Properties can be expensive to maintain, so it is important to understand the whole cost of running one.  Nothing lasts forever, but when do you replace or repair?  How much unexpected expense will come up in the next 5-10 years?  These are important questions but not always so easy to answer.  4G offers assessments of a house’s finish material condition and lifecycle stage so you can plan financially further ahead and more accurately.  We can assess things such as:

• flooring
• tiling/grout
• cabinetry & counters
• fixtures
• major appliances
• Decks/porches
• parging

If you manage to find the perfect rental with plenty of cash flow consider yourself among the lucky ones.  Not all properties are performing to their full potential.  Are you considering a more long term plan to get a higher bottom line out of your investment?  This can be done by renovating to increase the rental price of units, or a more extensive renovation could potentially increase the number of units within the existing structure.  Not all buildings have the feasibility to increase the number of units, but how do you know what is possible?  We can help!

Our experience with both construction, rental properties, and code requirements for multi-unit dwellings will be drawn from and applied to this assessment.  Your report will  help to identify the ability of the existing building to be modified and show you some of the possibilities available to maximize the revenue it is generating.  

Long term investors think big, as in big picture and bigger profits.  They will not necessarily turn down a great property that is not performing because the house sitting on it is not suitable for a profiting rental.  There are many ways to turn a great property into cashflow.  Maybe it’s a tear down and new build with more units, converting a dated bungalow to a triplex, or maybe it is best to split the lot and build two instead.  What does the land accommodate and what does zoning allow for?  Let us do the research for you and show you available options before jumping into a purchase or passing up what could be the best investment of your life..

Knowledge is power, so best to arm yourself with as much as you can when investing your hard earned money to make sure that your money works for you instead of you for it.  Rental or sale market analysis can also be part of the package.  Let us know what you need so we can tailor the report to you.
