My Strategy • Buy properties from distressed situations - very cheap • Make them livable/rentable asap - interior • Initially rent them out cheap • Use cash flow to fix up exterior – curb appeal • When vacant: improve interior: raise rents

My Formula Improve the Building Increase Value of the Property Charge Higher Rents Attract Better Tenants

Buy and Hold - Factors • Establish your long-term goals – But… if you can’t make it in the short term, then the long term doesn’t matter much. • • • Establish a cash flow system Be selective in what you invest in Realize your dependencies Understand your continued responsibility You make your money from your tenants, not from your buildings
