The rooftop is closed because of the rain. When you get there, find me at the bar. I am there with a checked shirt.

@John Casmon @Tom Knox
What about Elyria?
I am looking at a portfolio of multifamily units located near the Midway mall.
Is it a good place to buy/invest, in your opinion?

Thanks.

 I'm sorry, but that is too far West for me. I mainly work on the Eastside so I am not 100% confident in that market. I do not want to give you incorrect information. 

Thanks Tom. I appreciate

Maybe your description is overly simplified but based on the information provided, I don't see how you make money.
You are paying today for tomorrow's equity.

Alright, here is my understanding of the situation.

ARV = 3.5M (Let's be conservative)
Development cost = 2M 
Value of the land as it is today (If I got it correctly) = 1.5M of which you will own 40% if you pay 620k for it. 

Just at that stage, I am struggling to see where the value creation is!

Now in terms of how the deals is structured, I am struggling to see how it benefit you.

All of the 620k you'll pay will go to your land owner who bought it 900k and is now completely out of pocket while the land still carries a mortgage for 550K.

I am not sure how this deal makes sense.

Is there more to it?
I am missing the point somewhere?

Hey @Dilthon Ramos
Did she ever had a mortgage on the house?

If so, then surely she has some credit history that could help her get a new mortgage.
No?
