3200 Daniel McCall Dr, Lufkin TX Multifamily Investment
Renter demand is supported by a high renter concentration in the surrounding neighborhood and a high-cost ownership landscape relative to incomes, according to WDSuite’s CRE market data. Occupancy in the neighborhood trails national norms, so leasing strategy and asset positioning will matter for stability.
This Inner Suburb neighborhood in Lufkin ranks 2 out of 41 metro neighborhoods overall (A+ rating), placing it competitive among Lufkin neighborhoods. Grocery access is a local strength (ranked 2 of 41), with cafes and restaurants also comparatively dense for the metro. Park and pharmacy access are limited (both ranked 41 of 41), which may modestly affect livability perceptions for some renter cohorts.
For multifamily investors, tenure dynamics are favorable: an estimated 62.6% of housing units in the neighborhood are renter-occupied (ranked 1 of 41; top quartile nationally by percentile). This indicates a deep tenant base and supports demand for professionally managed apartments. However, neighborhood occupancy is below national medians, so competitive finishes, targeted marketing, and operational focus are important to maintain lease-up velocity and renewals.
Ownership costs are elevated relative to local incomes (value-to-income ratio in the 80th national percentile), which tends to reinforce reliance on rental housing and can support pricing power when product is well-positioned. Median contract rents are mid-market for the neighborhood, and rent-to-income metrics suggest relatively manageable affordability pressure in this area, supporting retention and reducing turnover risk.
Within a 3-mile radius, demographics indicate a recently flat-to-soft backdrop but projections point to population and household growth by the next five-year window, implying a larger tenant base over time. The average construction year in the neighborhood is 1992; this property’s 1979 vintage is older, creating a potential value-add path via targeted renovations and system upgrades to compete against newer stock.
Neighborhood-level crime data for this area is not available in the current WDSuite release. Investors typically benchmark safety using multiple sources, including recent local reports, property-level incident logs, and discussions with nearby operators, to understand trends at the micro-area level.
Practical risk management often includes lighting, access control, and community engagement, calibrated to actual conditions observed during on-site diligence rather than assumptions from broader regional narratives.
The investment case centers on a deep renter pool, an ownership market that is high-cost relative to incomes, and the potential to reposition a 1979-vintage, 80-unit asset against a neighborhood where the average construction year is 1992. While neighborhood occupancy trails national norms, the renter-occupied share is high and local amenities (notably grocery access) support daily convenience—factors that can underpin leasing when operations and finish levels are competitive.
According to CRE market data from WDSuite, rent-to-income levels in the area point to manageable affordability pressure, supporting renewal capture when paired with disciplined rent setting. Forward-looking 3-mile demographic projections indicate growth in population and households, suggesting gradual expansion of the tenant base and improving demand depth over the medium term.
- High renter concentration indicates demand depth and supports occupancy potential
- 1979 vintage offers value-add and CapEx-driven competitiveness versus newer neighborhood stock
- Elevated ownership costs relative to income bolster reliance on rentals and pricing power
- 3-mile forecasts point to population and household growth, expanding the renter pool
- Risk: neighborhood occupancy lags national levels—execution on renovations and leasing is critical
