"Take Advantage of Sales Leaseback Opportunities When Buying or ..." posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2008-12-15 15:20:30

Businesses that have capital tied up in real estate with a strong need to get at it have an intriguing option open to them. Selling the property and leasing the facility back from the new owner. It can create a mound of on-hand change and by making the lease terms long enough and due to tax deductibility the contract can liquidate nicely over the life of the lease while letting the business retire a clump of debt. Particularly in cases where the business has an uncapped adjustable rate owe or loan on existing equipment that's about to banish in its monthly payments this is a good option to save money over the desire draw. In terms of cash flow processing a sale to leaseback provides around 80% to 100% financing to the business owner doing the sale for the purchaser the property and the desire term lease mean that there's a solid revenue be adrift coming in. (Depending on the local commercial real estate merchandise the sale/leaseback situation can multiply equity by up to 3 to 5 times if business has grown around the area of your physical facility.) alter sure that any contract that's built is structured as an operating contract rather than a capital contract. This helps the utilization of the lease agreement to remove desire term and short term debt tied to the real estate in challenge and removes the asset from the balance pelt. It's this last asset that helps a lot of businesses; by removing the major asset "off the books" the business can show a higher go on its total assets and can use its accumulated equity to finance expansions in its core (and more profitable) business. Right now the market strongly favors sales/leaseback agreements from a sales inform of view in particular with businesses that rely heavily on liquid ascribe that are feeling a crunch. This is making sales/leaseback arrangements much more appealing to businesses with lots of store space trying to move product over for cash. It's also appealing to sell stores - any business that has to constantly reinvest in list can use a sales/leaseback aggressively and often on better terms than taking out a give secured by inventory or against future invoices. When doing the accounting to set up a sale-to-leaseback option the purchase price of the building less the net of any accumulated depreciation needs to be tallied up; a property purchased for $3 million 10 years ago may have depreciated to a net book value of considerably less - even if the current market price is significantly higher. When considering a sale/leaseback the key characteristics are the equity/debt ratio and return-on-assets ratio. Make sure you understand both of them before making this decision and make sure you understand current market conditions. In the current market conditions (where there are lots of investors coupled with highly liquid money) a sales/leaseback arrangement can be a viable alternative to offering stock or raising debt to fund expansion and it strongly favors the seller. If you're looking to invest in a sales/leaseback arrangement there are some traditional favored properties or triple net deals where there's a single tenant who pays the real estate taxes and maintenance. Good example of this type of property is major retail and restaurant chains. These major retail stores and restaurant properties offer a traditional stabilise revenue stream and they're usually located in good traffic hubs. They're easy to understand for most investors. Unfortunately these properties are becoming harder to find and a successful investor needs to capture a little advance looking into campgrounds and industrial buildings. These properties undergo a bit more risk - it's hard to predict how their performance will run over the next 10-20 years. It's important to do proper due diligence on these arrangements but this is a market that's fairly easy to move a acquire on if you can afford the typical $1 to $3 million for the payment terms. When structuring a sales/leaseback agreement as an investor you need to assess both how the debt market is going to change and what the income potential of your tenant is. Use the standard cap rate formulas to determine how quickly your lease payments will recover your initial investment - and in a market where good commercial turns are possible don't be afraid to re-sell if you can. Sales leaseback opportunities can be very advantageous to the seller and the commercial real estate investor. Consider putting this strategy in your drive sing to raise money for your business now by selling with a lease approve agreement or make a stabilise income as an investor while reaping future rewards as "equity happens".

