Direct multifamily buyer
Sell your Houston multifamily property to Kallpa
Kallpa is a direct buyer of 20-to-50-unit multifamily in the Houston metro. We close on seller-financed and cash deals, and we underwrite with realistic insurance and capex assumptions.
What we buy
What does Kallpa buy in Houston?
20 to 50 units. 20 to 50 units, B/C class, post-1960s, with a value-add path.
Houston is one of the deepest 20-to-50-unit markets in the country. We focus on the submarkets where workforce housing still cash-flows after honest underwriting.
Submarkets: Inner-Loop east and southeast, Spring Branch, Pasadena, Humble, Pearland, Sugar Land, Katy.
Why this market
Why is Kallpa active in Houston?
Houston has the deepest 20-to-50-unit market in our footprint, the largest out-of-state owner population, and one of the broadest rent-growth profiles. The ten major submarkets we look at all have different fundamentals, which means there's always somewhere we'd rather be looking.
Underwriting
What does Kallpa look at first when underwriting a Houston deal?
Three Houston-specific risks shape our underwriting: flood zone exposure (we look at FEMA maps, prior claim history, and elevation against the building footprint), Harris County property tax reset on sale, and insurance that has risen sharply since 2017's hurricane season.
Sellers we meet
Who are the typical sellers in Houston?
Out-of-state owners are the largest seller category in Houston by a wide margin. Heir property situations come second (Texas inheritance law often produces partial-share tangles that direct off-market buyers can resolve more easily than the auction process). Partnership wind-downs are the third.

Market FAQ
Common questions about selling in Houston
- How do you handle Houston's flood-zone exposure in your offers?
- We flag flood zone, prior claim history, and elevation against the building footprint. If the building has flooded since Harvey, we want to see what's been done. We don't pass on flood-prone assets reflexively, but we underwrite the insurance reality.
- Will you buy from out-of-state Houston owners?
- Often. Out-of-state owners are one of our most common seller types in Houston. We coordinate inspections, walk-throughs, and closing entirely remotely.
