Why Owatonna
Why We Buy Multifamily In Owatonna
Owatonna is one of the Minnesota markets where we actively evaluate apartment buildings. Rental demand here is supported by Federated Insurance headquarters, Viracon glass manufacturing, and I-35 corridor and Owatonna Hospital.
Owatonna's rental market is small and driven by insurance and manufacturing jobs. Older downtown buildings can need significant updates, and buyers should account for winter operating costs and limited resale depth.
Around Ellendale, Downtown Owatonna, and nearby parts of Steele County, a building does not need to be perfect — we price in repairs and vacancy ourselves.