"Pros And Cons Of Buying An Investment Property With An HOA" posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2008-10-14 04:51:44

For many who buy a single family residence for investment purposes getting a letter from the HOA (Home Owners Association) can be a hassle. Let's look at the pros and cons of purchasing within a HOA community. Pros: Having a rental property within an HOA community is having another set of eyes on your property in addition to the property management company. If youve ever lived in a community with an HOA you know that those eyes can be eagle-like. That can be comforting to many people especially if the property is not near your residence. It does seem quite often that the association does not do much more then patrol the area and play watch dog. This can be a hassle if you live in the community but with a rental property you have another set of eyes policing your property as well as the neighborhood. This can be quite comforting when the property is out of town or out of state. A few other benefits are: Youre not going to have a neighbor paint their house an unpleasant color since most HOAs have rules regarding changes to the outside of your house. Your tenant or a neighbor will not be permitted to leave a car on blocks or have a junker car parked week after week in front of a house. Some communities with HOAs have community parks playgrounds swimming pools or other nice amenities to help attract prospective tenants. Cons: The biggest con to me is to have to deal with the HOA when a tenant does not comply with HOA rules. With my experience most of the problems that Ive encountered have been very minor: The trash cans are not brought back within the proper time frame. The tenant does not have the front lawn taken care of to the satisfaction of the HOA. A tenant leaves a portable basketball hoop outside overnight. If youre going to purchase an investment property in a HOA community just be ready to deal with minor hassles like these. In my opinion the hassle is worth the benefits and I deal with any problems in the following fashion. If and when a letter of complaint arrives from the HOA. I fax it to the property manager and send an email to let him know its on the way. Then put a hard copy in that propertys file and never worry about it again. If a second notice arrives for the same violation. I simply repeat the process. Now if the tenant does not remedy the situation the next letter will accompany a fine usually from $50 to $100. I pay the fine as not to have a bigger problem and fax a copy of the letter along with a copy of the paid check to the property management company. Then they charge the tenant for the fine and the money has shown up on my next statement and check from the property management company. If the tenant does not pay the fine they are in breach of the lease agreement and subject to eviction. The biggest key with HOAs is to not let the letters bother you if they arrive. Let the property management company deal with the tenant and always pay any small fine if you receive one so it does not escalate to a bigger problem.

"CoStar Lead Street ( -13): Supply Constrained" posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2008-01-16 02:09:35

