Compelling Value-Add PotentialBuilt five years earlier on average than its beachfront competitors, this property currently offers a rental discount of 9% to 17% compared to its peers, depending on the unit type. This positions it perfectly for enhancements that could significantly increase its value. We estimate that new ownership could invest approximately $15,000 per unit for upgrades in the 102 ocean-view units, along with an additional $500,000 for improvements to common areas. This investment is projected to yield a 20% return and result in a 10% increase in current rental rates.
Outer Urban Advantage The Eliot on Ocean’s residents save an average of $1,469 per month in exchange for an 18-minute commute to Downtown Boston, and get to live on the beach.
Transit Oriented Location With just a short 5-minute walk to the MBTA station, The Eliot offers seamless access to Downtown Boston (18 min), Logan Airport (10 min) and key areas like Back Bay, the Seaport District and Kendall Square, placing over 100 million square feet of commercial space within easy reach.
Strong Tenant Base The Eliot’s appeal has drawn a robust tenant base. Currently, 41% of The Eliot’s units are occupied by tenants in the key renter age group (18-35), with an average household income of approximately $137K per year, resulting in a favorable 24% rent-to-income ratio, which is below the 30% industry standard.
100% Market Rate The Eliot stands out by offering 100% market-rate units, which is a rarity in Greater Boston. It is unlikely that another fully market-rate multifamily development will occur in Revere soon, as there is legislation that seeks to establish a minimum 20% affordability threshold for new developments in designated zones under the Housing Development Incentive Program.
Revere Beach Premium Situated on Revere Beach, The Eliot benefits from a significant rent premium, averaging 13% higher than surrounding municipalities, due to its desirable beachfront location.
