4900 Bottlebrush Ln Orlando Multifamily Investment
Neighborhood occupancy trends run above the metro median, supporting renter demand and steadier cash flow potential, according to WDSuite’s CRE market data.
Situated in Orlando’s Urban Core, the property sits within a renter-driven neighborhood where roughly two-thirds of housing units are renter-occupied. For investors, that renter concentration indicates a deeper tenant base and steadier leasing, and neighborhood occupancy performs above the metro median among 465 tracked neighborhoods, based on WDSuite.
The 1985 vintage is slightly newer than the neighborhood’s average construction year, which can support competitive positioning versus older stock. Investors should still plan for selective system updates or modernization to meet current renter expectations and capture value-add upside.
Within a 3-mile radius, recent years show population growth alongside rising household counts, broadening the potential renter pool. Looking ahead, projections point to an increase in households even as average household size trends lower, a pattern that can sustain demand for rental units and support occupancy stability.
Amenity density inside the immediate neighborhood is limited (few cafes, groceries, parks, or restaurants), so residents often rely on surrounding corridors for daily needs. School ratings trend below national averages, which some owners weigh in marketing and leasing strategies. On costs, a high-cost ownership landscape for the neighborhood tends to reinforce reliance on multifamily rentals, while rent-to-income levels suggest some affordability pressure—making renewal management and pricing discipline important for investor underwriting.
Safety indicators are mixed in comparison terms. The neighborhood rates weaker than the metro median for crime among 465 Orlando-area neighborhoods, while its national standing is closer to average. Investors typically underwrite for pragmatic measures such as lighting, access control, and coordination with local patrols to support resident confidence.
Directionally, recent year-over-year declines in both property and violent offenses are favorable and compare well to many neighborhoods nationwide, according to data from WDSuite. Sustaining these improvements can aid leasing and retention, but operators should continue proactive safety management.
Nearby corporate offices provide a diversified employment base that supports workforce housing demand and commute convenience for renters, including Prudential, Ryder, Darden Restaurants, Symantec, and Airgas Specialty Products.

This 22-unit, 1985-vintage asset is positioned in a renter-heavy Orlando neighborhood where occupancy trends run above the metro median, supporting leasing stability relative to many peer areas. A high-cost ownership landscape at the neighborhood level tends to sustain reliance on rentals, while the 3-mile radius shows growth in households and a larger tenant base over recent years. Based on commercial real estate analysis from WDSuite, current positioning favors workforce-oriented demand with moderate pricing power if managed thoughtfully.
The property’s slightly newer vintage than the neighborhood average can be an advantage versus older stock, with selective upgrades offering value-add potential. Forward projections indicate more—but smaller—households in the area, which supports ongoing multifamily demand even if population growth moderates; investors should balance this with measured expectations around amenity-light surroundings and careful rent-to-income monitoring to support retention.
- Renter-heavy neighborhood and above-metro occupancy support demand depth and leasing stability.
- 1985 vintage offers competitive positioning with targeted renovation/value-add upside.
- 3-mile radius shows household growth and an expanding renter pool backing long-term absorption.
- Nearby corporate offices contribute to diversified employment and commute convenience for tenants.
- Risk: Amenity-light surroundings and affordability pressure call for disciplined pricing and renewal strategies.
