OMG you are my old landlord! Great Job Matt!!!
Thanks! Hope you are well!!
@@DeRosaGroup Yes, I am. Thank you, years ago I really needed a place and you gave me a chance. You have no clue how much that meant to me and my family.
My girlfriend and I own a 4 units, live in one of the unit. We are closing on the 4 units next in a few weeks.
Same vision, thank you for sharing.

there are a million ways to do real estate and here is a perfect example of one. buy up streets, buy up neighborhoods. I see alot of this in texas currently, where a owner sells multiple duplexes and fourplexes on one street. Its a great way to start. I think if you go owner occupied and move every year you could have low downpayment mortgages, but investors and lines of business credit is a faster route to get there. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks Erica! Its a great way to leverage your investment. It also allows you to control the quality of the block which will in turn raise tenant happiness and longevity!
There is another big advantage to "Residential" or Home Mortgages: Interest Rates are still historically low, and with a Residential Mortgage, one can get the Rates locked in for 15 - 30 Years. (If possible, it is better to pay off debt sooner). On the other hand, I am finding Commercial Loans might be amortized in 25 years, but they come due in 5 - 10 years. Which requires that the debt be either paid off or refinanced again after 5 or 10 years.
what is your Net Worth?
Ericka Williams 一
Ericka Williams it’s a great strategy.
Thank you, this Vlog was exactly what I needed. I’m a little guy looking for my next property and this video taught me, reminded me, to be patient and that a good deal isn’t necessarily a big deal.
So glad you got that, it was the intention of the vid!
hey great video. I'm getting out of prison soon and have plans to start a real estate business with a great friend of mine who's getting out sooner than I. stories like yours really inspire me. thanks and keep that entrepreneur spirit alive. God bless
It’s been a year could you update us, are you ok ?
You had TH-cam in prison?
@@Chris-uo3rj that’s what I was thinking like wtf guys in prison are out here surfing the web and watching TH-cam
Investment in crypto and stock has become very profitable, and very good options in securing a better financial life that's where i belong and survive from.
I bought an 8 plex....3 years later, I took a couple hundred thousand out on a refi, I then bought a 15 unit building. In 4 years I will take money out and buy another and will keep this routine going until I have 60 or more. I'd love to someday own a large 200 unit complex.....what a day that will be!
T McGe how much did you have to put down to get the & plex? And what was your credit score at the time when you got it? If you don't mind aharing
I bought an 8 plex 3 years ago, next year I plan to buy a 12 plex or larger! My goal is 40 units.....when I get there, I'll buy another 40. Good Luck folks and have fun!
T McGe keep it up! I’m 18 and in real state school. Was wholesaling but i’d rather be an agent. I’m saving up capital to buy homes in memphis to rehab and collect rent on. I just got credit and i’m learning about the different financing on loans for real estate. My goal is to own over 100+ units by 30
T McGe
How much are you neting per year??
You're already a success. First you build it in the mind. Then it will follow in the physical
Extra hint. Look also into making friends in Thailand Costa rica. South america. Places out side the u.s where you can buy and build on land for a fraction of what it costs here and air bnb it *wink
What's 8plex 8 rooms or ?
I don't understand why people sell units if they are making them money? why not hold it and keep the cash coming in? Can't you just hire a property management company if you don't wanna do the work. I don't get it?
grnLogic perhaps the proceeds go to fund a bigger more profitable project or maybe they want to downsize their portfolio
Crash is coming
Because of the economies of scale. If I have one property with 100 units, it is cheaper to manage than 10 properties with 10 units a piece.
If I have a 100 unit building, I can upgrade the lobby, laundry and party room and all 100 tenants can benefit, If I had ten small properties, I would have to do ten upgrades to get the same effect.
I'd have ten property tax bills, ten roofs to fix, ten parking spots to fix, ten lawns to cut.
This i for the others who posted here:
It may all seem unachievable to some, but it isn't.
People such as the gentleman so kind to make us all this video need money to get the deals. They will typically approach a lender for the money. The lender gets money from a syndicate where each individual pools their money to meet the borrower's requirements. This is where people with less money can get in on an investment of a better quality.
Once you reinvest the returns, you may come to a point where you have enough cash for a down payment and you become the borrower and buy a small triplex. The other option is to stay in a group and buy a bigger and more cost efficient property with a Joint Venture. Advantages are you can join multiple JVs and spread out the risk with the same money that you would have to go it alone.
