Strategic Planning addresses the questions of whether your properties will satisfy your every need for management, cash flow, estate planning, or growth now and in the future. Strategic Planning starts by evaluating your likes and dislikes and goals, and then determining if there’s anything out there that helps you better accomplish what you and your family are going for.

Hold/Exchange Analysis
(Internal Rate of Return Analysis)

Should you stick with a property you currently hold or should you exchange it for something else? If you exchange it for something else, should it be another apartment building or a different asset class?

Should you diversify and exchange into multiple properties? This analysis can demonstrate any “what if” scenario you can imagine and takes into consideration:

  • Expected rent growth
  • Vacancy variations
  • Expense variations
  • Needed capital expenses & planned upgrades
  • Interest rate variations for variable loans
  • Pre-tax cash flow
  • After-tax cash flow
  • Mortgage pay-down
  • CAP rate variations for pricing
  • Estimated capital gains tax

This analysis will compare the potential performance for a currently held property and a potential exchange property. It will chart the performance of both properties side by side for your comparison and review. This is the most sophisticated way of evaluating an idea and planning a course of action. Hold/Exchange Analyses are complimentary and part of our business plan to build better relationships and add value to your real estate investing.
