[Property Manager US-WI] Property Management veteran seeking individual private investor or family owned apartment community to manage.

1 Upvotes

I am reaching out to the independent investors/private landlords in Wisconsin.
I am a 30-year veteran Multifamily Property Manager currently operating a standalone market-rate asset in Wisconsin. I spent my first 16 years in the industry working for the large, national and statewide Property Management organizations. However, back in 2012, I decided to refocus my career path away from the traditional, large corporate environment and more towards becoming a valuable commodity for a small family/independent investor who may own (or is interested in owning) a single site, market rate multifamily property in rural Wisconsin.
Over the past 14+ years at this single location, I have maintained total operational autonomy, high leasing velocity, and strict compliance with Wisconsin ATCP 134/Chapter 704 landlord-tenant laws. As a result, I and my maintenance staff have completely transformed this community into a financial gem that allows for little to no owner interaction and stress. However, due some familial and financial issues that were raised outside of this asset, the apartment community had been sold to a larger, corporate third-party management structure. This has completely disrupted our immense progress we have made over the years with regard to overall property appearance, resident satisfaction and retention, increased NOI, and so much more.
When I came to work (as an employee) for this private owner years ago, I truly thought this would be my final destination in my career path. However, these days I find myself looking to escape this corporate world once again and align my expertise directly with a private individual, a local family trust, or an independent commercial broker syndicate.

Now, typically, the ability (and need) to require and maintain a full time staff (Manager, Maintenance, and cleaning personnel) would entail a property in the range of approximately 120-150 units (give or take). Therefore, I am specifically seeking a private investor (or group of investors) who owns or is looking to acquire a property of this sort in rural Wisconsin, who would relish the opportunity to join forces with a seasoned industry professional that would bring decades of on-site operations expertise to their investment.

This truly becomes a win-win situation for both myself and the owner/investor. While returning myself to my intended direction of working for a private investor, my decades of industry operations experience and legal insight provides the ability to implement structured business practices that would typically only be available by hiring a costly management company. As mentioned earlier, I come from decades of working for the large apartment communities in major metropolitan markets, and therefore have the advantage of bringing proven business practices to your investment. If you are a private investor who fits this description, please message me privately, as I would like to keep this conversation confidential (for obvious reasons), so that we can discuss further.

0 Upvotes

I have a multi family duplex I bout In 2021 it cash flows about 1k a month with an fha loan at 2.5 interest (I live in the basement)

I want to pull money out but need guidance on how to.
Should I do a heloc and heloan because refinancing is out of the question

Any advice? Do I have to wait my credit is at around 650-680 and I do plan on getting a co borrower

WTF is a good credit score worth really?

1 Upvotes

I have had near perfect credit for 20 years. I have had stable employment, at least until we had a baby and then only took PTO previously accrued and happened to be 2020, so things weren't exactly busy as usual, so took a few unpaid weeks as well. Since then, it's been part time work for either the wife or I while the other worked fulltime. Took the slow baby time to improve my skills in web development with a bootcamp and now can make great websites for any business that I could setup. Bills, mortgage, service fees and medical costs all paid on time (hence the perfect credit). No arrests ever, not even traffic tickets in the last decade. The sale of our first home allowed us to pay cash for the second and we only have a small mortgage from the improvements we made. I even have good experience in real estate management counting beans for a successful company with a little over 100 units. But what good is any of that if the house prices are so high, I can't even save enough for a downpayment on a duplex? What does credit really measure when all the real estate tycoons got started before credit scores meant anything? and they all have a bankruptcy history and ARE PROUD OF IT FOR SOME REASON??? When an ENTIRE GENERATION of people are held to EXPONENTIALLY higher standards than anyone before them... what have we accomplished? is it any wonder why su!c!de rates keep rising? All we get from the boomers is these empty catchphrases like "pull yourself up by the bootstraps", "roll with the punches", "I shoulda never married that damn woman!", "WHAT THE HELL'S THE MATTER WITH YOU, KID?!?!"

Seriously, where is the MENTORSHIP???? I am sick of asking these drunk f*cks how they got started in real estate, it's obvious they don't have a friggin clue, and they just happened to get in at the best time ever. If all of your tenants can convert a PDF lease, you should be able to, too! wtf

What makes you walk away from a real estate deal even when the numbers still work?

1 Upvotes

Lately, I’ve been thinking more about why investors walk away from deals.

A property can clear your initial financial requirements and still leave you uncomfortable. Why is this? Maybe the assumptions require everything to go right. Maybe the location is more dependent on one employer or economic driver than you initially realized. Maybe the renovation or development has too many variables to price accurately.

For me, the important question isn't simply whether the projected return works. It's how many things have to cooperate for that return to happen.

I try to pay particular attention when several optimistic assumptions depend on one another. If rents need to rise, construction needs to stay on budget, financing needs to remain available, and the eventual exit needs to happen at an aggressive valuation, the spreadsheet may show an attractive return while the margin for error is actually quite small.

I’m not trying to suggest this automatically makes it a bad investment. Higher-risk opportunities can be appropriate at the right price. But I want to understand where the risk comes from rather than letting a projected return hide it.

I've definitely passed on opportunities that looked pretty attractive simply because I couldn't get comfortable with the number of assumptions required.

For other real estate investors, what's the factor most likely to make you walk away even after a deal initially pencils out?

