You’ve found what appears to be a great property, and you just received the inspection report. It listed many defects, most of which are typical, and the cost to correct them is well-defined. However, a few items are disconcerting because the report listed symptoms rather than specific defects, such as mold, Kitec plumbing, China drywall, aluminum wiring, roof leaks, settlement, etc.

These ill-defined problems are red flags because remediating them is not “fixed.” For example, suppose mold was detected. What would it cost to correct the mold?

Despite recent challenges in the commercial real estate space, one area has become surprisingly popular among institutional investors: retail.

As demand for office space has declined, retail seems to have picked up, despite a tumultuous 2023. According to the Wall Street Journal, private investors snagged $1 billion more in retail assets than they sold in the third quarter of last year.

Predictions for retail over the coming year are strong, with many expecting retail to be a bright spot in an otherwise lackluster CRE space.

BiggerPockets Daily - 1215 - 70 Percent Rule by Chris Bibey
play

02/11/24 • 13 min

The 70% rule in real estate can be helpful when comparing properties and making a final determination on which one is the best investment. Understanding the ins and outs of this rule is imperative to using it to your advantage.

What Is the 70% Rule?

The 70% rule is a formula commonly used by real estate investors as a barometer when purchasing distressed properties for a profit. The formula calculates the maximum amount to pay for a given property once two key factors—the after-repair value (ARV) and estimated repair costs (ERC)—are considered.

For all the recent talk about a possible interest rate easing in 2024 and the low likelihood of a severe recession, people are still feeling pessimistic. The Fannie Mae Home Purchase Sentiment Index for November is out, and it paints a general picture of low confidence among both homebuyers and home sellers.

As interest rates began to climb in 2022, consumer confidence in the housing market began to plummet, reaching their lowest levels by late 2022. Confidence stabilized somewhat in 2023 but quickly reached what Fannie Mae is calling a ‘‘low-level plateau.’’

Affordable housing might be a priority for the government, but that doesn’t mean banks share the same view. According to a recent CoStar article, 11 federal home loan banks say that government pressure to fund their housing programs could threaten their stability.

The Biden administration requires federal banks to contribute money through grants for affordable housing initiatives. According to a White House press release, the president proposed that “each Federal Home Loan Bank double its annual contribution to the Affordable Housing Program, which will raise an additional $3.79 billion for affordable housing over the next decade and assist nearly 380,0000 households.”

Are you searching for your next big wealth-building strategy? Looking for ways to strengthen your portfolio? If so, it may be time to add passive investments to your portfolio if you haven’t already, specifically through turnkey.

Turnkey real estate is an increasingly popular option with a range of benefits, making it an appealing choice for individuals seeking passive income and long-term wealth accumulation. Typically speaking, a turnkey property is fully renovated and ready for immediate rental or occupancy, often managed by a property management company, either affiliated with your turnkey partner or a trusted third-party vendor.

Taxes and regulations impact your bottom line as an investor—and not always in direct or obvious ways. Unfortunately, as soon as you start talking about either one, the average person closes their mind, circling the wagons around their existing worldview and only hearing data points that support it. Look no further than this Yale study, which shows that people perform worse on math problems if the correct answers conflict with their political ideology.

I’ll get it out of the way now: I find both major political parties reprehensible and hypocritical. I’ve voted for each roughly equally over my life.

A new report from Redfin finds that 26% of investor purchases in Q4 2023 were in “low-cost” properties, up significantly from previous years. The increase comes as housing prices remain elevated and mortgage rates stay locked around the 7% range. Meanwhile, a new bill has entered committee in Congress, where senators are deliberating whether to set on track a new law that would tax real estate investors at a graduated rate on every new property that they purchase. We’ll cover both of these stories and why investors must pay close attention to this bill.
