5 Things Every Real Estate Investor Needs to Know!

Every real estate investor is an idealist in the beginning. While the prospect of large profits and huge income streams is always appealing, possessing a working knowledge of what you are getting yourself into is essential to success. Even if you are a seasoned real estate investor it is unrealistic to assume you know everything. Due diligence and continuing education are critical to making money as a real estate investor. Here are five basics that every new investor should consider:

1. 9 to 5 Does not apply: Investing in real estate requires putting in the time. You may need to knock on doors, attend after hours networking meetings and do some reading to educate yourself. You will need to call, email, direct mail, network, follow leads and be ready to act when an opportunity presents itself. It will require consistent effort to be successful. Often, deals will go to whoever is willing to outwork everyone else. You should expect to work nights and weekends just to keep up with your competition. As simple as being an investor is at times, it takes persistence and hard work to be successful.
2. Wrap Your Head Around the Process: No one can be an expert in every area of real estate investing, but you must possess an understanding of the process. While an understanding of the process is crucial for the offer and purchase, it is equally important for what your plans are after the deal is done. If you are looking to flip a property, you will need a thorough inspection to know what the rehab costs will be, have a reliable contractor, correctly assess resale value etc. If you want to add rental properties to your portfolio you will need to know what’s happening in the current rental market, what is required as a landlord and what the current tenant, landlord laws are in your area. It may save you money in the long run to hire industry professionals such as a real estate agent or real estate manager to assist you. The better you understand the process, the better investor you will be.
3. Find Your Comfort Zone: While large income streams and huge profits are entirely possible, it takes time to learn the industry. Finding traction may mean taking smaller deals at the start. Working on smaller deals may lower your risk while giving you an opportunity to learn the business and still make a profit. In most cases, you will not be able to retire off the income from your first investment. You may need to temper your expectations at the beginning. Making less money to get a deal done is not a bad thing when you are just starting out. Focusing on smaller deals inside a geographic area you’re comfortable with is one of the easiest ways to get your feet wet and learn the business.
4. Only Take on What You Can Handle: It may not be realistic to go from zero to hero overnight. Even seasoned real estate professionals find handling multiple projects a challenge. Growing too fast can be as detrimental to your business as not growing at all. Taking on a deal that you aren’t prepared for increases risk and could potentially cost you money. There is a big difference between following leads and closing deals. It can take months or even years to get the hang of real estate investing. In growing too quickly, you can damage your business in a way that may be difficult to recover from especially if you do not have large cash reserves. If the speed of your growth exceeds your ability to perform due diligence or effectively assess the risk of potential investments, you’re growing too fast.
5. Be a realist: If you have been bitten by the real estate bug you will always be on the lookout for more deals. Successful investors make decisions based on the facts and strive to not allow their emotions to get in the way. This requires a system to provide you with an accurate picture of the costs, risks and financial benefits of a property before you close. Manipulating the data to convince yourself that a property can make money when it can’t won’t be a good business practice. Enough negative cash flow will eventually destroy your business. True numbers do not lie. A cash flow analysis will be a great help in determining the potential profitability of a prospective property. Once you own the property you will need to have a system to evaluate key metrics to ensure sustainable property performance.

In my 18 years as a property manager, I’ve seen these concepts, as simple as they may be, make or break many neophyte real estate investors. Though this list is far from exhaustive it may provide the new investor with some “food for thought” and a starting place for further discovery.

Can You Feel the Brrrrr?

You’re a rugged sort, living here where you do. And when you start to feel the cold coming you’re all ready with your sweaters and mufflers, hats and gloves, your boots and maybe even hand warmers for your pockets. But what about your home or business? As a very friendly property management company we’re going to give you some tips for getting through to Spring as cozily and safely as possible.


