Investment Info:

Small multi-family (2-4 units) buy & hold investment.

Purchase price: $225,000
Cash invested: $275,000

This property is in Daytona Beach Florida its 4 blocks from the beach and 4 blocks from main street. The property is a Single-Family Property with an ADU in the back. I am working on converting the garage to another rentable unit and the shed to a tiny home. The top ADU is rented and the main house is a 3/2 that will be available to rent on May 1st, 2023. If you're looking to rent or know someone that is interested please reach out.

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

The potential to add additional units to the Main Home and the ADU already there. Adding an additional 2 units will be key to being able to cash flow.

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

Deal was brought to me by a wholesaler on Facebook.

How did you finance this deal?

The Deal was paid cash working the BRRRR method to bring the cash back.

How did you add value to the deal?

Renovated the main home getting it ready to rent by May 1st, 2023. Once the main home is rented then I will be working on converting the shed to a tiny home and converting the garage to another unit.

Lessons learned? Challenges?

make sure you walk the property thoroughly. I missed somethings on the walkthrough. Always look for was to add value and other ways that you can create cashflow.

I live in FL and I love it.  It's a very friendly business state with no state tax.  I am a realtor myself there are deals to be made but your correct its not easy to find. Your comment on it being overpriced depends on the value you put on things. I value lower taxes and less regulations, I value the sunshine and beaches that Florida provides, so do I have to pay a little more for that so be it.  Appreciation in FL is a real thing I know from personal experience. You might get better cash flow in Cleveland or Detroit, but I don't want those crazy winters. 

Off Market is an option but with my W2 job I don't have the time nor the desire to cold call and the mailer conversion rate is ridiculously low. Do you have any suggestion on how to do off market without doing cold calls or mailers?

I appreciate your take @Bob S. 

Thank You

@Duriel Taylor please message me to discuss we are still actively looking to purchase in South and Central Florida. 

@Dwayne Byrd price range we are looking at Duplex from the 200K Range to 16 Units at about 2Million.  Our sweet spot is between 4 and 8 units from 400K to 1 Million. 

@Kevin Kohler this depends on the area the building for Cost per door. Depends on the Class of Building there is alot of variables. Target Cash on Cash minimum is 7% we aim to make 10%. The target Cap Rate depends on the market we are in but we are looking at Caps of 7% to 9%. We have appetite for CapEX as we look for value add opportunities that will increase our NOI and reduce expenses.

I am sorry for the late reply.  Please feel to free to reach out to me to discuss further.  We are still actively looking to purchase. 

Thank You

Hello All, 

My name is Manny, and I am an IT Manager, a Real Estate Investor, and a Licensed Real Estate Agent in Fl.  I have recently moved from South Florida to the Space Coast, and I am looking for serious people who are interested in investing in multifamily.  Looking for a Hunter type that would like to join our team and help us find deals.  We are building a team with a fantastic underwriter that knows the numbers inside and out, a solid money and capital raiser, an experience asset management team, but we are missing the deal finder. 

So, we are looking for local South Florida people who would like to partner up and go after multifamily deals. 

My role is to Analyze the Deals, make sure the numbers add up, create a business plan, increase the NOI, reduce expenses, help manage the asset, provide some skin in the game, and raise the overall value of the property over 5 years.

Our other partner's role is to help manage the asset, provide additional funds, and to help bring capital investment on larger deals. 

Your role will be to talk to agents, property managers, look for off market deals, and provide some skin in the game for potential deals. 

If you have the Hunter type skills and you're interested in Multifamily investing let's connect. 

Thanks 

Manny 

Hi @Danielle Lynch

I am an investor, a realtor, and lived in South Florida for over 30 years. The South Florida market is tough but it's not impossible to cash flow. Areas in Broward and Palm Beach are going to cash flow more than other places. I would look at Miramar, Hollywood, Dania Beach, Lake Worth, West Palm Beach. You want to look for C+ to B- neighborhoods and Class C buildings where you can do some value add to get higher rents and increase your NOI.

I would advise that you start small 2-4 units and once you have a solid team then move into the commercial space.  If I can be of any help please feel free to reach out.

Hope that helps

Good afternoon, I am actively investing in real estate. I am taking my game to the next level and investing in Multi-Family Real-estate. I have been successfully completed a couple of flips in South Florida and I have an active mid-term rental that rents in Jensen Beach. (If you are interested let me know). 

I recently started my multi-family journey with a Duplex in Daytona Beach that we are looking to convert to Triplex and are currently fixing it up. I have recently joined the Bigger Pockets Multifamily Boot Camp to learn more about multifamily real estate. I am looking to expand my business by buying apartment buildings and helping people that want to make money passively build their net worth while I build my business of multi-family apartment buildings.

If you like to join me on my journey or get some education on multifamily investing, I urge you to friend me, or send me a message. 

My target markets are in Florida, Tennessee, Georgia, and Texas. If you reach out, I will explain the specific cities and why we chose them.

Looking forward to connecting with people who are interested in multifamily investing.
