Rural parcel, roughly 90 acres, and the abstract goes back further than anyone's institutional memory. The title company quoted me the standard search plus an extended examination…
Two houses I looked at this month and they are almost opposites. The first is a licensed 6-bed with all six beds filled. The seller wants a number that works out to roughly the ho…
Got the PPM Friday. Two deals with this group as an LP, both mid-size value-add multifamily in secondary markets, both still holding, both roughly on plan. The next vehicle isn't…
I'm modeling a 24 unit conversion out of a 1970s office building, all-in around $4.6m, and the two exits produce different projects, not just different returns. Sell at certificat…
I've got about $400 a month I can spend on outreach and maybe ten hours a week. I pulled a small list off a platform trial (absentee owners with long tenure in two zip codes, abou…
I'm still costing out a first deal and this is the fork I can't get past. The tapes I've been sent split roughly along foreclosure procedure. In the judicial states, where the len…
I'm three rungs in and the qualification problem is now bigger than the deal problem. The first two houses are on owner-occupant loans at rates I will never see again. Third one c…
Ran this the right way round. Buyer gave me a written box, I found a 1960s three bed on a corner lot that fit it, went to contract at 141,000 with 2,500 earnest, fourteen day insp…
Got two parcels under contract this quarter and one of them came from a hand mailed list, so I'm rebuilding my acquisition process and stuck on cost. Option A is cold mail to what…
Working through a small furnished unit and I keep landing on two different models for the same building, which means one of them is wrong. Model one prices it as what it is. Furni…
I've been circling strategies for months and driving is the one I can start on Saturday with no budget. What I haven't settled is what I'm supposed to do with a property if I get…
19 acres at $84k. Taxes plus a once-a-year mowing contract run about $1,400. That part I can absorb without noticing. What I can't get comfortable with is that the purchase would…
Small builder, four to six houses a year, I've watched him work for two years without doing anything about it. He's got a finished 1,700 foot three bedroom sitting since August, l…
Reading a fixed-price gut contract from a GC and the allowances section is doing an enormous amount of work. Allowance for tile, allowance for cabinetry, allowance for anything be…
Third one this year where the sourcing fee is quoted with a repair estimate included, and I keep going back and forth on whether I want that number from the same person who gets p…
The questions were mine, from a live deal. How a lender is likely to treat a unit that's been vacant nine months in a DSCR sizing, what a reserve line should look like on a 1960s…
I've been reading two small park listings side by side for a month now and the difference that keeps stopping me isn't the site count. One has a three bedroom house at the front,…
Running numbers on my own portfolio made me curious how sponsors justify this line item, because for a lot of them the answer seems to be that they can't yet. Setup: sponsor with…
Everything the account gives you on the income side, it takes back on the deduction side, and I don't see this discussed much when people compare an IRA rental to the same rental…
Got the plan set back from the designer for a 700 square foot cottage behind the main house and the electrical page has a note that says "owner to confirm metering approach prior…
