What Makes Long Island Real Estate a No-Brainer for Investors

In July of 2017, Long Island housing prices rose to a record high. Median sale prices reached $505,000 in Nassau County. Long Island has always been home to the most expensive real estate market in the country, but these new peak prices make investment in the market more lucrative than ever, especially when we factor in an abundance of high-margin foreclosures and short sales.

The Long Island home market is booming with high-values and quick sales — But it takes hands-on expertise to win, and catching the big profits on Long Island requires a deep understanding of this unique market.

Here’s why most Long Island flippers fail, and how we continue to win…

  • Inexperience: Most flippers jump into the game without the ability to accurately size up a property. One oversight can destroy a project and gobble up your profits — Long Island housing has crucial nuances in everything from school districts, to utilities, to zoning, to insurance, build history, taxes, and everything in between. Our 35 years of experience as Long Island residents and home builders lets us size up a project with unmatched accuracy. No surprises, no headaches, fast turnaround…
  • Outsourcing: Relying on 3rd parties adds complication, wasted time, and more lost profits. Being a full-service operation means huge profits for us. We are 100% in-house - from leads, to construction, to sale. Our competitors can’t even come close…
  • Slow Turnaround: Both of the above leave them no choice but to use second-rate realtors. We own and operate the most successful private real estate firm on Long Island — Better Homes & Gardens Real Estate — with the top agents and brokers in the area on our team, and buyers lined up waiting to work with us…
  • This small army of seasoned pros is what allows us to offer our investors returns 2 and even 3 times higher than you could get elsewhere — In a super high-value market like this, that means huge profits and endless opportunities.

    We are always open to hearing from investors eager to cash in on the Long Island market — No matter where you’re located or what level you’re at, we probably have a project to suit you. Reach out and let’s talk!
