Recovering Multi Family Developer transitioning to Industrial Investor - Sharing my journey and learning from others - Founder and Managing Director of TAG SLC
Can't make this stuff up. We sent in a well articulated request that could have been forwarded to the appropriate party in less time then it took to make this reply.
Appreciate the urgency
People get in their own way.
Broker: Prospective buyer says what you paid for it vs the price now is too much of a turn off for him
Me: That is fine, he probably drive a prius to save on gas money
The way I see it is that once a deal is stabilized, you are only going to get the market return. If you have the ability to find another problem to solve, sell it and go fix the next problem.
Should Neighbors Concerns Always be Addressed??
"Hi, this is the neighbor to your property at XYZ. Just wondering who I can contact about the fallen leaves at this location? Winds in the forecast and all those leaves are going to blow all over!"
Someone decides to start removing the faux brick from this retail building.
Now the tenants arguing "Landlord shall maintain, keep and repair, at its expense, all structural portions of the building."
Pretty sure that cardboard isn't structural
Sometimes Deals Die
So far this week:
Sale of Development site - buyer cancelled because they weren't close enough with the city
Sale of Development site - buyer released their option due to city not allowing use
Sale of SFR we took back at foreclosure - buyer cancelled due to wonky floor plan
Sale of STNL Industrial - buyer asked for 5% discount due to roof issue that is unknown to us or the tenant
Term sheet denied by borrower on 10% LTV deal
Loan didn't fund because borrowers parents decided to lend them the money
Payoff of 1.35M bridge loan was delay due to underwriter
Two LOI's on STNL Industrial deals reject - seller got better offers
BUT..... the week isnt over and your only one call/email away from the deal of a lifetime.
Anticipate selling a syndicated industrial deal in December and contemplating whether to 1031 or cash out.
For my own or partnership deals, almost always 1031.
But haven't explored this as much with syndication.
Who has done this? Did it work out okay?
