Why Dubuque
Why We Buy Multifamily In Dubuque
Renters come to Dubuque for John Deere Dubuque Works and Loras College, Clarke University and University of Dubuque, and MercyOne Dubuque Medical Center and UnityPoint Finley Hospital adds another layer of steady demand.
Dubuque's rental stock leans toward older small multifamily and converted historic buildings, with newer loft projects in the Millwork District and near the riverfront. Buyers should weigh steady demand from colleges, healthcare, and manufacturing against the cost of maintaining older brick buildings on the city's steep terrain.
We look for multifamily properties of 5+ units in areas such as Historic Millwork District, Port of Dubuque, and Cable Car Square — from well-kept stabilized buildings to properties that need renovation, better management, or lease-up.

Dubuque Seller FAQ
Which parts of Dubuque do you buy in?
We look across the city and its surroundings — Historic Millwork District, Port of Dubuque, Cable Car Square, and North End — and we will review a property outside those areas on its own merits.
What drives rental demand in Dubuque?
Demand in Dubuque is supported by John Deere Dubuque Works, Loras College, Clarke University and University of Dubuque, and MercyOne Dubuque Medical Center and UnityPoint Finley Hospital. We weigh those fundamentals, along with the condition and rent roll of each building, when we set a price.
