    I bought a foreclosure place 18 years ago with a house on it on 4 acres for 180K
    I sold off 2 of the 4 acres and parceled into 1 acre each
    Put in a road and utilities sold the one acre lots for 150K each to a builder
    The builder build houses and each sold for 600K each. My house is worth over 500K now with the improvements.
    Timing played a big factor in this deal
    There is so many deals out on the market. What might work now may not work 2 years from now.
    Reading and doing your home work helps in planning ahead

    Stay away from 5-9 unit residential rentals. Why? Too long to type the story but an appraiser told me so.

    Like to know what his/your take on 5-9 units is? They've been good to me

    Not saying they are bad to hold onto. Just not a good time to buy into them. The sales price on these are astronomical when compared to the annual gross rents, at least in the Los Angeles/OC areas. Appraisals coming in short, especially income approach. Appraisers cutting back sales comparison approach as well.

    Depends on the state. Stay out of Texas. I have seen A LOT of my borrowers going to different states and the properties cash flow with 20% down, something you don't see in California. I've seen good NNN properties in Utah, Ohio, Alabama, Mississippi and all have seemed to work out so far for my customers. These are properties to hold onto, not flip down the road for something bigger. The mass amounts of appreciation is just not there to cover the sellilng fees.
    On the other side of the spectrum, I have also been asked by a couple borrowers if they could deed the property back to the bank as well, one being in the St. Louis area(8 unit residential). That specific property was property managment. When you get so far away from home, you have to find a property manager you trust, otherwise, you can be taken to the bank.
    I had a borrower purchasing 45 units in Tempe, AZ. The existing owner had a ASU student running the propety for him(idiot). He was renting out the units cash to his buddies and telling the owners there was just high vacancy. Make sure that you are close enough to monitor your investments.
