Real Estate Investor · Abu Dhabi, UAE


Hi,
I am an individual cash investor looking to increase my long term rental portfolio and am planning to purchase 6-10 properties per year over the next few years.

Key criteria:

1. SFH or MFH
2. Under $35,000. (Can go higher if the deal is right)
3. Location immaterial but no War Zones
4. Meets minimum 2% criteria
5. No more than 70% Market Value

Preference is for turn-key properties that are rented with property management in place.

I would also consider a larger package with the right owner financing.

I am the end buyer and can settle quickly for the right deal.

If you think you might have what i'm looking for, either post details in this thread or email me.

Thanks

Hi Warren,

Do you have a geographical preference?

Taliah,

No geographical preference.

In my farm area(s) 35k per property is border line on too low to get anything worth renting. Even when purchasing at 60% market value. Properties acquired between 20-40 need about 10-20 to make them rentable. The rental I just purchased at sheriff sale was listed for 70k before foreclosure. I paid 37 & will put 6k before renting. Expected cash on cash return should be good. But from what what you need, I don't see how it would be profitable for me to pass something like this off.


Real Estate Investor · Abu Dhabi, UAE


Mark,

I agree that my criteria is but a pipe dream in many areas and I'm not holding my breath for rentals in California or NY :)

That being said, there are plenty of areas now that do meet my criteria, I just have to be prepared for none to little appreciation.

Regardless, I appreciate you taking the time to comment.

Hi Warren,

We are in the process of acquiring a 2 bedroom, 2 bath in Greensboro, NC. It is about 10 minutes from the local university. It has some updates done already but needs an additional 5k-7k of work to be in rental shape. We are asking 30k, rent from a Section 8 tenant would be around $550. Please let me know if this is something you are interested in.

Real Estate Investor · San Diego, California


Warren,

I own three SFHs free and clear. I will sell them to you to meet the 2% rule. They are all rented with property managment in place.

1. 5186 Country Ridge Drive, Sharpsburg, NC 27878 (Manufactured Home)
Purchase Price $27,500 Rent $550
2. 149 Dahlia Avenue, Atlanta, GA 30314 (SFH)
Purchase Price $29,750 Rent $595
3. 2145 Hollywood Drive, unit B, Atlanta GA 30318 (Townhome) Purchase Price $70,150 Rent $1403

I will owner finance them with 50% down. I will also take them back from you if you do not want them and give you the back your original purchase price. I give you this kind of assurance because I know the properties will perform. I am also offering this to you, because I can get better returns with the money in multiplexes and apartments in the current market. And I am working on such deals right now.
