The Up Plex Mission

Elevating others by providing wealth-building, passive investment opportunities through real estate.

It’s a known fact that owning real estate can be one of the best passive investment vehicles for you. More specifically, apartment buildings and commercial real estate. However, it also comes with an incredible amount of complexities in trying to acquire such assets and we’ve found that to be the reason most beginner investors shy away from pursuing.

So we set out to make it more attainable for investors to invest in these incredible wealth-building assets with confidence. As a limited partner, you get to leverage our time, network, and decades of experience to create peace of mind with every investment you make with us. We do our best to mitigate as much risk as possible. So much so that we won’t offer an opportunity that we aren’t investing in ourselves.

Our Success Formula

Underwriting & Negotiating

Detailed underwriting determines the amount of negotiating that can be done with a seller on price and terms. Our experience allows us to properly analyze an asset and mitigate as much risk as possible for our investors.

Contract Review / Due Diligence

We have established the best legal and due diligence teams for our syndications. This allows us to simultaneously expedite two incredibly time-consuming tasks that most beginning investors struggle with.

Closing & Reassessment

There is more to closing than just signing on the dotted line and handing over the keys. There is an equal amount of critical work that needs to be completed soon after to ensure the success of a syndication.

Enacting Business Plan / CapEx

We identify and prioritize the necessary projects and execute them based on funding and critical need. Simultaneously, our expert CapEx team gets to work by coordinating with asset and property managers to assist in stabilizing the property.

Stabilization / Refinance

This process usually takes just over 2 years (depending on the market) and involves everything from completing CapEx, to ensuring organic fair market rent growth, to managing tenant turnover, all while working to decrease expenses.

Sale/Disposition

When it comes time to sell, we prepare the property to show as cost-effectively as possible. Once sold, we ensure that we properly close out business transactions and 3 months after the sale, we deliver all sales proceeds (return of capital) to our investors.

Nuestra fórmula del éxito

Suscripción y negociación

La suscripción detallada determina el grado de negociación que se puede realizar con un vendedor sobre el precio y las condiciones. Nuestra experiencia nos permite analizar adecuadamente un activo y mitigar el mayor riesgo posible para nuestros inversores.

Revisión de contrato / diligencia debida

Hemos creado los mejores equipos legales y de due diligence para nuestras sindicaciones. Esto nos permite agilizar simultáneamente dos tareas que consumen muchísimo tiempo y con las que la mayoría de los inversores principiantes tienen dificultades.

Cierre y reevaluación

El cierre implica mucho más que simplemente firmar en la línea de puntos y entregar las llaves. Hay una cantidad igual de trabajo crítico que debe completarse poco después para garantizar el éxito de una sindicación.

Implementación del plan de negocios / CapEx

Identificamos y priorizamos los proyectos necesarios y los ejecutamos en función de la financiación y la necesidad crítica. Al mismo tiempo, nuestro equipo experto en gastos de capital se pone a trabajar en coordinación con los administradores de activos y propiedades para ayudar a estabilizar la propiedad.

Estabilización / Refinanciación

Este proceso suele tardar un poco más de 2 años (dependiendo del mercado) e implica todo, desde completar el CapEx, hasta asegurar un crecimiento orgánico y justo del alquiler en el mercado, hasta gestionar la rotación de inquilinos, todo mientras se trabaja para reducir los gastos.

Venta/Disposición

Cuando llega el momento de vender, preparamos la propiedad para mostrarla de la forma más rentable posible. Una vez vendida, nos aseguramos de cerrar adecuadamente las transacciones comerciales y, 3 meses después de la venta, entregamos todos los ingresos de la venta (retorno de capital) a nuestros inversores.

Can You Really Make Money During Inflation?

Syndication| Passive Income| Blog| Multifamily

January 22, 2026•2 min read

Inflation affects everyone. Prices go up, but your money doesn’t go as far as it used to. Groceries cost more, rent increases, and everyday expenses slowly eat away at your savings.

For most people, inflation feels like a loss. But here’s the surprising truth: some investors actually make money during inflation.

How do they do it? By investing in assets that can adjust as prices rise—one of the most effective being multifamily real estate.

Why Inflation Hurts (and Why It Doesn’t Have To)

Inflation doesn’t take money directly from you. Instead, it reduces your purchasing power. The same amount of money buys fewer goods and services over time.

That’s why holding too much cash or relying on investments that don’t grow can be risky during inflationary periods. To protect your wealth, your investments need to grow at least as fast as inflation—preferably faster.

Why Apartment Buildings Are Different

Not all real estate is valued the same way.

Single-family homes are typically valued by comparing them to nearby homes that recently sold. Apartment buildings, however, are valued based on how much income they generate.

Simply put:More income = higher value

This income-based valuation is what makes multifamily real estate especially powerful during inflation.

Short Leases Create Flexibility

Most apartment leases are one year or less. That means rents can be adjusted regularly as market conditions change.

As inflation pushes costs higher across the economy, apartment owners can gradually increase rents to help offset rising expenses. This flexibility is something many other investments—like office or retail properties with long-term leases—don’t have.

A Simple Example

Imagine a 100-unit apartment building.

Rents increase modestly
Expenses also rise due to inflation
But rent increases apply to all income, while inflation only affects part of the expenses

The result?

Cash flow remains strong or increases
The property’s value grows
The investment stays protected against inflation

Even when rent growth is modest, apartments tend to provide a built-in buffer that helps investors avoid losing money to inflation.

A Proven Track Record

Historically, multifamily real estate has performed well during inflationary periods. Over several decades, it has outpaced inflation more consistently than many traditional investments, including the stock market.

This combination of steady income, value growth, and lower volatility is why many investors consider multifamily real estate a core part of a long-term portfolio.

Final Thoughts

Inflation is unavoidable—but how it affects you is a choice.

You can allow inflation to slowly reduce your buying power, or you can invest in assets designed to adjust, adapt, and grow in rising-price environments.

Multifamily real estate offers a practical way to protect your money while positioning yourself for long-term growth.
