Invest in Pensacola Commercial Real Estate

You see, in order to get the serious deals that come to wealthy investors, you need to have the cash or equity to get into the lucrative, large investment properties. I'm talking about multi-million dollar apartment complexes, or other commercial properties such as office buildings, retail centers, stand alone commercial buildings, or even portfolios of distressed single family homes.

Our real estate investment groups allow several individuals up to many investors to join together and become one of these "big" investors capable of profiting from a large commercial real estate investment. Here are the advantages:

1. Ability to buy large commercial properties that can have very attractive cash flows and return on investment (ROI) capability. Since there are fewer buyers able to purchase these properties, they can frequently be purchased at more attractive prices. You are typically insulated from competing with inexperienced buyers willing to pay more because they are emotionally attached to the property or transaction.

2. Can be a completely hands off investment. We try to make it like owning a stock for you. Our local, experienced real estate team finds the properties, closes the transactions, and manages the portfolio on behalf of the investment participants. Each participant makes up their own decision to proceed based on the results of the due diligence and investment analysis that I conduct.

3. Great investment results compared to other types of investments. We typically steer clear of risky properties. Of course, EVERY investment has some element of risk. By intelligently leveraging the money, selecting the proper properties, conducting sound due diligence, and employing expert management of the portfolio, handsome returns can be had for much less risk than shares of a company's stock.

4. TAXES! Unlike stocks, you can LEGALLY defer 100% of your capital gains. You can also benefit from depreciation.

5. You don't have to do the accounting or bookkeeping. We do it for you.

6. We find the investments for you.

7. You get all of the equity appreciating benefits that individual investors get without the hassels.

8. You get a monthly payment.

What type of investments do we do?

Although, I'm open to look at any real estate property across the country, I'm an expert in commercial properties in the Pensacola, Florida, area. I hold an active Florida real estate broker license and have considerable experience in purchasing, selling, and managing real estate. I consider myself a specialist in multi-family (apartment) and office properties. I've personally owned and/or managed thousands of these units.

If you don't know me, my background and work ethic stems from being a nuclear engineer and an officer with the United State Navy Submarine Force. So I'm very analytical - some might call me a geek. I also feel the need to engage in decision making. I prefer a hands on approach to property acquisition and management; therefore, my (our) investments will most likely be close to the Pensacola, Florida area.

My "bread and butter" is multi-family properties. These properties, year after year, outperform those in other commercial and residential sectors and typically fair better during periods of economic downturns. Vacancies also have less of an impact. In a single family home, when the house is vacant, revenue drops to zero. In a four-plex, a vacancy results in only a 25% reduction in revenue. Leasing vacant apartment units is also easier than finding a large commercial tenant in a strip mall. Again, these are generalizations. All types of properties can be good investments. But remember: YOU MAKE YOUR MONEY WHEN YOU BUY, NOT WHEN YOU SELL!!! You must NEVER overpay for a property.