Also, always buy the best quality asset you can afford. The bigger and better ones pay more.
Currently we are selling a 10 structure 126 unit property which was a JV. I now have enough money to go 1031 and buy my own property, or we can all stay together and use the capital gains and equity to buy a larger property. I went from the low man on the totem pole to the middle of the pack in 4 years by funding private mortgages for the people like the poster and then putting into JVs.
If folks are sitting at home comfortably and sleeping peacefully every night, you might be playing it too easy and this is why your investments don't return what you would like.
There was a time when I put down less than $30K on an investment and I felt sick for half a day. Now? No feelings. If the numbers work, let me in there.
Todd, what do you think about buying 2-3 single family homes out of state and hiring a prop management? I thought about spending 150k cash in Florida on 3 homes. Thoughts?
Ok, just remember this is my opinion based on what I know.
I always ask "How much do I get for the garage, the front yard and the back yard". The answer is "nothing". So I don't want to pay taxes or upkeep for un-rentable spaces.
There seems to be some pride in owning multiple homes when the subject comes up, but if I could own a cardboard box that people rent out, for more money, I am not ashamed to own the cardboard box, I just want the money.
Going back to my original example, I stand by that it would cost less insurance and less maintenance to buy a single multi tenant structure.
These structures were made to be rented and can be more efficient due to sharing assets. I have seen a 12 plex share a washer and dryer (pay ones of course). That can't be done at three addresses.
Also, who would you be expecting to rent to? Unfortunately large areas like whole or half houses are rented by families. Unfortunately families have kids and other habits which cause some issues.
1. They spend their monies on experiences for the kids and kids burn money as they grow up quickly. If one parent loses their job, they probably won't be able to pay you, and you can't toss them out. Single parents? You can draw your own conclusion.
2. Destruction. A lot of parents, as of late, let their kid do whatever they want, which can damage the property or limit other tenants ability to enjoy their home time. This is not exclusive to duplexes, but a single person doesn't usually need to rent a whole basement or upper floor.
3. The more free space you provide (garage, basement), the more junk they will bring, Broken cars, broken furniture, kids toys.
It is not impossible, but difficult to find a family to treat your house as their own.
Florida? Wow. People have been saying Florida for decades. The rule is when kids are talking about it in the sandbox, don't bother. Insurance will be high because of the hurricane season. You don't have to file a claim to get high insurance, you just get charged it because others have and they want their money back without scaring off clients. So squeeze everybody.
Management? If you are out of state, you will need local tax/law experts because laws/ tax rules do not always cross state lines. Then you need a trustworthy management and I have heard many horror stories of people who went to Florida and found their house in ruins, a non existent management, and tenants that are far off from the intended target.
You need to know the demographics of the area. How the area makes their money. The rents in similar structures as well as insurance. Maintenance costs of the type of structure, local taxation and preferably projected economy of the area. New office towers going up/Amazon coming soon etc.
There seems to be a mass exodus from California where people are selling their overpriced homes and settling in states that cost less to live in. Might I suggest you find out which states they are and which one has natural resources/strong industry to make sure tenants can pay.
A good indicator is who recovered first from the 2009 economy slump, who has reasonable real estate pricing, who has low operational costs.
I would rather make more and give it to a better property management and sleep better at night, then trust a guy who gives me a great price, but knows nothing other than to replace a toilet gasket and a light bulb. Better property management companies also have licensed professionals and not someone's brother who is out of work.
I always say, buy the biggest and best asset you can afford because they have a higher efficiency due to the economies of scale.if you had 4 houses, where would you go next? A twelve plex? If so then why spend the years working up to it if you already know where you want to be? Do it now.
Partnering in an LLC is another way to get into a better asset. last nights meeting suggests an annualized rate of return for me of 31% in an LLC.
That's $46500 annually for you after everything is paid with your $150k investment. Everything went better than expected, but not smoothly. Management fixed all the issues and was also managing our goals, not just the asset.
1031 exchange and take your 380K and do it again, on a larger scale or refi the money out and acquire another asset.
Key word: Vision. It's not going to happen by accident. Vision accompanied with action equals success.
You're awesome Matt! Thank you for all of your insights.
I really want to get into multi rentals to add to my single rentals.Thanks for Sharing!
