Tariffs & Multifamily Real Estate: How Roers Companies is Prepared

Predetermined Project Costs

When investing with Roers Cos., investors benefit from our meticulous upfront budgeting and strategic sourcing practices within both our development and construction teams, which can help significantly mitigate the potential impact of tariffs. Project costs for our current investment opportunities are carefully projected and budgeted, with material pricing terms contracted for in for all projects currently under construction. Our construction contracts also place primary responsibility for future material or procurement price fluctuations firmly on our trade partners. Moreover, the majority of our materials are domestically sourced, and any imported materials primarily come from Canada and Mexico, further shielding investors from tariff-related volatility. Our active fundraising projects include:

Future Tariff Impact

Favorable labor market conditions further mitigate potential workforce shortages, positioning Roers Cos. to effectively manage current market conditions.