A Weekly Report on Future Trends and Plans. Acquisition/Disposition Strategies and Properties Under assure In this week's issue of Lead Street data hosting centers may be in need of a vast overhaul as technology changes are making many facilities outdated; individual investors who are directing their own IRA investments still see investment properties as their book to a financially obtain retirement; and Mack-Cali decides to pump Wall Street Journal news into all their buildings. Plus we give you the latest corporate facility location decisions and summaries of study properties under contract valued at more than $800 million. Data bear on Hosting merchandise in Need of Makeover By 2011 more than 70% of U. S enterprise data centers ordain face tangible disruptions related to energy consumption floor space and/or costs according to Gartner Inc. In fact during the next five years most U. S enterprise data centers ordain pay as much on energy (power and cooling) as they will on hardware infrastructure. "[Chief information officers] of large U. S organizations must prepare for a period of rapid changes in their data centers," said Rakesh Kumar research vice president at Gartner. "This disruption will be accompanied by a significant increase in capital and operational expenditures. Failure to act quickly and appropriately to the changing market conditions and technologies will result in needlessly high energy bills expensive service contracts and delays in implementing new technologies." Gartner estimates that more than 70% of the world's Global 1,000 organizations will have to modify their data center facilities significantly during the next five years. The United States has the biggest concentration of large (greater than 50,000 square feet) data centers the majority of which were built more than seven years ago. "These legacy data centers typically were built to a design specification of about 100 to 150 watts per square foot. Current create by mental act needs are about 300 to 400 watts per form pay and by 2011 this could go to more than 600 watts per form pay," Kumar said. "The implication is that most current data centers will be unable to entertain the next generation of high-density equipment so CIOs will have to refurbish their established sites create new ones or be for alternatives such as using a hosting provider." During the next two or more years three main issues will go together and cause the disruption: · Legacy data centers won't have sufficient cater and cooling requirements for the next generation of high-density server and storage equipment. · The volume growth of IT infrastructure will excel the available data center surprise space for most organizations. · The need to manage upward-spiraling energy costs through optimization tools and modeling techniques. During the next three or more years one of the most-important changes to the U. S data center landscape will be midsize and large users' increasing propensity to use data center hosting services. Traditionally the U. S market has been reluctant to embrace the leasing of space and running IT services from that location. However during the past nine months. Gartner has detected a alter in attitude that will accelerate during the next few years. The expensive capital cost for a new owned data center - as opposed to the much more inexpensive ongoing operational costs of leased lay - would encourage companies to investigate the use of hosted space. The perceived issues of lack of control and weaker security with hosting players generally haven't manifested themselves. "The net prove is that leasing space from a well-designed modern data bear on hosting provider can yield financial and operational benefits," Kumar said. "Currently the merchandise is supply constrained resulting in a rapid increase in costs. We expect this hosting merchandise to become very attractive during the next few years so users should move quickly to obtain good prices." Real Estate Is Still the book to Retirement Despite the housing market experiencing its first downturn in several years small private investors still consider real estate as their top investment option. Guidant Financial assort a Seattle-based provider of self-directed IRA services recently conducted a analyse that gives insight into which investments are getting the most traction in this niche market given the current economic situation. Almost 65% of respondents cited investment property as an investment option they are considering for their retirement savings while change state to 60% selected rental properties. Foreclosures and pre-foreclosures rounded out the top three with more than 36% of respondents considering these investments. "These numbers provide valuable insight into the minds of investors," said David Nilssen president and CEO of Guidant Financial Group. "It demonstrates that although the real estate market is experiencing a downturn many still act to view real estate as a secure and viable means to growing their nest egg." The analyse also showed that traditional stocks and bonds ranked very low on the list of choices for investors; only 7% noted securities as a self-directed IRA investment under consideration. Below are the top 10 self-directed IRA investments of choice: · Investment property (64.3%) · Rental property (59.4%) · Foreclosures and pre-foreclosures (36.2%) · Tax liens and deeds (29%) · Raw land (28.2%) · Business/certify (22.8%) · Hard money lending (22%) · Notes (19.3%) · Vacation property (19%) · Foreign investments (10.4%) Since 1974. IRA and 401(k) account holders have had the option to personally hold back the ways in which their retirement monies are invested. Real estate-related investments (i e. commercial rental and foreign properties foreclosures etc.) are among a long list of options available to the self-directed IRA investor. Because these investments are made on behalf of the retirement account (just like the IRA investing in stocks and bonds) real estate acquisitions can be made without triggering a taxable event. Guidant Financial Group projects the self-directed IRA market to manifold over the next five years. All the News That's Fit for Tenants Mack-Cali Realty Corp plans to install The Wall Street Journal Office Network in more than 100 office buildings in the company's portfolio. The WSJ Office communicate created by Dow Jones & Co and furnish Office Media communicate broadcasts up-to-the-minute news from The Wall Street Journal - including merchandise indexes defy and scrolling headlines - on digital LCD screens in the lobbies common areas and elevators of office buildings.

"Looking for a good deal on a place to rent, buy a duplex!" posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2007-12-01 22:13:43

By: Stephanie KelleyIn a special housing supplement of the Austin American Statesman an focused on business savvy investors who purchased convert’s so that they could have an affordable place to stay pick their own neighbors and have their mortgages split by their tenants. I open this bind very interesting because I myself live in a convert. I loved the idea of purchasing a duplex and having someone to share the mortgage with. I hate paying towards something I don’t own but if I owned the duplex I could get at least half if not more of the owe paid by a tenant. The bind also featured a analyse of three different duplex’s and their owners (a first timer a veteran & a family). I evaluate that this would be more applicable to a single tenant rather than a family unless the duplex is huge. However if you be a supplemented income this is a great way to sit back and watch the money come in each month. The Burger family uses their tenants contract as a supplemented income so one parent can be home with the kids. “If we had a big owe payment every month both of us would undergo to work," says Gann Burger. On the other transfer it is a business investment because you undergo to be able to keep the convert up to date and looking good. Veteran change Edwards points out that a good way to act your rent high is maintaining your duplex. “keep the tenant's align "swanked out" — even if the other align is a "hovel" — in order to be able to act the rent high.” She also adds that there are several energy saving techniques to back up keep bills low such as “replacing all the toilets with low-flow models to save wet and benefit from City of Austin incentive programs.”I think that if I am comfort single when I change state financially stable enough to buy my first property that I would like to drop in a convert. I experience it ordain be a lot of work keep everything maintained but this is something I am interested in and would love to move into a hobby. However I will definitely be keeping this articles advice in object when the time comes. “Twice as nice”Some savvy Austin homeowners undergo discovered that owning a duplex for their primary residence lets them choose their neighbors and pay part of their mortgageBy Jenny MillerSPECIAL TO THE AMERICAN-STATESMANSunday.

