Bridgeport presents an investor with the potential for near-term revenue growth as rents continue to climb due to relative affordability to lower Fairfield County Submarkets like Norwalk and Stamford. Many tenants choose to live in Bridgeport and commute down-county in light of rent spreads for similar quality rental options of $500/month or more. As these rents continue to grow in Norwalk and Stamford, Bridgeport will continue to draft off this pricing. Additionally, Bridgeport is a maturing market with a significant redevelopment downtown in the Main Street North Corridor, the creation of a new shopping and entertainment district at Steel Point Harbor with a New Bass Pro Shop, rumors of an MGM Casino, and plans to add a second Metro North train station on the city’s East Side Columbia Towers offers a flexible value add opportunity. A light renovation of the apartments to upgrade flooring, kitchen counters, and possible appliance replacement can yield significant rent bumps with limited investment. Additionally, a new owner should leverage the property’s immediate proximity to the hospital to draw nurses, residents, doctors, etc. Finally, the property features excess land and parking that can be utilized for a clubroom or amenities space, and its location on a corner may allow for a commercial pad site on the property.
