Spec build, 3,100 sq ft, finishing in about five weeks. Stager came back with the agreement and I'm stuck on a few clauses before I sign. Terms: 9,800 install for 11 spaces, 90 da…
Getting quotes for a friend's listing and the spread is wide. One stager said $3,900 for a vacant three bed, two bath, about 1,700 square feet, covering the main living room, dini…
Sold two parcels I'd assembled, gain about $210k. Went into a QOF whose whole plan was 60 acres inside a designated tract, bought for around $2.1M, entitled for build-to-rent, pha…
Closed out last month at 1.03x on $55k over four years and I've spent a while working out where the money went, because the property did fine. Deal was a portfolio of small rural…
I'm getting ready to list a piece of vacant land, gently rolling, mostly cleared, a seasonal creek along one edge. Nothing on it. No structures, no driveway, one gate. A local sho…
I've owned a 48,000 square foot single tenant distribution building since 2016. Third generation family distributor, 28 foot clear, seven docks, decent yard. Lease was running to…
I priced out three ways to get notice-of-default leads in the two counties I can drive and the spread is bigger than I expected. Paid platform with daily pulls: about 129 a month,…
The recovery case rests on absorption overtaking deliveries and staying there long enough for rents to firm. Everyone models the pipeline contraction. Almost nobody models the res…
Every unit I've bought taught me something new to worry about, and this one I can't find a straight answer on. I'm looking at moving some cash into crowdfunded deals instead of bu…
Been building the first deal budget for months and I finally ran the crowdfunding version side by side against the small rental version, because at some point I have to pick a lan…
Small one, but it cost me real money and nobody warned me. Put $6k into a crowdfunded equity deal, first year went fine, distributions totaled about $310. Happy enough with that f…
Numbers first. 31,000 square feet, built 1979, single tenant vacant at purchase, 18 foot clear at the peak of the bay and about 16 at the haunch, four dock doors with no levelers,…
Small deal, four of us in an LLC buying a 1960s six unit in a second tier market for $612k. Cash portion from members, the rest from a local bank at 70 percent. I was the one hand…
I've read the FHA multi-unit path a few times now and it makes sense to me: buy up to a fourplex, live in one, low down payment because you're an owner-occupant. Clear enough. Wha…
Deal in front of me. Operator buys a duplex at 210k with his own bridge, my 90k funds the rehab, and I'm repaid from the cash-out refinance at an agreed return. He's projecting af…
First rental is a BRRRR I'm holding, and I've been so deep in screening reading that I've created a timing problem for myself. Market rent looks like $1,900. I have an applicant w…
I bought one house, half a mile from campus at a large public university that's been growing, and I've now finished a full lease year, so here's what happened. Paid $372k, put 25%…
I do roofing and gutters, mostly repair work, so I'm on ladders looking at houses all day. Two months ago I bid a roof on a 1950s ranch, three layers of shingles, decking gone sof…
I've been driving a three-county area and pulling code violation notices off the county site, maybe 30 to 40 names a month that look worth a call. Two investors are interested. In…
I'm nowhere near doing this, I just wanted to see the GP economics from the inside instead of reading about promotes in the abstract. So I built a fake deal and paid myself in the…
