Rob Rowsell took a question from a small apartment investor looking to move up. Let Rob explain the ins and outs on how to buy large multifamily properties. When it comes to rental property investing, Rob has the answers!

Ready To Buy Large Multifamily Properties?Are You Ready To Buy Large Multifamily Properties?

Jelisa had gained experience in real estate by investing in apartments with very few units. She thought that she was ready to move up to larger properties. However, the sheer sizes of the apartment complexes she was eying up was were intimidating. Was she really ready to buy large multifamily properties? She asked Rob for some pointers on how he put his education to work and tackled his fears during growth periods.

Rob asked for clarification. Jelisa was looking to sell her triplex and move up to a 16-75 unit dwelling. She instead was looking at a 15-unit complex, due to the sizes of the larger complexes on her list. Essentially, she hoped to baby step up to triple-digit unit dwellings by starting with some double digit ones. She set her focus over the last few months on education, specifically on the expenses and unexpected challenges of large multifamily properties.

Rob’s Advice

Since Jelisa explained that she was selling her triplex to move up and buy large multifamily properties, Rob talked about timing. Before buying a dwelling of 16 or more units, she would need to get her ducks in a row to find a buyer, and let the large dwelling seller know about the sale. Then, there is the matter of securing loans and escrow for the new property once she chooses it.

Jelisa explained that she found many options for financing, with varying risk factors. Rob explained that the potential price of a 16-plex in Jelisa’s home state of South Carolina meant her loan amount would be under $1 million. Therefore, she would need to reach out to a local lender for the loan, rather than a federal lender. This would mean a higher interest rate, but would also provide some much needed flexibility. Explore both credit unions and local banks to see which provides the best options.

Attention Beginner Real Estate Investor! Learn How To Avoid Common Mistakes

Beginner real estate investor rental homeBeginner Real Estate Investor Kris called in to Rob’s monthly Inner Circle Zoom meeting, and laid out her situation. She bought a house to renovate in order for it to generate revenue. Unfortunately, she had some nightmare experiences with contractors. In fact, she was on her third contractor at the time when she called Rob. For future reference, she asked what education to pursue so she could avoid her properties becoming money pits.

Kris clarified that she planned at first to use the house for a home business, but then decided to use it as a single family rental property. Since Rob specializes in multifamily real estate investments, he recommended Ryan Pineda’s courses for single family rental homes. While Ryan’s education platform is a big investment, it is a goldmine of knowledge for any beginner real estate investor starting with a single family property.

Rob Rowsell answered a caller who asked about which of two investing choices was the best arrangement. Should the caller choose a joint venture real estate deal or a syndication investment? Watch and learn which is the best scenario for your own property deal.

Real Estate Joint Venture Investment or SyndicationJoint Venture Real Estate Deal And Syndication Investment Compared

Our friend Gabriel asked Rob which factors dictated a joint venture real estate deal, rather than investing with a syndication. For example, could the number of units in the property play a role?

Instead, Rob feels like JV deals are appropriate whenever you can pitch in with competent, like minded friends. He shares his Christian faith with one group who he does Joint Venture investments with, although Rob welcomes non believers to his business circle. Faith in Christ just happens to be one of the common threads in the trust that bonds this group.

When is a Syndication property investment a better choice? Rob explains that if you contribute to multiple Joint Ventures, you will soon run out of money. Syndication investments do not require you to risk as much cash as a JV or become as directly involved. When you go into a Joint Venture, it’s all hands on deck amongst a small group to make sure all of the paperwork is signed and decisions are made.

So, which do you choose? Go with a smaller property and smaller team on a Joint Venture? You may get a greater return, but you will definitely work for it. A Syndication could reap a smaller reward, but will not require as much investment or effort. It all depends on your own financial situation, whether or not you have a close knit core group of investors, and what your goals are.

Here is a clip from a recent Inner Circle Gathering Zoom call. Rob Rowsell answers a question from our friend Deon about the difference between interest only property loans and balloon loans. Watch and learn.

Interest Only Property LoansInterest Only Property Loans – When And Where?

Many interest only property loans are also balloon loans. For example, Rob cites a ten year interest only loan he currently holds. At the end of the ten year period, he can make a balloon payment to pay off the loan, or he can choose to refinance that loan. Deon next asked if that type of loan is Rob’s preferred arrangement.

Rob then gives his honest opinion that taking out an interest only loan. Such a loan is not usually the best move for multifamily property investments. Why not?

One benefit of having tenants in your properties is that their rent payments can go toward paying the principal of your loan. After ten years of collecting rent, you can considerably pay down the amount that you owe to the bank. This is a great method when you intend on holding onto the property for a long time. Conversely, if you want to sell the property in a short amount of time, an interest only option may be a good choice.

In summary, taking out interest only property loans should only be done in special circumstances. Building equity on the front end allows investors to potentially take out other, more manageable loans to add more revenue generating properties.
