Looking to up your real estate investing game and venture into apartments?


Have you always wondered how investors are acquiring 100+ unit properties?

Did you know that on some apartments, you can put 20% down, finance in the renovations, and often get a non-recourse loan?

Did you know that in some areas, apartment units are going for between $30,000 - $60,000 a unit?

This month is all about apartment complexes, and we'll cover everything from 5 units to 100+.

Elisa Zhang has been investing since 2009, she owns 24 units in King & Pierce Counties, and has passively invested in over 600 units and has syndicated over 200 units.

Elisa is going to share on how she finds & analyzes apartment complexes locally, and out of state.

Joe Whitesel, President & Founder of Northwest Commercial lending is going to share about he can finance your commercial loans. He can handle anything from $150,000 to $10 million +.

We'll also be sharing a few recent apartment acquisitions from group members so that you can get an idea what kinds of deals are out there.

Feel free to bring your friends, significant other and co-workers!

Post: Remodeled Cash Flowing Duplex With Commercial Zoning Arlington WA

Great opportunity to purchase a remodeled cash flowing duplex with the ability to develop into a multi-unit/mixed use property in old town business district 3 zoning. 

Located directly across from the centennial trail in desirable Arlington WA, and within walking distance to shopping and restaurants, this property is a great rental with tenants in place and room to add value. 

Both units are 2 beds 1 bath with laundry in units, and have brand new carpet and new interior paint. There are two detached outbuildings, could be rented out separate.

The duplex sits on 4 lots, and per the City of Arlington mixed use with retail and apartments above is allowed, or you could likely build up to 6 townhouse style units. Sewer is on both streets, lots are flat, would be an easy build. 

MLS: 1331567

Due to popular demand on this topic, we are dedicating an entire meet up to discuss the supported living program.

Brian Smith, COO of the Volunteers of America will be speaking at this meet up, and sharing from the provider's perspective about the supported living program.

The benefits to the landlord include: Long term tenants that stay between 10 - 15 years, all utilities are paid for (even with multi-units) in the program, turn over expenses are eliminated due to the long term tenants, and vacancies are covered by the provider. Each tenant also receives up to $12,000 in property modification funds should the property require ramps, hard surface flooring, grab bars, etc. In some cases, having supported living tenants increases your cash flow by 30% or more!

You'll have the opportunity to ask Brian questions, and learn more about their housing needs.

There is a growing demand for additional housing units for these tenants, and if you own properties, this is a meet up you need to attend!

Scott has been investing for three years, and in that time he has acquired 21 rental units while working full time as director of Amazon Pickup.

@Bryan Easdon pull the county or city zoning maps and give those to your agents. Most municipalities have a zoning map online, and then all the agent has to do is draw their own map in the MLS. It's super easy.

@Aditya Veluri Welcome to BP! 

The majority of my portfolio is North of Seattle (mostly Snohomish County and 2 duplexes in Skagit) and you're right, most of the time the numbers just don't make sense. It's rare, but occasionally you can find a value add play where you'd be buying into a property with much lower than market rents where you have to do a renovation in order to get higher rents, and then you can get the 1% rule. But that takes a lot of effort.

I'm focusing on Spokane, Oklahoma City and Indianapolis. 1% rule is pretty standard on most properties in these areas, and there is still room for a value add where you can get 1.5% or higher. 

Dallas is tough due to high taxes & insurance rates, Memphis has a declining population and high crime but you should really check out other midwest cities with strong population growth and low taxes/insurance/crime rates.

Hope this helps!
