Buford: median renter share 24.6%; ACS median gross rent $1,714; FY2027 2BR SAFMR $1,985; 2BR SAFMR is 1.16× ACS median gross rent; 267 units in 2-unit structures, 316 in 3–4-unit structures, and 1,859 in 5–49-unit structures; population up +15.5% between ACS 2018 and 2023; 7 LIHTC projects (1,149 units); 1,781 allocated 5+ unit permits (county BPS × ZCTA share). Census / HUD stock — not a rent roll and not a buy/sell score.

ZCTA ≈ USPS ZIP. ACS 5-year 2023 lags construction. Units-in-structure is Census standing stock (2-unit vs 3–4 vs 5–49 vs 50+), not the live FMLS card. SAFMR is a bedroom-specific HUD voucher benchmark, not asking rent. LIHTC / assisted-MF are inventory of record and belong on apartment pages. 5+ permits are county BPS 2025 allocated by ZCTA housing-unit share. Brokerage is Georgia-only.

Frequently Asked Questions — Buford Multifamily

Are there multifamily for sale in Buford?

This page is the live FMLS Residential Income set for multifamily in Buford. Counts change with the MLS feed. If inventory is thin, open the statewide Georgia multifamily collection or the county page for a larger sample.

How does Buford compare to Georgia overall for multifamily?

Use the statewide inventory at /multifamily-for-sale/georgia for the full Georgia multifamily set, then compare $/door and published cap estimates against this city. Smaller markets often have one or two live listings; that is not a full comp set.

Do multifamily in Buford still qualify for residential financing?

Most 2–4 unit multifamily can still qualify for conventional residential financing when the buyer and property meet guidelines. Always confirm with your lender. 5+ unit buildings are a different stack.

Why is the estimated cap rate missing on some Buford listings?

Yields on this site are independent screening models, not MLS fields. A listing is left out of the cap sample when we cannot publish a number. That is not a zero cap — pull the rent roll.
