USA real results

By Dean Letfus

We have been investing in the USA  long enough now to prove the theories around the market there, especially in Memphis, our favourite city.

So here is an example of a package of 3 properties brought 13 months ago.

Purchase Price June 2010 = $133,900

Quoted Net Return = 12.1%

So how is this package doing?

Well actual return over 12 months = 14.81%, over 20% above quoted returns!

And I asked Jim what we could sell these for today to another investor, (not a retail sale but a wholesale sell).
Answer = $150,000.

Current Valuation is around $165,000

So in the worst recession in modern history in the worst housing collapse in USA’s history we have a 14% net return ACHIEVED and over 10% in capital growth plus around 30% equity.

This is not a hoped for outcome, this is actual results.

If you 50% financed these you would have put in say 70K in total including set up.

You could sell today and pocket around 25K, over a 30% return in 12 months.  But why would you when you are getting nearly a 15% return and the properties will be paid off completely in 7 years if you put the cashflow into paying down the debt?

And if you wait for 2 years you can refinance, take all your cash out and turn the 3 houses into 9!!

Any questions??

Any reason why you shouldn’t be enjoying these results??

PS:  We have a half share available in the commercial property and another larger residential project returning 16% net, email me if you’d like more info, dean@massiveaction.co.nz
