Don’t lose millions! 3 common errors that multifamily sellers make

In this episode of the Heartland Multifamily Show, Trot and I discuss a topic that's crucial for anyone in the multifamily investment space: the common mistakes made by multifamily property sellers. In our many years of experience, we have identified three significant errors that can cost sellers a substantial amount, ranging from tens of thousands to even millions of dollars. These mistakes are not just relevant to the current market conditions but apply to any market.

One of the primary mistakes we delve into is the emotional attachment sellers often have to their properties. This attachment can lead to unrealistic valuations and expectations, which can significantly hinder the success of a sale. Surprisingly, sellers can be attached emotionally even when it’s an investment property. Watch this episode to learn how to avoid making these mistakes and keep potentially millions of dollars in your pocket.

Primal Debt. What is it? Should you be in it?

This episode of the Heartland Multifamily Show is about debt. But surprisingly, this show is not about money. Instead it’s about a concept called “Primal debt.” Not prime debt, not primordial debt, not sub-prime loans, but a different kind of debt. This is the debt that you owe to your ancestors, to the people around you today, and to your future descendants. The debt is paid by living your best life. You owe it to them, all of them, to live the best life you can. You have to appreciate the sacrifices that your ancestors made to give you the life you have today. You owe it to the people around you today to provide them with the best life you can. And you owe it to your children and future grandchildren and so on, to provide the best foundation so they can live their best lives. Watch this episode to learn about a new way to think about your life.

What is DEFCON 1 in multifamily investing?

What is Defcon 3 in Multifamily Real Estate Investing

Today on the Heartland Multifamily Show, Trot and I are talking about Defcon 3. What is it? Why do investors get to Defcon 3? How can you get out of Defcon 3, and what opportunities are there if you want to buy a property that’s at Defcon 3? Defcon 3, meaning Defense Condition 3, is a phrase that dates back to the Cold War. The Defense Condition went from Defcon 5, meaning peaceful but aware of threats, to Defcon 1, which is a full-scale nuclear attack. This analogy also applies to multifamily real estate investing. When you are at Defcon 3, you are inching closer to disaster, but you have the opportunity to right the ship before things get so bad that you can’t fix them. And on the other side of it, if you are an investor who sees another property at Defcon 3 and you have done your due diligence, you can get a good deal to buy and fix up a property that the previous owner has mismanaged. Watch this episode to learn the basics of Defcon 3.
