Deal Analysis – 6 Unit Multi Family w/ Value Add Upside

This deal analysis looks at an awesome 6 Unit in Aurora that caught our eye as it had been on the market for a while. After talking with the agent and walking the property, we saw a lot of potential in this one. The units were in good shape but hadn’t been updated for 8 years ago. With some sprucing up, this multi family will have some upside in rents.

This property closed Q3 – 2020.

Conclusion

This was a great fit for our client as there was the opportunity to turn and update units to increase rent and overall upside. Once the building is stabilized at higher rents, it can be refinanced to pull capital back out. The investor plans on using a non-recourse loan on the refi. A smooth transaction with great cooperation on both sides.
