As Texas’ Apartment Investing and Syndication Expert, I help high net worth individuals and accredited multi-family investors buy stabilized, well-occupied, investment-grade apartment buildings with management and lender already in place -- just like I did for a recent client looking to expand his already successful portfolio. He came to me because he was burnt out participating in day-to-day management/operations, and he was searching for an experienced investment team with a “friends and family” atmosphere. He knew the value of cash flow and capital appreciation in apartment investing but did NOT want the monotonous day-to-day involvement along with the extensive effort to produce results. Together, we went over the 5-year projections, outlining cash flow estimates from operations (rents) and capital appreciation assumptions. The very next day, he called me back and committed to the full $600,000 subscription for 75% ownership. As a result, the client has held his investment through two refinancing events, putting $1,342,000 (100% of the initial deposit back + another $700,000+) in his pocket. He has no plans for selling any time soon, as the front end (“proforma”) cash flow and capital appreciation estimates were drastically understated and has since participated in 13 more properties with our group! “I fully appreciate your honesty about the legal costs and being fair to the other partners (in the deal) and really liked the simple investment strategy. Thank you for bringing these opportunities to my attention!” To learn how I can help you earn the income and capital appreciation for wealth accumulation and slide into the comfortable retirement you've earned and deserve with our proven 3-5 year multi-family housing investments, hop on a quick 15-minute call and I’ll show you how you can be a part of our investment group: https://calendly.com/mikero7/ari-call?

As Texas’ Apartment Investing and Syndication Expert, I help high net worth individuals and accredited multi-family investors buy stabilized, well-occupied, investment-grade apartment buildings with management and lender already in place -- just like I did for a partnership group who were tired of pouring capital into their property for deferred maintenance or operations. They came to me because their 64-unit apartment complex in Galveston, Texas had slid into a lower class “C” quality property and it was becoming a money pit. After discussing the situation, my sponsor’s operational partner and I approached the partners and offered to purchase 40% of the property and pay for an exterior renovation, covering all operational costs. Because it was a “no cash call” covenant, the sponsor and I paid 100% of costs yet only owned 40% of the property. Upon making the necessary improvements, lightning struck...literally! A freak windstorm blew in and a bolt of lightning fried 13 units. Over the next 2 months, the sponsor and I had to make the mortgage payment and cover all shortfalls as promised to the partnership. By the next spring, all 13 units were refurbished and leased out. Next, we put the property on the market and a small bidding war erupted, with the final bidder offering $300,000 over our already strong asking price due to a nearby water park development. I personally attended the buyer/s appraiser tour to leave nothing to chance with such a high selling price secured! As a result, the property sold at the enhanced price and the partners made a great profit with an additional $180,000 over the asking price. To learn how I can help you earn recurring income and capital appreciation for wealth accumulation and to slide comfortable retirement you've earned and deserve with proven 3-5 year multi-family housing investments, hop on a quick 15-minute call to see if it is right for you: https://calendly.com/mikero7/ari-call?.
