Happy to connect if you have any questions or just want to talk real estate!

I just want to compare the real estate and stock market investment.

Sometimes folks overlook how real prce apprecation can be impacted by having acreage that’s not typical in suburban areas.In Phoenix, where I’m based, a lot of us collaborate with local probate attorneys who know about hidden opportunities that never see the open market.

Real numbers- purchase 907k,rehab , closing costs, soft costs, 840k, all in 1.747 mil, basis for each unit should be roughly 291kappraisal of each unit minimum 400k , so 2.4 mil if for all 6.I might refi only 4 out of 6, that will cover initial loan amount.
