Ep. 232 Al Nicoletti: Probate Real Estate Investing

38m · Published 26 Jul 09:00

Most real estate investors look for conventional opportunities, but there are some great deals to be had within the world of probate. Today we talk with Al Nicoletti, Attorney and probate specialist, about the ins and outs of probate and how it can be advantageous for real estate investors.

What exactly is probate? If there is no appointed heir when the owner passes away, the property is turned over to the courts and then appointed to the closest relative as the executor to sell the property. Often times the executor is willing to sell the real estate at a discount so they don't have to deal with it.

Eric Odum, the co-host of this show, has stated that almost all of the properties he's bought have been in probate.

Ep. 231 Michael Brady: Biden's Proposal to Eliminate 1031 Exchanges & It's Impact on Real Estate

25m · Published 10 Jul 19:10

Today we discuss 1031 exchanges with Michael Brady, and the Biden Administration's proposal to possibly eliminate them, as well as the potential impact this will have (and is having) on real estate. As an overview, a 1031 exchange allows you to sell one investment or business property and buy another without incurring capital gains taxes. It also has a multiplier affect in that 1031 exchanges help to generate revenue, jobs, and economic development. So why is the current White House administration proposing to possibly eliminate 1031 exchanges when cutting it would barely put a dent in the deficit? Is this really a good idea?

Ep. 229 Ben Pleat: Building Community While Increasing Retention in Multifamily Residential

24m · Published 14 Jun 09:00

Today we talk with Ben Pleat, CEO and founder of Cobu, which is a fully moderated community software app that helps build sense of community among residents of large apartment complexes while also helping to increase resident satisfaction and thus increase retention and renewals.

Living in apartment buildings can be an isolating experience. The way Cobu helps to build community is by connecting residents based on shared affinities -- for example, a mom's group, parent group, foodie group, dog group, etc, and it enables residents to create community in a way that doesn't require additional time or budget from the property team.

EP. 228 Alan Fruitman: Single Tenant Triple Net (NNN) Properties

50m · Published 31 May 09:00

On this week's podcast we talk with Alan Fruitman about single tenant triple net (NNN) leased properties. A NNN lease helps minimize the responsibilities for the investor since the tenant agrees to pay all the expenses of the property including the real estate taxes, building insurance, and maintenance.

A very interesting discussion that emerged from this episode is the current administration's proposal to cut 1031 exchanges, which would be a tremendous blow to real estate. If Capitol Hill eliminates the 1031 Exchange, this will have a dramatic and negative affect on real estate as this would decrease proceeds by almost 50%. As a consequence, Alan predicts a heavy volume of real estate transactions in Q3 and Q4 as investors are trying to get their sale and 1031 exchange in before the end of 2021.

EP. 227 Eric Odum: Lawfare - Mortgage Satisfaction

10m · Published 17 May 09:00

Eric Odum tells the real life ongoing story about a borrower and a private lender, and the importance of ensuring that when a loan is paid off, that the mortgage satisfaction has actually been recorded. In this case, the borrower wanted to sell his property. However, although the borrower had paid off the mortgage to a private lender 16 years ago, and the lender supplied a satisfaction of mortgage to the borrower, it was never filed. The borrower did find the mortgage satisfaction document, but the title company said it was not sufficient satisfaction and they would need to issue a new document, and to make matters worse, the lender did not remember the transaction.

EP. 226 Eloy Retana: Florida Mobile Home Park Market

39m · Published 26 Apr 09:00

During this COVID19 epidemic, mobile home parks have outperformed other real estate asset classes. Today we talk with Eloy Retana about the Mobile Home Park Market in Florida and how he considers them a safer asset for investment as we enter a period of economic uncertainty.

Eloy and his partner have done quite well in this market as housing affordability has become more of a problem. Since it is more difficult for a mobile home tenant to move, Eloy enjoys the stability and longevity of the tenants. Up until recently, investors in the mobile home park market have been seeing 15%-20% cash on cash returns with the potential to double their money within 5 years. Although lately it's been more difficult to reach those returns with the increased competition and rising prices. However, great returns and cash flow are still there for savvy investors.

EP. 225 Alicia Jarrett: Florida Land Investing

49m · Published 05 Apr 09:00

While many Florida investors focus on multifamily investments, Alicia Jarrett and her team are focused on land investments - and they are doing quite well. And did we mention Alicia is based in Australia?

Alicia discovered that the turn-around time with land is actually quicker (just a few days) than any other physical asset like multifamily or single family. Surprisingly, there are a lot of people that own land that don't want it, so there are a lot of Florida land investment opportunities out there. Alicia uses a systematic approach combined with technology to help her and her team find, manage, and sell these land investment opportunities - and she can help you as well.
