Working on a construction deal that I would have to spearhead from A to Z; e.g. from (1) helping to devise the strategy; (2) acquiring land; (3) finding and working with a developer to build warehouses; (4) leasing them, and (5) selling the whole portfolio... Or, an alternative of such scenario. Would love your contact so can discuss strategies and tactics. This might turn into a referral (for you!) Meeting with wealthy middle easterners later this week. Warmest thanks for reaching out, Malgorzata Maggie

On the surface it looks promising. Your due diligence will give you exact numbers based on owners past tax returns and actual cost/income. Make sure you have a conditional offer that includes esstopal letters and a escape/option to reduce offer once real numbers are known. If you purchase switch all tenants to M2M leases as soon as their present leases end and raise their rents to market. If this is a hobby or one property landlord the rents will surely be below market. If it is a professional landlord this will likely not be the case.

The advantage of seeing tax returns is that most investors will fudge the numbers by increasing expenses on their taxes to reduce their income. This will give you the opportunity to reduce your offer based on their own numbers even if they are false.

 Thanks for good tips, the seller wants to have no financing contingency in the contract and wants 10% escrow upfront. 

everything is negotiable....  why 10% in escrow (and why all up front)? If no financing contingency, what are your other ways to "get out of the contract" if discover something that would make this purchase no longer attractive? Are you paying cash?

"according to the broker"....?  Being in this industry in Miami, I hope you have seen / will soon see the actual leases, rent roll or some other affidavits signed by tenants that confirm that income (rents) & vacancy rate.
