Construction ManagementÂ
Constructions Management Framework
Define your investment criteria:
Determine your budget, desired property types (e.g., single-family homes, multi-unit buildings), and target neighborhoods in Philadelphia.
Identify your investment goals, such as desired cash flow, return on investment, and time frame.
Research Philadelphia real estate market:
Study the local market conditions, including property values, rental rates, vacancy rates, and neighborhood trends.
Analyze historical data and future projections to make informed investment decisions.
Secure financing:
Explore financing options, including conventional loans, hard money loans, private lenders, or partnerships.
Prepare necessary financial documents and meet with potential lenders to secure financing for the acquisition and rehabilitation phase.
Identify target properties:
Utilize online platforms, real estate agents, and local resources to find suitable properties that meet your investment criteria.
Conduct thorough property evaluations, considering factors such as location, condition, potential repairs, and market value.
Perform due diligence:
Conduct a comprehensive property inspection, including a professional inspection and assessment of repair costs.
Verify property title, zoning regulations, and any potential liens or encumbrances.
Review property tax history and any outstanding obligations.
Calculate the numbers:
Determine the property's after-repair value (ARV) based on market comparables and projected repairs.
Calculate the expected expenses, including acquisition costs, renovation costs, holding costs, property management fees, and contingencies.
Assess the potential rental income and estimate cash flow.
Acquire the property:
Make an offer and negotiate the purchase price with the seller or their agent.
Finalize the purchase agreement and secure the property through escrow or a title company.
Rehabilitate the property:
Create a detailed scope of work for the renovations, considering both cosmetic and structural improvements.
Obtain necessary permits and hire reliable contractors or oversee the renovations yourself if qualified.
Manage the renovation process, ensuring quality work within the allocated budget and timeline.
Find tenants and rent the property:
Develop a marketing strategy to attract potential tenants, such as online listings, signage, or working with a property management company.
Screen prospective tenants rigorously, including background checks, credit checks, and income verification.
Sign lease agreements and collect security deposits before the tenants move in.
Refinance the property:
Monitor the property's market value and local financing conditions to determine the optimal time for refinancing.
Compile all necessary documents, including renovation receipts, lease agreements, and financial statements.
Approach lenders and apply for a refinance loan based on the property's new appraised value.
Repeat the process:
Assess the financial outcomes of the BRRRR project and determine if it meets your investment goals.
If successful, use the refinanced funds to repeat the process and acquire additional properties or reinvest in the existing property portfolio.
