Investment Info:

Small multi-family (2-4 units) other investment in Martins Ferry.

Current Construction Co. and Resolute RDM have acquired this development project in Lebanon, MO. In agreement with the City of Lebanon, we will redevelop ~35 acres into 242 lots for ranch-floorplan duplexes and SFRs, available for purchase by retail and investment buyers.

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

We have been working in the affordable housing space for some time, and this allowed us to partner with the local community and provide a housing solution they need as their city continues to expand with new jobs they are successfully bringing to town.

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

Worked with previous partnerships that have been cultivated over the years.

How did you finance this deal?

Local lenders and partnerships.

How did you add value to the deal?

Appraisal

Lessons learned? Challenges?

These kinds of deals take time to develop. Continually communicate clearly with all parties involved to make sure that expectations are as close to realistic timelines as possible.

Did you work with any real estate professionals (agents, lenders, etc.) that you'd recommend to others?

Yes, Evan Conner has been an excellent source for us in the Ozarks area of Missouri.

It’s wonderful to see you exploring a new path in real estate! Changing careers can certainly be a challenge, but it sounds like you're equipped with a solid foundation thanks to your sister's support. Plus, your proactive steps, like cold-calling and Driving For Dollars, show your commitment and enthusiasm!

Considering your situation, it can be wise to keep your 9-5 job while you develop your real estate knowledge and network. The 9-5 income can also be a bridge for you that lenders like to see to help you with your first acquisition. This gives you financial stability during your transition. Positions with real estate investors or related roles can offer income and experience. You could seek administrative roles, leasing assistant positions, or internships to learn the business paycheck.

To find DFW meetups, check local real estate investment associations (REIAs) and Meetup.com. Networking events, seminars, and workshops help you connect with like-minded individuals and mentors. Reach out to professionals for informational interviews; many share their experiences and advice.

Everyone starts somewhere, and it’s normal to feel lost at first. Stay curious, keep learning, and celebrate small victories. Your enthusiasm is inspiring, and I’m confident you’ll find your way. Good luck and hit me up with any questions or thoughts.

Investment Info:

Single-family residence other investment.

Purchase price: $12,000
Cash invested: $60,000
Sale price: $290,000

Smaller market proof of concept for the lower side of the middle market. The surrounding area was exploding with 500k-1.2M homes, and this small quaint town offered a lot of local charm with a double lot we purchased for $12,000. Overall, we were able to create a new product, offering a first-floor Main Bedroom Suite and three additional bedrooms on the second floor. The product was great, and the price point worked wonderfully.

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

Proof of concept for the small submarket and providing a middle-class scattered lot built in a growing area.

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

Worked with our brokerage team.

How did you finance this deal?

One of our syndications and local lender.

How did you add value to the deal?

Providing the town with a new property on a vacant and abandoned lot.

What was the outcome?

It was a win/win for everyone involved.

Lessons learned? Challenges?

Development always comes with challenges, and in this case we were able to maintain our target sale price, but our days on market projections were extended due to changes in the interest rates.

Post: Quick liquidation with value add benefits for all parties

Investment Info:

Single-family residence buy & hold investment in Shawboro.

Purchase price: $141,000
Cash invested: $32,000
Sale price: $220,000

In collaboration with our client, we expedited the liquidation of their property, which we had managed for years. Initially, the plan was to maintain the existing tenant. However, upon their departure, a window of opportunity opened. Our committed team seized this chance, diligently refurbishing the property before successfully selling it to an owner-occupant. This is a testament to our ability to adapt and deliver valuable outcomes in dynamic situations.

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

We are an integrated company providing investors with opportunities to Purchase, Hold, Renovate, Build, Develop, and Flip properties across all market cycles. This venture enables all parties to reach their objectives and deliver exceptional homes to future owners.

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

This deal was arranged for our management client who wished to sell their asset quickly without having to go through the hassle of the market and without having to deal with any more rental issues. This way, both parties benefited as the deal was within our network of clients.

How did you finance this deal?

Local lenders as it was maintained as a rental until we could flip the property to an owner-occupant product.

How did you add value to the deal?

We successfully addressed our client's need for a swift and seamless exit while keeping the property as a rental asset. Subsequently, we facilitated a connection with a buyer who leveraged the cash flow until the owner-occupant market yielded a positive return on investments. As the end buyers were local, we could provide housing solutions to local residents and keep home ownership a goal for local residents.

What was the outcome?

It positively influenced all parties, expediting the liquidation for our former client while reducing transactional hurdles. The sale yielded a net profit meeting the buyer's return expectations. Adhering to standards facilitated new homeowners' acquisition of renovated homes, fostering the growth of family ownership in the neighborhood.

Lessons learned? Challenges?

Standard lessons include the inevitability of interesting challenges. In this instance, the location posed creative obstacles due to the neighbor's frequent collection of vehicles near the driveway, encroaching on the property at times.

Did you work with any real estate professionals (agents, lenders, etc.) that you'd recommend to others?

Yes, our team of Realtors, Management Professionals, and our contracting capabilities provided all parties with excellent service and endless options.