Looking for advice on a partnership structure

1 Upvotes

A former investor hit on hard times and can no longer get financing on projects. He has a developable piece of land that can be made into a 16 unit multifamily. It’s currently valued at $1m and he has an existing loan for $600k.

He wants to develop it but can’t get financing so he came to us with the idea that we would obtain the financing to refinance out his existing debt as well as to do the development. He will be providing his equity as well as be a pseudo project manager. We will bring the financing as well as our contractors and experience. We will not bring cash to the closing but will be responsible for monthly payments on the debt.

The total cost to build will be $4.8m and the expected completed value is $7.25m. This is a person we do not know directly but have mutual friends and want to have a fair deal. What would you offer for a percentage share on the project?

Bonjour à tous,

Cela fait plusieurs années que j'exerce en tant que conseiller en immobilier neuf en Île-de-France et d’autres régions.

La particularité de mon métier, c'est que je travaille en direct avec la quasi-totalité des promoteurs du marché (ce sont eux qui me rémunèrent, mon accompagnement est donc sans frais pour mes clients).

J’accompagne les acquéreurs de A à Z : de la recherche du bien idéal jusqu’à la remise des clés du logement ! Je m'occupe également de réaliser les études de financement sur mesure.

Je gère donc au quotidien des dossiers pour des résidences principales (avec toutes les questions liées à la TVA réduite et au Prêt à Taux Zéro) ainsi que des projets d'investissements locatifs (Jeanbrun, LMNP...).

Demandez-moi ce que vous voulez !

Seeking a Joint-Venture Partner for a Multi-Storey Commercial & Residential Development in Ghana 🇬🇭

1 Upvotes

I'm looking for a serious investor or strategic real-estate development partner to collaborate with me on a property development project in Begoro, Eastern Region, Ghana.

I currently own the property outright, and the relevant ownership and property documentation is available for verification and due diligence.

The building currently stands at two floors, with a vision to expand the development to approximately four floors, subject to structural assessment, engineering requirements, planning approval, and the necessary permits.

**The Development Vision**

My goal is to transform the existing structure into a multipurpose income-generating property combining:

• Commercial shops and retail rental units.

• Self-contained residential apartments.

• Additional rental or commercial spaces, depending on the final approved design and market demand.

The aim is to create a property with multiple potential income streams while contributing to commercial and residential development in the area.

What I Bring to the Partnership

• Ownership of the existing property.

• Property documentation available for due diligence.

• An existing building that provides a starting point for further development.

• A long-term vision for creating a commercially viable real-estate asset.

The Partnership I'm Seeking

I'm open to a joint venture with an investor, property developer, construction company, or business partner who can contribute development capital, construction materials, technical expertise, project management, or a combination of these.

The partnership terms are negotiable. I'm open to discussing equity participation, profit-sharing, investment contributions, responsibilities, and other mutually beneficial arrangements.

I'm interested in building a transparent, professionally structured partnership rather than rushing into an agreement without proper planning and due diligence.

I can share photographs of the existing building and discuss the property documentation, proposed development, completion budget, and potential commercial uses with serious prospective partners.

I'm open to working with both Ghanaian and international investors.

If you have experience in real estate, construction, property development, or investment and would like to explore this opportunity, please send me a direct message introducing yourself and explaining how you might approach the project.

Serious enquiries and long-term partnerships are welcome.

Let's discuss the possibilities.

Leasing to a corporate housing company vs self managing?

1 Upvotes

I own a couple of investment properties in DC that I have been managing as long-term rentals. It's been fine overall, but dealing with tenant turnover, coordinating repairs, and chasing late rent occasionally gets tiring. I've started looking into corporate housing companies because having a company handle everything while paying a consistent rate sounds appealing.

For DC landlords who have tried this, how does it actually work in practice? Are the rates comparable to regular long-term rentals? Who takes care of maintenance, and does the property experience more wear and tear? I am trying to figure out whether corporate housing is a genuine alternative to self-managing or whether the numbers stop making sense once all the costs are included.

I work for a private lender. Here are our actual terms for fix-and-flip loans, ask me anything

5 Upvotes

I'm Kai, I work for Blue Vikings Lending, a direct private lender, so I'm biased. I'm posting our terms plainly because lender pricing is usually hard to pin down, and I'd rather you know what to expect before you apply anywhere.

What we do: short-term, business-purpose loans on single-family and residential multifamily purchase-and-rehab deals.

Terms on qualifying deals:

- Up to 90% of purchase price

- 100% of the approved rehab budget, held back and released through draws

- Combined max up to 70% of ARV (generally 65% for first-time borrowers)

- No prepayment penalty and no minimum interest

Process: the application takes about five minutes, and a term sheet comes within 24 business hours, often the same day. We don't generally run credit checks, but we do verify property value and your experience.

We lend in 39 states and don't lend in AK, AZ, CA, HI, ID, MN, NV, ND, OR, SD or VT.

Happy to answer questions in the comments

Thinking of buying land to build affordable triplex or fourplex in section 8 area

1 Upvotes

Been doing a lot of research about zoning and setbacks. Knowing how much I can build and where I can build on a piece of land. However, that land is in a class C section 8 area neighborhood. I want to build affordable duplexes and possibly qualify them for section 8 housing but not sure if this is a good move. It’s in New Mexico.

Like, how was the process of people who build duplexes/land in section 8 areas. Give me the run down, I do have enough money cash to buy land, and some to do building, of course will be working to pay for the building. Aka, let’s assume money to build and develop is not too much of a problem.