I have always heard..buy, reno, rent, refinance, repeat. But no one clearly defines the refinance part of the equation. are you talking about a cash out refi to stockpile cash for the next one or just refi-ing to lower the interest rate of a hard money original loan?
Jesse Peters both, whatever makes sense.
If you are going to repeat the process, you'll most likely want to refi all or most of your cash out so you can put it into the next deal. As long as you keep pulling your money out, you won't run out.
Wow 😮 love your strategy, that video really lift me up today and my goals, I’m studying to get my real estate license in New York, but I live in Nj
I’m biggest is to be an Investor just like you, lol my gf and I are working to invert in the future. We are working on our credit now, we both an our 20’s.
Great job and I’ve been followed BiggerPockets for a few months now, “ wow” I learned so much from it. I just Subscribed to your channel and a 👍🏾
1031 exchange, i have never heard this term till now ty
In order to do that you need a lot of cement, two x fours and shingles.
Or a 1031 exchange and a business plan
Matt, curious to your "cash out strategy". Are you left now with a huge capital gains tax or are you "cashing out" but still bypassing uncle Sam with another 1031?
This video would be more helpful if you could break down how you structured the deal with partners, what percentage was your profit, and did you just keep getting approved for mortgage after mortgage? We all would like to buy building after building on the same block. We get the 'why', but everyone glosses over the 'how'.
Really liked the information in this video. Gave me a general idea of how acquiring 20 units can happen. I am 21 thinking of starting in the real estate business very soon.
Great opinion. Easy to follow and understand. I wish I would have started earlier, but it’s never too late. Dont want to be the richest dad in the neighbor, but one that sets his children with funds to go to college and take them on yearly vacations.
Valuable content here. Thank you!
ok!! Let's say all the investments in this street are as you're saying! And you posted this video in July, 2015; and the last unit you bought was a year and a half from the selling date. Let's say you published this video after a year from the actual date you filmed it (the sale date), then somehow the story of 1/4 value of the last purchase becomes surrealistic since this makes the date of the purchase between 2013 and 2014!!! I can not remember any ression by this period! But I might be mistaken, I only got confused!
But overall, I liked the story! Thanks for sharing.
How much did you pay for the units? And how much are you selling...that's the most important info that we would like to know thx.
I'm going to get this duplex to live basically rent free, then start my own a profitable business and have real-estate on the side. That way I can have more cash for the properties instead of using credit.
Great portfolio build! We do that specifically but only with SFRs (Single Family Residence) in Austin, Texas. Keep it up!
Congratulations to you and your wife .
Thank you!!!
I am a 27 year old single father raising my son on my own and I find it so intriguing the possibility of making an income from real estate. I hate having a daycare raise my child because of of long 60hour work weeks. I currently own my home but would like to start acquiring rental properties. Do you have any suggestions on how I could get started?
It would be nice if you could make a video on what a class A, B, C, D apartment complex properties are and what features go into them? What is Section 42 housing and the difference between Market and section 8 housing? Hotels are rated on a 5 or even a 7 star rating. Depending on the amenities are depends on the star rating. I have been told that a 5 star hotel has to have a minim or 2 restaurants and they have to have a pool & hot tub, 24/7 Valet & Room Service etc. Is there a minim square footage for each type of apartment complex and for example if one apartment complex had 2 or more elevators a Pool/Hot Tub, Fireplace in the living room and master bed in each unite, Back-Up Generator that could operate the entire apartment complex 24/7 on one tank of fuel for at least 7 day's straight vs a place that may have back up power but it may operate one or two lights in the haul and the elevator but not the apartments themselves. Can you explain the differences and maybe walk through different types of apartment complexes and show the condition and the different amenities are and the minims and the numbers on how they are classed?
so u started with the exchange and kept adding on from there.
Person 1: Hey, what do you want to do for our first date?
Person 2: Buy an apartment building.
That's about right
Very inspirational. I’ve been looking for 16 or more units but haven’t found “the one” yet. Would appreciate knowing more about multi family.
Hi ExplorerLink! Thank you so much for the support with our channel! I would reccomed the Biggerpockets bootcamp! It covers every stage of multi family acquisitions and what mistakes to avoid etc. Watch the intro video here and learn more. Keep in mind registration was extended and will close by tonight! get.biggerpockets.com/multifamily-fallbootcamp-fall22-derosa/
Can one sell his or her private home and do a 1031 exchange to buy an apartment complex for investment not to live in it?
