What Camden Property Trust does

US apartment REIT that owns and operates multifamily communities concentrated in Sunbelt growth markets.

Collects rent on apartment communities under roughly year-long leases, so income follows occupancy and how far rents can rise when leases turn over. It builds some communities itself rather than only buying them. As a REIT, it pays out most taxable income.

Products and services

  • Garden-style apartment communities
  • Mid/high-rise urban apartments
  • Ground-up development

Customers

  • Renters in Sunbelt metros (Houston, Dallas, Atlant

Where it sits in the supply chain

  • Real estate
  • Residential REITs
  • Multifamily apartments

What could go right

  • Sunbelt population and job in-migration
  • Rent growth as new supply is absorbed

What could go wrong

  • New apartment supply gluts in Sunbelt metros
  • Cap-rate sensitivity to interest rates

Moat: narrow (scale, installed base). Large diversified Sunbelt portfolio and low cost of capital aid occupancy but are not truly defensible.
