Anthony Gayle

Real estate investor based in Fairfield County, CT. 20 years in commercial and residential architecture and construction. I run George Street Consulting Services (GeorgeStreet-cs.com), where I provide architectural project management, design, and construction consulting, and Elya Group (elyagroup.co), focused on business advisory and digital solutions. My construction background gives me a different perspective when evaluating investments. I look at building condition, layout, operating costs, potential improvements, and long-term value, not just the numbers on paper. U.S. Army combat veteran, which is how I ended up in my first VA house hack. I own and manage residential rental property, and I partnered with family on a mixed-use building, four residential units and one commercial space, that I actively manage. Tenant operations, maintenance, commercial leasing, all of it hands-on. I also work with contractors who flip. I run numbers on their deals and handle design and layout work on the rehabs, which means I see a lot of projects I don't own and a lot of ways the same property pencils differently depending on the exit. That's why I built Plurivia (plurivia.com). I got tired of rebuilding the same spreadsheet every time a deal came across my desk. It runs one property as a flip, a rental, and a BRRRR side by side, across cash, conventional, FHA, VA, DSCR, and hard money, so I can see what my out is before I commit instead of after. It's free and in beta. If you run something real through it and find where it breaks or what's missing, that's worth more to me than compliments. If you're looking at a deal and the question is whether you can add a unit, whether the layout works, or what the rehab is really going to cost, that's the conversation I'm most useful in.