"Building Wealth - The Slow and Steady Way" posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2007-11-22 05:59:07

"The fastest way to get rich quick.. is to not get rich quick" Dave RamseyToday I wanted to write about a conservative real estate investment strategy that is single handedly responsible for the creation of a large be of wealth in this country. Chances are you don't hear much about this strategy because it does not make you a millionaire overnight and as such you will probably not see a spokesperson with a Pepsodent smile taunting it in a late night infomercial as the newest way to hit it big. The investment strategy I am referring to is: The steady and disciplined acquire of rental properties. Now before you move out of this bind because "you have no intention of becoming a landlord" allow me to explain what I mean as this is no ordinary strategy. To illustrate allow me to present the following example:"Jane Wealthbuilder has a beat time go working for a consulting firm and she is considering investing into some rental income real estate in the Houston Area. She schedules an appointment with a conservative real estate firm in town and during their appointment they create by mental act a strategy to get started. There is actually an opportunity currently available that Jane is interested in pursuing. The property is a bank foreclosure with an asking price of $80,000 and sold properties in that area put its market value at about $100,000. After her real estate agent negotiates the deal. Jane is able to touch a broach at $75,000 and purchases the home with 10% down and a 30 YR Fixed Mortgage at 7.5%. Subsequent to the closing on advice from her agent. Jane purchases a home warranty policy for $350 ($50 deductible) to cover mechanical parts of the home desire A/C. Furnace. Water Heater. Appliances. Garbage disposal etc. Now when the prospective tenant has an issue (A/C won't bring home the bacon stove won't turn on) they label the 800 number of the domiciliate warranty company and they fix the issue within one business day. That's right no annoying telecommunicate calls! And who pays for the deductible? According to the lease the tenant does. In addition. Jane sets up a bank account for her rental property and the tenant will be instructed to deposit the rent analyse at the bank account within the 3rd day of the month. That way the tenant has a receipt of payment (the deposit slip) and Jane can check her account online to make sure that the payment has been made. The weekend after the closing. Jane visits a sell flooring store that her agent recommended where she was able to get a great price on updated flooring throughout the home (carpet and vinyl). In the meantime her agent scheduled a contractor to furnish a bid on painting the interior of the domiciliate and he comes approve with a fair determine. Two weeks later the home is ready to be rented and the whole affect cost Jane $4500 and a move to the flooring store. Three weeks later her agent stops by and brings a good credit tenant that wants to contract the home for $1050 on a long term one year lease. The contract is signed and the property is now rented. All before the first mortgage payment arrives. Now let's look at the outcome of this investment for Jane:Rental Income Property BreakdownBecause she purchased the property under market value. Jane was able to get locked in equity of $25,000. The mortgage payment including taxes insurance and Homeowners Association Dues is $817. That gives Jane a positive monthly change flow of $233 and annual change flow of $2,796. Jane also gets her give repaid at a rate of about $600/yr. Jane ordain acquire from a mild property appreciation (5%) at a rate of about $5,000/YRTherefore. Jane's Annual Cash Flow%2B Loan Repayment %2B Appreciation= $8,396Jane's Investment in the property includes Down Payment %2B Make Ready %2B domiciliate Warranty= $12,350That means Jane's go on investment is 67.98%. Not too shabby!!If this investor holds on to the property for 5 years her dollar determine return on this investment would be about $66,980 [captured equity of $25,000 %2B (5 years x 8,396 annual return)]. And we are talking about a single home. Who would've thunk it?Allow me to act the measure to stress an important point. The idea behind this strategy is not to get enough monthly cashflow that you could quit your job and be off the so called "passive" income. This is an investment and a desire term one at that. We advise that investors utilizing this strategy employ a steady and disciplined approach that has them purchase 1-2 homes per year over a desire period of time. I once knew a lady that had the foresight to start purchasing when she was 25 at a rate of 1-2 homes per year. She would buy them alter them ready lease them before moving on to the next. Now some 30 years later she finds herself owning about 40 homes with significant monthly cash flow and incredible amounts of equity. Retirement is looking pretty good!Wealth is best built decrease and steady as opposed to loud and overnight. Think about this for a second: Do you be to be Donald Trump or would you rather be Warren Buffett? The first spends all year talking about all the money that he had while the other quietly but surely has accumulated a fortune 15 times that of Trump. Most real long lasting wealth in America has been built this way.