No need, you can keep the proceeds on the sale of your private home, up to 500k if you are married. Talk to a CPA about it
I currently own a duplex in KY and would like to do what you've done. Did you leverage the duplex to buy the other duplex. When did you bring on other investors?
Great job Matt!!!! Keep it going man!!!! We are on a similar path!!!

Thanks Kevin!
Have you bought another rental property sence then?
Absolutely. We are constantly buying. Check out the TH-cam channel to see more deals we did. most recently we bought a 49 unit, there is a recent video about it
Omg irl monopoly I love it!
Yes!!
Great video. Good luck with your real estate ventures.
Love this video! I am looking to buy a duplex in the next year, and I'm getting married at the end of this year. Thankfully we both have good money habits - but we do have a fair amount of student loans. I want us to be in a much better financial place than our parents our in, and I know we have to start making good decisions now.
Idk if you're still checking this video - but did you ever live in one your units or did you own a separate property the entire time you managed them?
So glad to hear, Dave. We bought our first property (a duplex) when we were in our mid 20's - and just about to get married as well! Starting young is a great thing to do. Just keep studying and learning!!! Hope our videos on our channel are helpful. If you have a specific question you want want answered, please email us at helpme@derosagroup.com. Every Monday we answer questions from our subscribers about real estate investing!!! :)
can u talk more about what you looked for when initialy picking your first multifamily to start your portfolio.
thanks.
Loved your strategy and your detailed responses to all of the questions in the comment section. I’m subbing to your channel
Debt is a double edged sword. You showed it respect by paying it down. Good move.
CTLawInfo thanks! I agree, debt is a great tool but will burn you if you don't pay it off. also that principal reduction is a great wealth builder over time.
Hey Matt, been reading your and Liz's blogs on biggerpockets.
wannawatchu66 thanks!!
Thanks for sharing...my family has been in the Real Estate Business since the 1950's. A 4-Family that was handed down through marriage to my grandmother and my mother. Unfortunetly, do to my mother's illness, my brother has power of attorney and do to nursing home cost will just sell it now just to get them off his back. We are sick about it. Your good information has been helpful. I will steer him to your website...
where do you find a row of quadplexes? I can't even find one single decent deal
Hi matt , you make a great point! My take on that is always keep your options open, which is a great way to look at things.
not sure about the 1030 as im in canada but im sure we have something similar, i'll look into it and get back to you on that as you may have others who maybe asking the same questions
if you have the cash to buy 2 duplexes, do you buy in cash or get a mortgage and get 3?
Tom money is cheap right noe, go for the financing and buy 3!
Yes very helpful thank you. I did notice just calling around to different local banks they have different guidelines and qualifications for loans. However when it comes to home loans they all seem to stay true to the Fannie Ma guidelines. I will keep searching tho thanks.
Great Info. I would like to know how bringing in and investor with you on these properties works? Do they have a % of the ownership in the buildings or do you just use their capital and pay them back their capital plus a % at some point?
Thanks in advance for the information!
Hey Curtis! They have a percent ownership of the building, which gives them a percent of the profits, appreciation, and equity build up through mortgage paydown. We pay out profits quarterly on cash flow. Here is an article and video I did on entity structure on Bigger Pockets not too long ago. You can find a lot of great information on deal syndication on Bigger Pockets, you should check it out

@@DeRosaGroup hi I can't play the video?
my dad declared bankruptcy years ago and we are now finalizing his will. his 3 kids are looking at over 100K each (according to him). i plan to invest most of it and possibly get into real estate.
i saw a famous house flipper on facebooka nd then looked into his programs. then i found another guy who is much cheaper. then i found the Bigger Pockets website where people say the website is better than the program. so i'll have to spend time there first i suppose.
Avoid the high fee "guru's" if you can! You are better off networking locally and online through Bigger Pockets.
i agree. thousands of people doing the same thing can't be good.
Very thoughtful advice, thanks for share your advice and experiences. Best of luck on your future endeavors.
Awesome Video, thanks for uploading this!!
I know this an old video and I really don't know your channel, but could you make a video on the specifics of FINANCING these things? I have one unit (a real beauty) and would love to expand, but the jackasses at JPM don't trust me to make it a going concern and won't even accept the income from the current unit as my income for additional mortgage purposes until I've had it for THREE YEARS. Exactly where did/do you get the requisite funds to pull something like this off? Edit: yeah, shame on me for not doing my research and going with JPM in the first place.
