Seller Finance Mini Storage/Commercial Property

Jordan Brown
Posted

Investment Info:

Other commercial investment investment in Talent.

Purchase price: $1,500,000
Cash invested: $15,000

Recently purchased a self storage facility with 106 units, 46 RV spaces, a 4200 sqft commercial shop with office space and warehouse and a duplex on the property.

What made you interested in investing in this type of deal?

It was my grandfathers business and I have always loved real estate and have seen the benefits self storage provided for him and my grandmother over the years.

How did you find this deal and how did you negotiate it?

I asked if I could buy it from my grandfather on the negotiation of a seller financing deal where he would save money on taxes with monthly installment payments that would be his retirement essentially.

How did you finance this deal?

Seller financing on a 25 year loan.

How did you add value to the deal?

I did research on where our competitions prices were and noticed we were below market value. Day one I raised the rents and rented out the back shop to another business to increase revenues dramatically.

What was the outcome?

I have negotiated with the business that rents the main commercial shop on the property to manage the facility in exchange for lower rent as if it was a management fee but also increased rents elsewhere. Overall, I have been able to make the investment more passive and less work for me where I can focus on other ventures and have increased my NOI by over 25%.