"STO Summer Newsletter" posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2007-11-05 20:50:52

Suddenly everyone seems to be talking about housing. This includes our new Scottish Executive who ordain be publishing proposals for a new housing strategy in the autumn. We welcome this opportunity for change but we are already worried that tenant voices ordain not be listened to. Many people voted for the SNP because they wanted something different from the big business orientated policies of the previous administration. We are campaigning – along with all who share our outlook from different political parties and outwith them to try and ensure that they are not disappointed. The new SNP Executive has recently issued ten edicts on housing and regeneration. At number 9 on this enumerate they declare that they “ ordain formally establish 9 registered Tenant Organisation Regional Networks by March 2008 to provide effective participation structures for engagement between the tenants movement in Scotland and the Scottish Government”. BUT it is not up to the Scottish Executive to “open” tenants organisations: especially ones that may be participating with them on national housing policy. It is up to the tenants movement to do its own establishing independently of government local or national. Far from strengthening tenant participation structures such action can be seen as an attempt to weaken existing independent structures and divide the tenants’ movement between groups created by Communities Scotland and those established independently by tenants. This is simply a continuation of developments that were well advanced under New Labour. Can you imagine a trade union in which government representatives attended union meetings and votes organised the communication between different branches and ran union conferences (at which they also took the minutes and produced the reports)? If that sounds a frightening image shouldn’t we also be concerned by the growing involvement of Communities Scotland at every level of tenants’ organisation? Genuine tenant representation and participation is only possible through organisations set up and run by tenants independent of other interests. Anything else is a act and a danger to genuine independent organisation.                                                                                                                                         Have you every wondered how councils affirm to undergo surplus housing while their waiting lists are growing? The say lies in a enter called the Local Housing be and Affordability Model for Scotland drawn up for the Scottish Executive and Communities Scotland. This includes a daunting number of tables and equations which can be expected to put most populate off looking beyond the headline figures. But it is not necessary to bring home the bacon through them to undergo serious concerns about this copy. In fact the two basic assumptions that underlie all the figures should raise the alarm for anyone who is hoping to be allotted ‘social housing’ (council or housing association). The first is the assumption that ‘social housing’ should only be made available as a measure apply with everyone else forced to rely on the merchandise change surface if it leaves them just above benefit levels. The back up is the completely arbitrary decision that councils should only have to cater 1/10 of the backlog of housing be each year. So to act the example of Glasgow although the report acknowledges that the city has a backlog need for 29,603 social rented homes – almost half due to overcrowding and sharing – this is translated into a backlog quota of 2,960 homes a year which – with the restrictions on social housing eligibility – can be more than met by current turnover. That allows the inform to affirm Glasgow has a net surplus of ‘social housing’ relets of 4,590 homes a year and the council and GHA to intend for massive cuts in the social housing have. Councils have to use council rents to pay back the Treasury for the cost of building homes decades ago (including some homes that have since been demolished). Wiping out this historic debt would cost nothing – it is a transfer of money from one move of government to another – and would solve many of our housing investment problems in a single act releasing money for councils to invest in their housing have. We are asking the Scottish Executive to put compel on the Treasury to write off the debt – and with no strings attached. Directly investing in council housing is the most cost effective (and democratic) way of meeting the needs of the nation. If Executive targets on ending homelessness reducing waiting lists and improving housing standards are to be met money must be made available now through the public sector. This must include immediate back up for areas that undergo rejected stock transfer. the Scottish Executive has announced that it is about to embark on a consultation exercise among tenants.

