Why use price per unit instead of price per square foot?

Per-unit pricing normalizes across different unit sizes and configurations. A 200-unit complex at $100k/unit is directly comparable to a 50-unit complex regardless of unit mix.

How does unit count affect valuation?

Larger unit counts typically command lower price-per-unit due to economies of scale in management and maintenance. Fewer than 5 units may trade at premiums for ease of financing.

What drives price per unit in a market?

Replacement cost, cap rate compression, income levels, and supply constraints. In tight markets, price per unit may exceed replacement cost.
