Realtors and contractors are promoting the slumlord experience, eg never investing in the property, and extracting every bit of blood out of the house you possibly can etc.This works well in the short term, but when it's time to dispose of the asset, people will look at your manky horrible windows and knock you for them.But then replacement won't be $6k by that time, they'll be $10k, and the buyer will knock you $15k on the price - because they can.Don't fall into the trap "it's just a rental".

Is here a way to extract the cash out of the company and take the distribution, pay the income taxes BUT avoid the 10% excise tax?

Congrats, guys, and thanks for providing quality content and extracting all the details out of this deal. 

Trouble is there's no way to extract a $25K spread out of a deal like that unless the end buyer has $25 in cash.

Hi Everyone - In an effort to determine ARV on a potential fix and flip in an efficient manner, I've asked my r/e agents to send me data extracts from the MLS on the comps.

I have 100% equity in my investment property and I would like to extract the equity to buy more investment properties.

73% operating expenses is off the charts unless your friend is paying himself out a big salary and retirement etc.Age of the building and location will determine what CAP rate a buyer will pay among many other factors.If your friend owner finances a portion they may be able to extract a higher price.If they want a straight sale from a cash buyer the price will be lower.The scary part is your friend owns an 86 unit but does not know how to go about estimating value.I expect this with investors owning 4 to 10 units but not usually complexes that big.To purchase ones that big usually the owner has a very good grasp of cost and resale analysis.Investor buyers will look at value add with the property as well the current CAP rate going in and projected CAP rate later on.For an older building a 10% CAP is a good starting point to draw interest in many markets.That would put your friend at a sales price of 1,730,000 before resale costs.Really needs a commercial broker in the area that specializes in these types of property.

Several moving parts and complex (at least for me), so bear with me:Brother (J) owns home where mother (H) lives, has a cheap mortgage, but would like to extract his equity for other investments.

So you need to extract what you need in 24 hours and store if the short video coverage is not enough (only limitation which has not been an issue so far). 

Around 50% of my purchases have infinite ROI because I was able to extract 100% of my investment.