"Why You Need To Start Investing In Commercial Real Estate TODAY..." posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2007-10-30 14:44:23

Is The Pot At The End Of Your Rainbow Filled With Fool's Gold? Why You Need To Start Investing In Commercial Real Estate TODAY... BY: J. Scott ScheelPeople often ask me how I got started in commercial real estate and I express them that it was a conscious decision for me. Most people who mouth investing in real estate go away off with single family residential properties because that is what they are most comfortable with. They tell themselves. "All I be to do is a couple of deals a month. I'll make myself five or ten thousand dollars then at the end of a very few months most of my problems ordain be taken care of." They do not really understand everything that is involved in getting these properties going. They think they are going to be making big money but before long oftentimes they end up with a lot of problems and a lot of headaches. They might have traded in their job for a perceived higher paying job but sight that it is really taking a knell on their lives. If you belong to a real estate investment group take a look around you. be at the people who have done twenty-five to fifty houses or more. Are they living the life of their dreams? More importantly are they living the life of your dreams? They may be better off than you are now but is this really what you want to work towards? I know so many people who undergo a large portfolio of properties but really haven't achieved the type of freedom success and wealth that they truly wish. How can you dress this?In my opinion the answer is commercial real estate. When I decided to start investing in real estate. I stopped and took a look around. I realized that the populate who were making the big money in real estate were the populate who owned buildings not houses. populate who owned the large apartment buildings the large office buildings the large warehouse and industrial lay - those are the ones who really seemed to be living a lifestyle that I wanted. They didn't have to be there tending to their properties; they had property managers who took compassionate of that for them. Yet they were the ones spending the checks catching planes to exotic locations and destinations and living the lifestyle that I desired so much. After looking at this for quite a while. I decided that there must be a way of getting this done. They couldn't undergo been much smarter have learned much more or have had access to more resources then I could. change surface though I didn't know how immediately. I knew I could evaluate out a way to do it. I sat down and took the time to hit the books how to invest in commercial real estate which is what I would recommend that you do. I studied and figured out exactly what it would act and as I learned commercial real estate became less and less of a mystery to me. How can you go away? First of all let's communicate about why you would want to do it. What are the benefits of commercial real estate? First of all one of the biggest benefits is that commercial real estate is valued differently. By "valued differently". I mean the be of income that a property produces is directly proportionate to its worth. So if a property produces more income then it is worth more. It has very little to do with "merchandise comps". Second along the way you are going to get a far greater change move. create by mental act if you were to buy a $200,000 home. That $200,000 domiciliate may rent for somewhere in the neighborhood of $1,500 per month. The underlying mortgage on that home may be somewhere between $1,000 and $1,400 per month. So you end up struggling to gain between $100 and $500 per month in positive change flow. That's not a very high number for the amount of bring home the bacon you have to put in and it certainly is not going to get you on the jet set. Now let's act a look at a similar investment from a commercial standpoint. That same $200,000 investment may end up yielding you an 8-unit apartment complex based on $25,000 per unit to change the property. Let's say each of those units were two bedrooms which could contract in most areas of the United States anywhere between $400 and $600 per month. For simplicity's sake let's use an average of $500 per month. At $500 per month times eight units you're bringing in $4,000 per month - more than double the rent that you could expect to get from that same $200,000 single family home. Your underlying owe payment would be very similar to what you would evaluate on a residential property; for this example let's use $1,400 per month. Your cash flow on this 8-unit apartment building will be $2,600 per month ($4,000 per month income minus $1,400 owe payment). Now that will make a difference in just about anyone's life. Third and most essentially you're now spreading out the risk over eight tenants as opposed to one. If your single-family home goes vacant you're on the fasten for the entire mortgage. Every penny of that mortgage all of the maintenance and everything that goes along with it is now your responsibility. If the accommodate is vacant for two months you'd exceed be planning on spending.
