SoCal Apartment Renovation – Flip or Flop – Episode 3

SoCal Apartment Renovation – Flip or Flop – Episode 3

Over the last few months I “Substantially Renovated” a 4 unit property in the Inland Empire. Having purchased the property earlier this year I had no idea I would be up against Rising Material Costs and an Extended Eviction Moratorium, but life goes on. On today’s show, I walk you through the final breakdown of how much I spent on the project, what improvements I chose to spend my money on, and the end result with respect to the increase in property value and, more importantly, the HUGE increase in Cash-Flow! This is the final installment in a 3 part series as I attempt to assist those owners who avoid property renovations because they assume the process is too much hassle, they do not have the “know-how”, fear that the process is too costly, or incorrectly assume the final payout does not justify the capital investment.

SoCal Apartment Renovation – Flip or Flop – Episode 1

SoCal Apartment Renovation – Flip or Flop – Episode 1

In a rent-controlled world, how do you collect above-market rental rates when there is a Rent Cap in place? The truth is, you can’t…unless you vacate a unit legally by completing “substantial improvements.” How do you determine if a unit warrants substantial improvement? We will discuss that very question over the course of these videos. 

In this Week’s Video, I walk you through the beginning stages of my most recent remodel project. This project started just prior to the Pandemic, and that made the process that much more interesting. 

This is the first installment in a 4 part series (WATCH NOW) as I attempt to assist those owners who avoid extreme renovations because they assume the process is too much hassle, they do not have the “know-how,” fear that the process is too costly, or incorrectly assume the final payout does not justify the capital investment.

What is my goal? Bottom Line – I want to help landlords obtain maximum cash-flow (especially in a rent-controlled market). In my opinion, owning multi-family investments should be extremely financially rewarding, while at the same time not be overly consuming of your time. Second, by completing these types of improvements, when it is time to sell, a buyer will happily over-pay for your property because your rental rates & the condition of the property justifies above-market pricing!!!
