405. An 8% Cap Rate Doesn't Mean You Earn 8% (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Key Takeaways An 8% cap rate does not equal an 8% return. Cap rate is a property-level metric based on NOI and purchase price—not your actual cash-on-cash return. Financing can dramatically change your returns. Interest rate, amortization, leverage, and loan structure can cause cash-on-cash returns to vary significantly—even on the exact same property. Don’t take the reported NOI at face value. Management fees, reserves, vacancy, credit loss, and other expenses may not be reflected in the seller
404. Why You Can’t Find A Deal Anymore (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Key Takeaways Data isn’t an edge anymore – listings, comps, and AI underwriting are now table stakes; when a deal hits platforms, you’re in an auction with the most aggressive buyer. Relationship moat – best deals come from brokers/owners who call you first because you’re trusted, responsive, and actually close. Boots on the ground – real edge comes from being physically in the market, seeing early signals (tenants moving, zoning shifts, local momentum) that never show up in data feeds. Pre-list
403. Your Buildout Budget Is Off by Six Figures (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Key Takeaways A contractor’s quote is not your total buildout budget. The quote typically covers the construction scope, but investors still need to account for soft costs, code requirements, permitting, and carrying costs. Soft costs can add tens of thousands of dollars to a project. Architecture, MEP engineering, permits, plan review fees, inspections, testing, surveys, and as-built drawings all need to be included in the underwriting. A change of use can completely change the economics of a b
402. Your Loan Matures in 18 Months. Now What? (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Key Takeaways Start planning for your loan maturity 18 months out. That gives you enough time to evaluate your options, negotiate with lenders, and strengthen the property before you’re under pressure. Your loan term is not your amortization. A commercial loan might amortize over 20–25 years but still balloon after five years, leaving a significant balance to refinance. DSCR is one of the most important numbers in a refinance. Your payment history helps, but the property still needs enough NOI t
401. How to Buy Your First Trailer Park (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Key Takeaways MH parks = land business, not housing business. Owner rents pads, tenants own homes; owner avoids interior repairs and big capex on structures, focusing instead on utilities, roads, and management. Demand is counter-cyclical and supply is shrinking. Parks are the “Dollar Tree of housing,” performing best in downturns; new parks are almost never approved, while 100+/year are redeveloped into other uses. Economics are driven by NOI vs. interest rates. Deals are valued almost purely o
