With time appreciation and rent increases will produce a good return on leveraged coastal Ca cities RE.For those with a bigger pot to invest…If you do value add on residential, currently commercial residential is beaten down but non-commercial is not.  

Hello Everyone,
I am currently in the process of opening a pack-and-ship store and am seeking a suitable rental space. I have identified an ideal location, and the agent has informed me that the rent is $45 per squar...

When analyzing any property commercial or residential the only thing that matters to me is the cash on cash return and cash flow.

Commercial mortgages made to an LLC that won't require taxes or employment checks.

I was of the belief 5 units (triplex plus 2 ADUs) would make it commercial MF and valued on NOI and cap rate, not comps.   

Shop around: Contact multiple insurance providers that specialize in landlord insurance or commercial property insurance.

For me, although it isn't likely it is called, if it is called I risk my 2.7% interest rate for what will probably be closer to 7% for a commercial rate.What value are you getting by having your asset in an LLC that you would risk that spread on a rate?

I have seen a couple of different ones that span from single family rentals to mobile home parks and commercial real estate such as office buildings, storage builds, etc.

So I have a friend who has taken some serious steps to develop a subdivision: 100+ home sites and a few commercial properties on about 50 acres.
