BRRRR Strategy in Tucson

What’s up BP! My team is finishing a project in Tucson for another out of state investor. Leave a comment with your questions or thoughts. I am passionate about helping others learn how to build wealth through real estate, let me know if there is anything I can do to help you on your real estate journey.

Now onto the project! We were able to pick this project up off the MLS, Tucson is a competitive market, being able to act quickly and efficiently is the difference between doing the deal and missing out on the opportunity. Shortly after this deal hit the MLS we had a cash offer that was quickly accepted. We then assigned the property to an out of state investor that we have worked with before. (if you would like to learn more about how we find, and track off-market deals check out https://www.biggerpockets.com/forums/311/topics/556219-flip-in-the-historical-district-of-downtown-tucson )

Once under contract, our construction team put together a comprehensive estimate for the remodel and our investment team began running a financial analysis and a market CMA. The net to the investor is after the wholesaling fee, project management fee and real estate closing costs. The investor's initial plan was to flip this property, however, because of the changing area he was also interested in a BRRRR model and holding as a rental. We began marketing the property as a fully renovated rental once the foundation for the new addition was poured. Our management team was able to get the property leased for August while the home is still being built! The project should be complete in July, at which time the investor will perform a cashout refi leave just over $25,000 invested in this project. He will have strong rental cashflow and substantial equity gain from the forced appreciation as well as neighborhood growth and increased demand. I will update the post with pictures of the finished project.

 Project Break Down:
1.Before: 2 beds 1 bath house
2. After: 5 beds 3 baths house 
3. Added 1200sqft
4. Highly appreciating area
5. Large Patio for Entertaining
6. Large living room
7. Rent for $2,300mo

There is a substantial amount of growth going on in Tucson right now, causing rapid appreciation. Culinary Dropout and Orange Theory Fitness are opening right down the street from this project. Along with the expansion of Grant Road, we predict that homes in this area are going to increase in value, rapidly.

    Looking good. Thanks for providing all the data and numbers. I am in the process of doing a few BRRRR projects. Looking at lower end stick-builts and mobiles on land here in SC. I already have cash investors lined up, just taking care of some last minute details with a local bank or two.

    My strategy is using private lenders to fund the deal, then refi through banks.  If you use private lenders (not HM lenders), what interest rate are you paying lenders these days?

    @Dave Rav We are not currently using private lenders. In my experience the interest rates for PL vary, I have seen between 12-14% and as low as 8% for experienced investors.

     Figured it had gone up, secondary to stocks and all paper investments yielding higher returns recently.  Historically, I have paid PLs between 6-10%.  Talking years 2010-2015.  Once I paid 14% because I was desperate and wanted to avoid HM.  Thanks