Thanks and that camera rules!
Glad you enjoyed!!
You mentioned having to bring in other investors. Why? How? Tips on locating?
I like the "increased the rent" part.
Value Add, make upgrades like new kitchens, bathrooms, better living conditions and charge for them in new rents.
went to your website, it's all just options to buy books and hats. what happened to the free book?
I'm 24. How old were you and your gf when ya'll bought your first piece of property. And how much was the down payment?
Thanks in advance
What a great story! My question is how does the current market effect this type of investment. With real estate being so expensive in the current market, is it still worth spending the outrageous prices to rent out for investments? I realize its a question and answer with many potential variables. I would greatly appreciate some advice. Thank in advance.
Hey Matt, What steps do I take to make a legal 3 family into 4? The Zoning is currently an R3 Residential and the property taxes are currently at a commercial rate
Start with talking to the zoning officer in the town. It could be as of right, meaning in to convert now. They can tell you the process to get it rezoned if necessary.
I'm really interested in this form of real estate. It's just about the taxes that has gotten me all confused. Why 1031 exchange?
Congrats on your success and selling! I would like to have a property manager manage the buildings when it comes time to do so. Any suggestions on doing that with 2-4 unit buildings?
Sure, you can find a pm that charges a flat rate for smaller multi
Thank you. This was very informative.
I saw this apartment deal advertised on comercial real estate website good luck, from those pics they look really nice inside 👍👍
That's actually the new owner trying to flip it, not us lol
Nice. That’s how I got started. Great video
This is amazing, i am 20
Years old with no credit ; im just a full time student in Texas. I am interested in creating assets, what do you recommend for me to do? Should i work and save money for a downpayment? Or just keep learning more? Im interested more in duplex/apartments rather than houses.
Hey Misael - first, you need to get that credit repaired if you want to own real estate yourself without bringing in a partner. Yes you should work and save money and consider doing some Wholesales to raise capital also. There are some videos on this site dedicated to College Students, so check those out and all the Mentorship Monday series. Also take a look on Bigger Pockets you can find great info there also.

I would definitely like to get into something like this

I live in Northern California. Prices for a duplex range from 550k to 900k. Cap rates are ok, about 6%. There are some cheaper units about an hour north of us but not by much. I qualify for appx 400k from FHA. should i buy a one unit home first or go duplex? If i cant purchase a duplex what do i do? I have been told to find a "rich uncle" but dont know how long before i pay him back what i borrowed. Just lost, any suggestions?
+NAKGL66 Hi Nak - there are a bunch of options out there, I would have to know more about it to give real advise. Your best shot is to get eduated first. Head out to Bigger Pockets, it's free. Look us up, here's the link to the company founder, Matt Faircloth. www.biggerpockets.com/users/mfaircloth
See you out there!!
Be careful with "Cap Rates", especially around 5 or 6, because unless you have a good way to grow the income of the property... you will probably not see an escalation in the value. In Commercial Units, it is primarily the income, which is what determines the value - aka Cap Rates. So try to buy properties that you have a road map to increase the rents quickly, so you can also build equity quickly.
Great stuff! If you'd start over again with what you know today.... What would you have started to buy? Single family, duplex, 4 or 6-plex or bigger?
hey Chris - If I had to start over and it was today's market, I would do fix and flips in nice areas and use those proceeds to buy small multis and single families. If I didn't own my own home already I would buy a small multi and move into it. Once I did that for a year I would use that track record to enroll investors in larger multi projects.
Not doing videos any longer? Great stuff and thank you.
Doing tons of videos, hope you subscribe and check them out!!
Just subscribed!! Thank you
love the back story about this deal! so I want to get into real estate and I intend to buy my first multi family house that has 3-6 units. i will be occupying one of the units. I know nothing about what it's going to take to maintain and manage this building bcuz I have never done anything like it before and I don't know how to do any repairs. I want my tenants to be taken care of when problems arise so I'm considering hiring a property manager, but I want to do it myself bcuz 1) I'd be living there already 2) I want to gain experience and knowledge. Can anyone offer any advice or suggestions? thx matt n derosa group for another great video!
