Neighborhood occupancy trends point to steady renter demand and pricing resilience, according to WDSuite’s CRE market data, with elevated ownership costs supporting retention in this suburban pocket of the Sacramento-Roseville-Folsom metro.
This B+ suburban neighborhood ranks 187 out of 561 in the Sacramento-Roseville-Folsom metro, making it competitive among metro neighborhoods for multifamily, based on CRE market data from WDSuite. The area’s occupancy runs strong relative to national patterns, and renter demand is supported by a high-cost ownership market (home values and value-to-income sit in higher national percentiles), which typically sustains reliance on rentals and helps stabilize lease-up and renewals.
Amenities are moderate but sufficient for daily needs: grocery and pharmacy access track near the national middle, while cafes land around the 70th percentile nationally. Average school ratings trend above national norms (around the 73rd percentile), which can enhance family-oriented renter retention. Park access is limited, so investors should underwrite lifestyle features on site or nearby trail access as potential differentiators.
Tenure patterns indicate a modest renter concentration (about three in ten housing units are renter-occupied), implying a somewhat thinner—but potentially more stable—tenant base. Rent-to-income levels align closer to national mid-range, suggesting manageable affordability pressure that can support renewals with thoughtful lease management.
Within a 3-mile radius, population has grown in recent years and households have expanded meaningfully, with WDSuite projecting additional population growth and a larger household base over the next five years. This points to a larger tenant pool over time, even as rent growth in the immediate area is expected to moderate—factors investors can translate into measured absorption and occupancy stability rather than outsized rent spikes.
The property’s 1986 vintage is newer than the neighborhood’s average construction year (1962). That relative youth can be competitive versus older stock, though investors should plan for age-related system updates and targeted renovations to maintain positioning.
Comparable crime rankings for this neighborhood are not available in WDSuite’s dataset at the time of publication. Investors should benchmark safety using multiple sources and trend views (city and county reports, insurer data) and consider property-level measures that align with resident expectations for suburban assets in the Sacramento-Roseville-Folsom region.
Commuter access to regional employers helps underpin workforce renter demand, notably in technology, distribution, and healthcare services listed below.
- Intel Folsom FM5 — semiconductors (18.5 miles)
- DISH Network Distribution Center — logistics & distribution (32.5 miles)
- Cardinal Health — medical supply & logistics (34.9 miles)
- International Paper — packaging & paper products (39.4 miles)
- Xerox State Healthcare — healthcare services administration (40.0 miles)
2821 Mallard Ln offers a 30-unit, 1986-vintage profile that competes well against an older local housing stock. The surrounding neighborhood ranks competitively among 561 metro neighborhoods and shows solid occupancy with renter demand reinforced by a high-cost ownership landscape. Within a 3-mile radius, both population and households have been expanding and are projected to continue growing, which supports a larger tenant base and occupancy stability over the long term, according to CRE market data from WDSuite.
Investor focus should be on durable occupancy and smart value-add. Given the asset’s age, targeted system upgrades and interior refreshes can enhance competitiveness versus older product while maintaining affordability discipline as rents in the area are expected to moderate. A modest renter concentration suggests prudent lease management and marketing to broaden the tenant pipeline, while proximity to regional employers supports demand depth.
- Competitive suburban location with strong occupancy and high ownership costs that reinforce rental demand
- 1986 vintage offers value-add potential through selective renovations and system updates
- Expanding 3-mile population and household base supports a growing renter pool and leasing stability
- Regional employer access underpins workforce housing demand and renewals
- Risks: modest renter concentration and projected rent moderation call for disciplined underwriting and retention strategies
