Now more than ever cash is king. Investors with cash have always had an advantage, but more now than ever self reliant investors can capitalize on the blood in streets. Although Americans hear everyday on TV that banks are lending, small business loans have increased, the truth is that it is very difficult to obtain a loan, especially when the business model is structured around real estate and profits depend on the sale of a property.
At best once a track record is established, an investor may be able …

The Denver real estate market has started to slowly show signs of life compared to extreme bubble markets such as Phoenix, Las Vegas or Florida. Price to rent ratios and price per square foot on distressed properties are starting to make sense and cash on cash returns are often in the low double digits. Knowing how to conduct the proper due diligence on a property is an important part of real estate investing, as is finding the best area where income property is for sale.
There are several areas of …

How would you like to walk to the mailbox and collect a check every month from real estate that you owned? Depending on the type of property and financial position, it could be a few hundred dollars, to thousands of dollars per month. The Denver real estate market has begun a slow recovery since the decline in housing values that started in mid 2000 for the Denver metro area. The Notice of Election in Demand (NED) list has shown signs of improvement of the past few years.

Financing Denver investment property can be difficult in any real estate market, especially if the investor is a business owner that shows a fluctuating income. Banks are very strict with lending criteria currently and in my opinion often try and find a reason why not to lend money, opposed to reasons why they should lend money to a borrower. I have seen individuals with enough liquid cash to cover the loan have difficulties qualifying.
A growing number of real estate investors feel now is a great time to take advantage of the …

The mantra for investment property advice today is to stick to the fundamentals that will yield positive cash flow. Long gone are the speculators that have fueled the real estate bubble. In the boom years real estate investors ( or better called speculators ) would buy a property and try and flip it for a quick cash out the strategy was a hope of quick equity gains. Today real estate investors are returning to the fundamentals, and the key is cash flow, they are holding and renting for solid, steady …

Cash is king in today’s real estate market. The real estate correction in the Denver market has presented ample opportunity for small residential investors, to large commercial investors and developers seeking distressed prices on qualified assets.
The common denominators in successfully closing distressed opportunities are relationships and capital. Without access to capital and seasoned relationships to access distressed opportunities, obtaining profitable assets is very difficult. Private money lenders are a key component in not only the Denver real estate investment market, but all across the country.
Private money lenders are able to …

Investors all across the country have been burnt by purchasing a proforma, rather than an investment property. I personally have seen this happen over and over again in the Denver market for both residential and commercial investment properties. Sure property values have dropped, which has caused real estate owners to become upside down, but often the proforma numbers they were given were set up for failure.
Evaluating real estate is quite simple once you know what you are doing, it just takes some experience. One of the first things that …

The Denver real estate market has several attractive areas for investment property depending on an investor’s preferences. The Denver metro area has several trendy neighborhoods going through drastic transformations. The highlands area for example has 100 year old properties undergoing major renovations. In some cases properties are torn down to accommodate new modern buildings and town home developments. This is also happening in areas like Sloan’s lake that use to be considered a rougher area of town.
The transformation of these properties allow new home owner’s to live in historic …

A huge factor of success in owning investment property is keeping it rented with tenants that pay on time. The dream tenant seldom calls the landlord, pays rent in a timely manner and well maintains the property.
The reality for real estate investors is finding all 3 of these attributes can be very difficult. It does happen and is ideal for investment property owners, but waiting around for a tenant that possess all three can result in vacant months, leaving the landlord with negative cash flow. If an real estate investor can …
