Post: Finding the Right Investment Opportunities

When I first started investing in real estate, I discovered how important it was to identify and capitalize on the right opportunities.

Understanding property unit numbers is an important factor in analyzing investment options. The size of a property influences its profitability and managerial efficiency.

Property managers frequently consider smaller properties unproductive, whereas larger properties allow for more efficient operations and the potential to hire an in-house property manager and maintenance team.

With just under 20 units on the site, you must be hands-on. This can be tough to grow, especially when using a third-party management business. Expenses will be higher per unit cost and income ratio than in 100+ unit buildings. Here, it is better to use in-house self-management, followed by floating workers for necessities such as leasing and maintenance.

With 80 to 100+ apartments, you can go all out and include onsite staff and a leasing office. Ideally, for every 100 units, one staff member should be in the office (Property Manager, Leasing, Assistant) and one outside (Maintenance, Porter, Make Ready).

To achieve maximum efficiency and profitability, I propose focusing on properties with a large number of units. In general, if your property has 80 or more units, you can engage an in-house property manager, leasing agent, and maintenance staff. This not only eliminates dependency on third-party property managers, but also provides greater control over operations and assures continuous quality management.

While the best threshold for in-house management is between 80 and 100 units, I recommend that investors focus on properties within this range for effective operations. This range varies based on wages and expenses.

Finding the right balance between property size and managerial capabilities is critical for long-term success in real estate investment.

Aspiring investors should keep these aspects in mind when evaluating possible properties. Understanding property unit numbers and their impact on management efficiency allows you to make informed decisions and avoid problems that could stifle your growth.

To rope in possible investors, you must inspire confidence. People want someone they know, someone they believe in. And I started out intending exactly that.

I gave developing a personal brand and a strong internet presence my heart and soul. You really do have to prove them you are the real deal. And I kept on from there. I discovered that communication of information and expertise counts. I subsequently disseminate educational resources without hesitation, aiming to establish myself as the leading expert in all aspects of real estate investment.

By introducing passive investment—the folks who want a piece of the real estate pie but lack the time or knowledge to handle all the nitty-gritty details—I have also broken the code on attracting possible investors. The busyness of life comes from understanding it. I therefore make it simple for people to join in without having to deal with daily operations' headache.

My combo of a reputable personal brand, online presence, dropping knowledge bombs, and sweet passive investment opportunities is like a real estate investor's dream come true. These strategies have brought me incredible success in attracting investors and building rock-solid relationships.

Take it from me, unlocking real estate excellence mostly depends on developing trust and involving investors.

Quote from @Alex Olson:

Kansas City is a great market for Build to Rent and traditional garden style apartment complexes. 


 Agreed. We acquired an A Class garden style 200 unit at the end of 2023 in Overland Park. It's a very hot market and the rent growth has reflected as such.

    Post: Building an Empire in Real Estate: From Dreams to Reality

    My ultimate ambition is to expand my real estate empire and achieve the astounding milestone of 100,000 units. Scaling a firm demands a clear vision, smart preparation, and unwavering determination. Setting ambitious goals keeps me motivated to grow and enhance my investing portfolio. I want to leave a legacy and make a lasting influence. 

    Speaking about investment, it's a crazy ride out there. 🎢 Market trends, investing methods, and economic situations are like a rollercoaster—they constantly change and twist. So I've embraced an attitude of continuous learning and adaptation. I stay current with market insights and hot trends so that I may make informed judgments and stay ahead of the competition. Who said that learning couldn't be fun?

    Syndication has been an essential element in creating scalability for my business. It enables me to pool resources, leverage my partners' skills, and gain access to larger investment possibilities that would be impossible for me to pursue alone. Syndication was the key that opened the door to exponential development, allowing me to reach new heights in my real estate career.

    During my own journey, I learned that syndication was the key to growing my business. It enabled me to draw on the financial resources of others while utilizing my own knowledge and experience.

    So, armed with the power of syndication and a growth mindset, I'm steadily growing my business toward the incredible goal of 100,000 units. I am confident that I will accomplish even greater things in the future. Why? Partnerships, perseverance, and a dedication to ongoing learning. It's all about thinking big and creating a real estate empire that would make Buffet and Trump blush. Okay, perhaps not the last part.😂😂😂

    I trust that this will motivate you to pursue your aspirations, establish objectives, and dominate the field of syndication. 🚀