You don’t want your pipes to freeze and here are some easy ways to eliminate the chance of that:

• If you’re planning on being out, keep the heat at no less than 55 degrees Fahrenheit. 
• Open up doors and cabinets such as under sinks and closets where pipes are located. Keep doors at least slightly ajar between unheated and heated rooms. 
• In severe cold snaps, if you have sinks in low-use work areas that could potentially freeze, turn the water on just slightly to have it run into the sink and keep a slight flow of water moving through it. 
• If you are an owner, you want to be sure that all pipes are insulated in the areas of your building that might drop below freezing; think basements, attics, crawl spaces or storage spaces. If you are renting, be in touch with your manager or rental agency to make sure that this has been taken care of. It’s a good idea to check before the cold is really here. Schedule an appointment to have everything looked at before you need it. 
• Ownership is true in this situation also: seal up any openings in your property that could be allowing cold air inside, paying close attention to open areas around pipes, vents, and electrical wiring. If you’re a renter, do as above and check with the people/company who can help.

If the temperature has gone below freezing overnight and pipes have frozen or cracked – which can happen with unprotected pipes - here are a few steps to take immediately:

• Call your management company without delay.
• Bundle up and turn off the water flow to the property to prevent more damage. 
• Locate all of the cracks before pipes thaw and make note of their location. If you are an owner, consult a plumbing professional to address any cracked pipe issues before thawing and to prevent additional water damage. 
• In the event of no cracks, you may proceed with attempting to thaw the pipes with a hair dryer and/or allow them to thaw on their own. Never attempt to thaw a frozen pipe with a blowtorch or any type of open flame, as this could ignite a fire, jeopardize safety and cause even more damage to your property. 
• Keep the faucet open when thawing frozen pipes to allow water to begin flowing through it.

Beyond damage to your property, you have to watch out for yourself, too. And you don’t want yourself or anyone else getting hurt in a parking lot or walkway. Slips and falls are the second-leading cause of unintentional deaths, according to the National Safety Council. Here are tips for walking safely in the winter weather from the University of Utah and Iowa State University:

• Give yourself plenty of time to get to your destination to avoid carelessness. 
• Wear shoes and boots with good traction. 
• Walk at a slower pace. 
• Stay on designated walkways. 
• Use the handrail when using stairs and entering and exiting buildings. 
• Put your gloves on and keep your hands out of your pockets while walking — that decreases your center of gravity and balance. 

And if you need a visual, think about walking like a penguin when you’re on the ice. The waddle we all love to see keeps your center of gravity over your front leg and will help keep you upright. Spread your feet out slightly, to increase your center of gravity, and take small steps.

At Kinetic, we are always looking to improve and welcome your suggestions. Please give us a call if you’re looking for a property to own or rent or if you need a wonderful management company. We’d be delighted to work with you. Now make sure you have some hot chocolate at hand.

It’s getting HOT Out There!

If you’re in the market for a commercial space to rent, or if you’ve been thinking about it and trying to budget for it, you’re probably aware that 2016 has been a big year. Fasten your seat belts, because 2017 is going to be even bigger. Local experts agree that the New Year is going to be HOT for properties. Colliers forecasts increases in quoted rental rates in the near term, and others predict that as tech companies continue to move into the area space will become more limited.

The good news is that this means more people are working and that the economy is humming along. The bad news could be that the longer you wait to secure an office and a lease, the more you will be paying for it. It never fails. Supply and demand.   

 

We’d like to help you find the perfect property for your business. Whether you work alone or with someone else, or even if you work with a horde, we’ll do our very best to find the spot for you. We represent many options. You can be at ground level showing off your wares, or higher up and enjoying the view. You can run your restaurant or your hair salon. The business is your business. Finding the space for you is ours.

Once you become a tenant, you can schedule your rent payments online knowing that your information is secure and protected. You can also sign up for automatic reminders. You can fill out a maintenance request form online, as well. We also have an emergency phone number that you can call, should you need to. No one likes an emergency, but we’ll be there for you! To see all of the reasons and the convenience involved in renting from us, please check out our Tenants Page. Not to mention how diverse and terrific our properties are!

We’re professional and friendly, and we promise to treat you with all of the courtesies that you deserve. The same way you treat your own clients. We work hard to make renting a positive experience for all parties. Should any differences come up where an owner is concerned, we will smooth the way for everyone. We promise.

At Kinetic, we are always looking to improve and welcome your suggestions. Just give us a call and let’s find your space!
