Most listing agents require you to walk the property PRIOR to submitting a LETTER OF INTENT for purchase.

ASK MIKE MONDAYS - Can you unveil some common misconceptions when purchasing apartments? Should I consider owner financing? Should I send 'I want to buy your apartment' letters to the seller? Does that really work? Can you wholesale multifamily proper Jul 29, 2018

Episode 144 - Get Smart - 3rd Quarter Loan Officer Roundtable Jul 27, 2018

Show notes

Your lender brings a huge amount of capital to your transaction. They are a critical member of your success team. You need to understand what's important to the lender and how they will structure your loan. In today's podcast, we sit down with a few team members of Old Capital and discuss what's new in the capital markets and what you need to know. Items discussed: 1. Fannie Mae Pricing Waivers- for the last few years, Fannie has been generous in reducing their posted interest rates to good clients. Today, Fannie Mae is not too anxious to offer lower interest rates to new and inexperienced borrowers at the highest loan leverage.

2. Term Sheets vs. Final Loan Commitment- Some lenders are not fully underwriting the loan transaction upfront and issuing false term sheets. They propose loan terms that are not even close to what the final loan commitment will eventually be. Don't fall for that, always ask for your lenders underwriting analysis upfront and find out how they view the transaction. Fannie's underwriting criteria is pretty much the same from DUS lender to DUS lender…so term sheets should be very similar. If not, then look into their underwriting.

3.During the loan process, be prepared to bring in additional equity if the seller does not increase the property's NOI. Unfortunately, many sellers don't realize that the buyer's lender needs to see positive NOI during the loan process. Do not have the seller take their foot or the buyer will need to bring in additional equity to close.

4.Always ask for the sellers 5 YEARS- INSURANCE LOSS RUN upfront before you go hard with earnest money. You need to find out if the seller has filed any insurance claims against the subject property. One claim should not increase premiums…but several claims can push up insurance premiums and will reduce your loan amount significantly.

ASK MIKE MONDAYS - I am under contract and buying an apartment building. I've been contacted by the appraiser; what do I need to know and give them? Jul 15, 2018

Show notes

A lender needs to understand the value of the collateral. Even though you paid for the appraisal, the appraiser is hired and works for the bank. They will not discuss value with the buyer until after they have completed their final report. If you meet the appraiser at the property and you mention that you are going to do some specific rehab; the appraiser will more than likely add that into their report. So…be careful in speaking to the appraiser, if you haven't confirmed those improvements. The appraiser is going to need the most updated T12 and a current rent roll. They may want to see your PROFORMA on the new property taxes and other expenses and make sure that it looks reasonable.

Episode 142 - Within 16 months, Ed Faulkner went from ZERO UNITS to 54 UNITS Jul 06, 2018

Show notes

A few years ago, Ed Faukner bought a new house for his growing family to live in. The day after they moved in…his wife informed him that she HATED the house and wanted to move. Yikes! Instead of selling they rented it out. That was his first experience with owning rental real estate. He was terrified with having someone else live in their home. After a while, he got comfortable with owning rental real estate and bought a duplex. He eventually sold it and realized a large gain. He was hooked. He wanted to buy more units. Ed wanted to start with small steps in buying rental property. With a partner, he bought a 10 unit building. He has learned a lot in a short period of time. His biggest lesson is BIGGER IS BETTER in MULTIFAMILY. He learned that economies of scale were important in multifamily. His next transaction was a much bigger property with 44 units. Ed's journey is typical of many real estate investors…he took baby steps from a single family rental , then a duplex, to a 10 unit, and now… 44 units. Could you do this?

ASK MIKE MONDAYS - Do I need a buyer's broker when acquiring an apartment building? Jul 01, 2018

Show notes

Buyer brokers are not common in multifamily. If you are fairly new into apartment investing, you should have a buyer's broker represent you. If you are a seasoned apartment buyer, buyer brokers are an extension of your team and will add value. They are out looking for specific transactions that meet your vision. As a general partner you should be focused on 1) raising new equity, 2) finding new transactions. Buyer brokers can assist you in finding the right transaction.
