You can consider liquidating or exchanging homes that may be in your portfolio which may be looming repairs or choose to use loan products or capital reserves to repair and upgrade these items.

The other reason prices go up after the IPO is because the stock becomes highly ‘liquid’.

I have an opportunity to pick up 11 single family homes from someone looking to liquidate They are all fixer uppers Anyone able to share a similar experience or story and how you went about using either hard money or leverage and how your deal went/ended up?

Great experience, purchased over 20 over the next few years... eventually liquidated most of my portfolio and switched to passive investments via private lending and syndications.

I'm in a weird position: lots of liquid assets (not quite enough to purchase outright but enough to make a significant downpayment and fund a major reno), excellent credit, but a very low income.

There might be some size constraints that make it not easily dividable (like limited road frontage, say only 100ft and your city requires a minimum lot width of 50ft, which would result in only two (2) properties [but I would still interested in splitting the land and building 2x 4 plexes instead of the 10 plex due to higher valuation, residential financing and more liquid sales potential.

Talk to your accountant about the impact of a 401K loan, stock liquidation or just using cash if you have it for the down payment. 

All 4 members also have liquid net worth in excess of the value of the land but I am not sure if banks care about net worth?

Not to cause your head to spin anymore, but your team will need a net worth, at least, equal to the loan balance, and post-loan liquidity of 10% of the loan balance (last I checked).

I have a 6 month personal emergency fund and a nice sized retirement portfolio, but since I wasn’t thinking about RE before, I don’t have a lot of liquid cash because everything above and beyond my emergency fund goes to my investments.
