Amherst Residential Wholesale SFR Transaction - Tampa

United States

Deal value: $9,600,000

Amherst Residential purchased a block of 30 single-family homes from a local wholesaler in Tampa, FL, for immediate rental conversion.

The core investment motivation is to capitalize on the persistent demand for single-family rentals (SFR) in high-growth markets like Tampa, driven by affordability challenges in homeownership, population growth, and a shortage of new housing supply. Amherst seeks to quickly scale its rental portfolio by acquiring homes in bulk from wholesalers, enabling immediate rental conversion and cash flow generation. The strategic purpose is to secure yield, hedge against inflation, and leverage operational efficiencies in a sector with resilient fundamentals.
