8 reasons not to list your building right now — and the cap rate data supportung it. Cap rates are moving fast: 4.8 in February, 5.6 in March, 6.4 by May, 7.4 today. If you don't have to sell, this isn't the window. Q4 is looking like the reset point.

This a big tax on your home! Look at the numbers. Both the Senate and House Assembly will vote on bill AB736 tomorrow Thursday, June 25.

This bill would write a transfer tax ceiling into state law at up to 3% of a property sales price, nearly 27 times higher than the .11% limit that currently applies to general law Cities on a home priced at $900,000, the new ceiling would let a city charge a transfer tax of up to $27,000.

Contact your legislatures immediately to OPPOSE AB736 this would be a dramatic increase to transfer taxes in California.

Google to find your senate and assembly representatives and call to tell them to VOTE NO ON AB736.

JUST SOLD | 5227 Eagle Dale Ave, Los Angeles $2,515,000

A break-in.
A tenant moved out.
The Buyer's inspector found mold.

Three things that could have killed this apartment building sale.

They didn't.

Transactions don't usually fall apart because of problems. They fall apart because of how the problems are handled.

More properties doesn't automatically mean more wealth.

I recently met with an investor who owned about 20 rental houses.

Most people would assume the next step was to buy more. But after analyzing the portfolio, we saw opportunities that could potentially create more wealth by reducing inefficiencies, consolidating assets, and repositioning the portfolio altogether.

The right strategy often matters more than the property count.

🚨 PRESIDENT TRUMP JUST NOW: "With a great Jobs Report, like just announced, stocks should go up, not down. That’s the way it was for 200 years. Growth does not mean inflation! How else can a Country attain GREATNESS???" 🔥

A tenant moved out during escrow!

Not just any tenant. The highest-paying tenant in the building.

Suddenly, the Buyer's numbers changed. The property's income changed. And a deal that took weeks to put together was at risk.

This is where many transactions start to fall apart.

Instead of arguing over the problem, I focused on a solution.

I negotiated a credit that covered one month of vacancy plus a monthly rent differential for 12 months.

The Buyer felt protected.

The Seller preserved the value of the transaction.

The deal stayed together.

The value supported by that rent was 20 times higher than the actual credit we gave.

Most apartment sales don't fall apart because of bad properties.

They fall apart because unexpected problems show up and nobody knows how to navigate them.

-Break-ins.
-Vacancies.
-Inspection issues.
-Financing surprises.

The question isn't whether challenges will happen. The question is who you have sitting at the negotiating table when they do.

Someone broke into my $2.5M apartment listing during escrow!

That can make any Buyer panic and put a transaction at risk. The challenge wasn't just securing the unit. It was maintaining confidence in the deal.

I moved immediately:
-secured the property
-installed a Home Depot alarm that didn't need internet
-communicated with the Buyers
-handled the disclosure correctly
-stayed hands on throughout

When selling an apartment building, problems will happen. What matters is whether your Broker can solve them quickly, communicate clearly, and protect the value of the transaction under pressure.

"I will lead a reform oriented Federal Reserve learning from past successes and mistakes both escaping static Frameworks and models" Kevin Warsh, Federal Reserve Bank Chairman

Did you hear that? The old models are outdated limiting growth and actually adding to inflation. There may be some short term pain and some profiting off of fear while markets try to understand the changes, but the years afterwards will be exciting.

I often say we are in the early stages of the next real estate super cycle. Get ready to make moves.

You need a smart macro approach to investment real estate with a problem solving hand. DM or call me to discuss a plan to maximize the value of your assets.

Who's buying buildings in Los Angeles? Live in one and rent the other Buyers. I sold this duplex in Silver Lake, CA to young Buyers who had just enough down payment to live for free. The rent covered their cost. You have to position your teal estate for different scenarios not just for a return on investment model.

Who will pay top dollar for your real estate? I sold this $3M multi family listing of mine to a high income cash buyer who will use the cost segregation study I prepared to deduct about $423k from his income taxes.
