How to get a proof of funds with no money

Not all proof of funds are created equal.  This one is vastly superior because it also has a matching current bank statement.  Why do you need a POF?  Because it shuts up the Realtors!  When a offer comes into a Realtor, the Realtor immediately begins to play God with the transaction.  They are judging the offer to see should they recommend the Client sign it!  They will call the Lender to see if this offer is legit.  When they call, the office will tell them “Yes, Geoff Nowlin is pre-qualified with us”.  That is the checkmate, the Realtor has to believe, they have no choice. 

This video shows how a Realtor might judge your offer against other competing offers.  Take a peek and call with questions.  If you are in need of this killer POF, enclosed is the link to get it.  Tell Keith, I said hello. Happy Hunting.

What to do when the double close is unavailable

 What to do when the double close is unavailable. 

It is possible that a double closing is unavailable.  Doesn’t matter what the reason.  It could be “illegal”.  Rarely the case.  It could be that Title Company policy says “no double closing”.  It could be that no Title Company in your area knows how to double close.  Doesn’t matter, if this is the case, switch to Transactional Funding.

Here's the idea: Borrow 100% of the money at 2% per day.  Borrow for just one day.  Meaning, you have your closing to purchase today and you’re closing to sell tomorrow.  I affectionately call it the Today/Tomorrow Closing.  

You can borrow this money from a hard money lender.  You must have both closings ready and scheduled otherwise, the HML will not do it.  Mentally prepare yourself for this strategy to be rare.  But, from time to time, you may encounter a house at a wholesale price that can be turned very quickly.  This would be the candidate for Transactional Funding. 

If you run into one of these and need help, just call.

How to make a real estate contract assignable?!

 How to make a real estate contract assignable.

In the old days you would write this in the Buyer Line on the real estate contract: Geoff Nowlin and/or assigns.   The and/or assigns does work legally and as it relates to contract law.  The problem with and/or assigns is that it can put doubt in the Seller’s mind.  The Seller may think; who is buying the house really?  I don’t understand this?  I think I will take the other guy’s contract.  So instead of and/or assigns.

Use: “Buyer may choose how to hold title in any corporation, LLC, partnership, family limited partnership, sole proprietorship, trust, personally or any legal entity.  Vesting changes shall be done in advance of COE in order not to postpone the COE and are at Buyer’s discretion.”  

Notice that I did not use the words “and/or assigns”, that is on purpose.  Should the Seller be queasy or nervous.  If any Realtor asks; “What about this vesting paragraph?”.  You can simply say, we have not decided which corporation we want the property in.  We will get with our Lawyer and decide this before closing.  Which sounds perfectly logical.  

The truth is that you want this language in the contract so it makes your contract assignable at will by YOU!  In some States assignability is a check box.  Like California, so don’t check the box, just add the vesting paragraph to an addendum.  Remember, anything in an addendum supersedes anything in the contract.  In Colorado, the very first line of the contract says “NOT ASSIGNAMBLE”.  You simply add the vesting paragraph to the addendum and vola, your CO contract becomes assignable.  Happy wholesaling, call with questions.

High End Quadruplex cash flow

 High End Quadruplex cash flow.


Guess what?  High End Phoenix Quad’s don’t cash flow.  Duh, no one should be surprised by that.  This blog is a follow up to yesterdays.  Sellers of quad’s are hilarious.  They tell me baloney stories like

  1. You can raise rents to 1 million per month.  Nope, you can’t.  There is a thing called COMPS.  The job of the renter dictates what they can pay in rent.  Every Seller thinks you can just magically increase the rent $500 per month.  It is just not so.  Try it for yourself.  Then let me know how it worked. 

  2. They have 100% Occupancy.  What, no way in hell that is true.  Every time a tenant moves out, the landlord has to go in an repair/clean.  This takes a moment and by obvious logic, it is impossible to have 100% occupancy. 

  3. If you put enough down it will cash flow.  Ha.  Duh.  That is true but that would eat up all your cash and ruin your ROI.  In my world, a property must cash flow near 100% financed or I am not interested. 

  4. Cap Rates don’t count in this market.  Wrong.  Capitalization Rate (the amount of money the property throws off per year) is always, always, always important.  In my world, if it doesn’t throw off at least 7% to profit, I don’t want the building.  If you are like me, you got into this business to make money not to lose money. 

  5. No evictions at my buildings!  Wrong, sellers try to tell me they never ever ever have to evict.  I just don’t buy it. 

  6. No repairs at my buildings!  Really!  All your tenants work at Home Depot and can fix everything without calling the Landlord.  I don’t buy it. You would be smart to 

  7. No Reserves!  Reserves are moneys set aside for the huge repairs.  Like the roof, driveway, HVAC, etc. Smart investors hold back 5% of the rents in a separate account for these big purchases.  Is it not true that the earth is consuming a piece of the roof every day?  Sure it is and you had better plan ahead for it. 

Summary, don’t fall for Sellers claims.  Do you due diligence and crunch your number to the dollar.  If you need help doing that, feel free to call.  Would be happy to help.
