than saying, \u2018Hey, my friend helped develop that site!\u2019\u201d<\/p>\r\n
