The Off-Market Advantage for Institutional Investors

Why Off-Market Matters

Hedge funds have long eyed single-family rentals (SFRs)—institutional ownership hit 5% of U.S. homes by 2024, per NAR, and 2025’s shaping up strong. But the MLS is a bottleneck: bidding wars inflate prices 5–10% (Redfin, 2024), and agent fees add $15K–$24K to a $400K deal. Off-market SFRs flip that script, and at Rigg Investment Group, we’re connecting hedge funds to these opportunities through wholesaler partnerships.

The Numbers Don’t Lie

Wholesaler deals dodge the open market—think $300K Jacksonville homes with $360K ARVs, $20K below MLS comps. No buyer agent fees save another $12K–$20K, and closings shrink to 7–14 days vs. 45+. That’s a 10–15% cost cut—$35K saved on a $350K home lifts cap rates from 7% to 8% at $2,200 rent. X chatter in 2025 shows funds grabbing $315K off-market deals while MLS peers pay $350K—scale that to 10 homes, and it’s $350K in savings.

2025 Timing

Rising rates (5.5–6% projected, Fed estimates) favor cash-rich funds, and distress is ticking up—10% more foreclosures (X, Feb 2025)—flooding wholesalers with high-yield options. Our wholesaler network targets Sunbelt markets—Raleigh, Tucson—where 7–8% caps thrive. Hedge funds can turn $1M into 3–4 homes off-market, not 3 on MLS.