Hey Emmy - I would stay at 4 units or less because you can obtain better financing (low money down for owner occupants) at that size. Also manage it yourself. You will figure it out as you go. Use www.BiggerPockets.com as a resource if you aren't already! Good luck!
emmy tones multi units for your first is very risky. You should start with a single unit or even juat rent out a room in your home to get a feel for management. Youd also better know your local landlord / tenant laws. I think multi unit is nit a good idea for an inexperienced investor. Make mistakes on a smaller scale. Start small.
Thanks for sharing and congratulations!
I hate to complain but the wind noise kills if your viewers are using headphones.
Great story i hope you make tons of cash from your sale , sales
Hi! So my question is, is there a way to buy in Texas while living in New York. Because, Im living in Texas right now where there are very good deals but I might move to New York in few years for an important projetc...
Paracle7 of course, many people invest in states they don't live in. Your biggest task will be to find a solid local property manager you can rely on. Do that while you live there so you can inspect them locally.
Im just getting into real-estate ..... whats the best way to attack wholesaling ?
Did not watch. How did you do it? Section 8
Which is easier to sell a 4-unit or a 20 unit? There's more investors and more financing options.for a 4-unit vs. 1 20-unit building
Colorado Loan Pro you are correct the financing is better for 4 units, and they are cheaper so there are more buyers for that property size. the buyers for 20 units are less but you can sell properties of this size for higher per unit in today's market.
10-31 Exchange....🤔🤔🤔 I'll look into that. Please share some of your leasing strategies. Thanks, in advance!
Good! Glad you liked it. There is a ton of info on leasing and 1031 on this channel!
This is very inspiring. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks for commenting and watching! Glad it inspired you!! :)
How do you find investors to go in with you ? Also how do you purchase so many without paying one off first? Banks will still give you Loans on different houses even though you have a few out on other mortgages?
Multifamily loans are considered commercial real estate loans. They are different from residential loans in that they base the loan on the cashflow of the property as long as you can put 20-25% down. If the numbers are good such that you can easily afford the loan, have good credit and can afford the down payment with a little bit of cash reserves, you will get it financed regardless of how many other properties you own. Some lenders do limit the you though if you appear over extended.

Hi Matt,
l have a daughter in Howard University and l am looking for a house to buy around the school so l would rent it to her and her friends. Can you help me with any ideas. The houses around that area are so highly priced.
Thank you.
It remains my dream to own multiunit dwelling's. However, as you know, the market in California is tough. What suggestions would you give me as I start to locate and save for one?
The Vita Family set some goals with realistic time lines, find a market that works for you maybe a market that you have some local legs that can help you manage the building.
congratulations good information
Thanks for the information. Everything was explained in layman's terms, which was easy to understand. I used to work, whereas, I was responsible for locating people's addresses, & I would come across tax parcel information. But thanks to this video, I now I understand its purpose. Thanks.
I would like to know what I can do to be like you. I live in Texas and the housing market is big here with old homes.
How much is the average cost of buying 16 units
The real estate rental snow ball is powerful.
Truth! 🙌
Hey thanks for the video! My boyfriend owns 6 acres of property in Texas. We are very new to this industry. We are looking into financing a modular duplex home and starting off with that. Our plan is to survey the property by 1 acre and slowly work our way up. Any advice?
Ashley Lopez this is a good question, please email it with some more details to helpme@derosagroup.com and I will answer it on the you tube channel!
Just saw your video, I’m only 20 years old and have $40,000 saved up. How can I start investing in real estate?

great info
Thanks!
I learned a lot I didn't know about the 1030 to reinvest and not pay tax.
I'm 22 and just started learning about investing and have a couple questions.
1- Were these located downtown so you had a very good cash flow?
2-I know location/envireonment/surroundings can be a huge appreciation factor.. Do you think townhouses in the suburbs set up like this are ideal? I guess any area works just wondering your opinion, thanks :)
these were actually in the suburbs. Location does matter, but it's not a downtown / suburb thing. what matters is proximity to other things of value to your tenants and prospective buyers. Those things could be jobs, public transportation, waterfront, or entertainment venues.
Thanks for the reply! Those factors are important and thanks for mentioning them. Are you moving on to invest into commerical properties now?
any residential property over 5 units is commercial
Awesome insight.
8 units are shared with investors, right? What percentage do you own on these 8 units?
We sold them already, but when we owned them we had around 30 percent ownership of those units
