4-8% But it depends of course. Every facility is different. Today’s cap rate based on actuals might be 4.5% but the 2 year proforma might show 6.5%. This will have the buyer take a closer look to see if they feel your proforma is doable with your location and other market conditions. Talk to the brokers ...

Reginald, jump in the water is warm. Recommendations, keep your day job. Have this be your night job for a while. Buying existing vs building...my recommendation, buy existing.

1) sorry to hear about this 2) let the renter know they can clean out the units if they are current and move out. No problem and with them well. 3) if they are saying it's now your problem…best is to get them to sign the form that says they are abandoning the unit. With that you can take the stuff and ...

Steve, sending customers that owe us money to collections is something we do monthly. It’s a small consequence to the customers for not paying their bills. We do not get much money but we do have trickle in checks. We use: American Collection Agency out of OKC. LOUISE KIPER 800-657-7318 x 121, Lou ...

David, property taxes is one of my most frustrating experiences…every time. Forces you to really pay attention to rate increases or you just make less money. The new law capping the increase you pay from year over year is going to help but that cap still means a 20% increase annually is possible if not ...

Thomas/Mark, these are big decisions. Expensive decisions. CPA and Brokers will have the most “at bats” with issues like this. Thanks Jon for your response…right on the money IMO.

In the assignment of leases when you acquire a property you assume the leases in place. Signed or not by lessor or lessee something is assumed to be in place. but, you need to work to get the TSSA Lease in place. Best if everyone signs, e-sign or signature, better is emailed lease saying this is ...
