A Transformational Renovation in Parma, Ohio

6900 Lofts is a reimagined 111-unit apartment complex in Parma, Ohio, that underwent a complete transformation under RHM’s management. Originally known as Statehouse Apartments, the property required extensive renovations to enhance its appeal, functionality, and financial performance.

In 2020, RHM embarked on a 15-month renovation project, investing $1.4 million into upgrading unit interiors, common areas, and exterior elements. Our strategic improvements—executed in-house to ensure superior quality—helped reposition 6900 Lofts as a desirable, high-value residential community while maintaining strong occupancy rates.

The Challenge

  • Aging Interiors & Deferred Maintenance: The property suffered from outdated unit interiors and neglected maintenance, making it less attractive to prospective residents.
  • Negative Reputation: The previous property branding failed to resonate with renters, leading to a decline in desirability and lease rates.
  • High Occupancy During Renovations: Upgrading units while keeping occupancy levels stable required a careful, phased approach.
  • Achieving Justifiable Rent Increases: To recoup renovation costs and maximize investment returns, substantial rent increases were necessary without alienating existing tenants.

Our Solution

  • Comprehensive Rebranding: Our marketing team rebranded the property as 6900 Lofts, emphasizing its new modern features and revitalized living spaces.
  • Targeted Marketing Strategies: A strong social media presence, digital marketing campaigns, and a custom-built website showcased property upgrades, attracting high-quality leads.
  • Enhanced Leasing Experience: A seamless online viewing process and well-trained on-site staff helped prospective residents understand and appreciate the value of the renovations.
  • Strategic Renovation Execution: All upgrades, including modernized unit finishes, energy-efficient lighting, and new amenities like a fitness and business center, were completed with minimal disruption to residents.

The Results

  • Higher Occupancy & Resident Interest: The property saw a substantial increase in prospective tenant traffic and occupancy rates.
  • Industry Recognition: 6900 Lofts was honored with a prestigious Platinum Key Award from the Northeast Ohio Apartment Association (NOAA).
  • Stronger Community Reputation: The rebrand and enhancements significantly improved the perception of the property, making it a sought-after living space.
  • Impressive Financial Performance: Rental premiums increased by 43%, validating the success of RHM’s strategic renovations and marketing efforts.
