The issue with doing this method is it takes more money up front for the renovations, you are buying older properties which may have more needed capital expenditures, and it takes more time and energy.

Land banking in the path of renewable energy projects could definitely pay off, especially if you choose parcels with the right zoning and infrastructure in place.While my focus has been more on the East Coast, I’d love to hear how things are shaping up in Kern County.

@Andrew AcunaIf your goal is to build a large real estate portfolio, then you will not do so successfully without PMs.

(Note: These are non-negotiable requirements) Other Incentive ProgramsSmall Business Improvement Fund: Best thought of as a storefront/small business rehabilitation program, this small grant program ($150,000 for commercial properties and $250,000 for industrial properties) is targeted for smaller renovation projects and can cover anywhere from 30-90% of the cost of remodeling a storefront facade, roof replacement, major systems replacements (HVAC, plumbing, electrical, etc.) or an individual interior space build-out within a larger building to get it tenant ready.

They can provide steady rental income and tend to be easier to manage than larger complexes.Management: Since real estate investing can require hands-on management, think about whether you want to manage the property yourself or hire a property management company.

Probably not good for something that grosses $30k but will provide outsized value on larger bookings. 

We are focused on the ARC CURVE as I call it.This is where for investment grade credit tenant we are trying to time cap rate uptick on larger priced properties with good term left say 10 years plus primary term.

Most of our sites are a little bit larger - 50 unit to 300 unit apartment-style or townhome-style developments. 

I am looking to invest in apartments and rolling my 'dead equity' in something larger (apartments).

If you’re planning to scale you can look into larger ERPs like Buildium or Yardi.
