What made you interested in investing in this type of deal?
Partnering with great people
I like value add properties. I flipped over 500 houses, then switched to multi family apartments.
The reason I switched:
Tenants pay debt service.
You can move half te residents out to renovate and the other half are still paying rent.
Depreciation / Tax Benefits!!!!
Passive income
Long term wealth
I can create syndication
How did you find this deal and how did you negotiate it?
A broker i have purchased from in the past found it on Loopnet. The property was
How did you finance this deal?
Bridge financing
How did you add value to the deal?
We completed the renovations in 8 weeks. The complex was 50% vacant. We released at market rents and increased the remaining tenant rents to market rate.
What was the outcome?
We 1031 exchanged a $400,000 profit into 5 properties. 4 of those properties are long term hold. The fifth will be resold for another $400,000 profit. We will exchange into 4-5 more properties and repeat the same process.
Lessons learned? Challenges?
It's better to pay bad residents to leave early and avoid longer evictions.

Mitch, thanks for sharing, and congrats on the success. I live in Fresno and am actively seeking deals like this with a partner, so I find it particularly helpful. I’ve experienced great cash flow from my out of state rentals, but am now interested in both development and value-add close to home, where I can better utilize my experience and professional background. What part of Fresno was this property in?
