The Before...

We purchased this 4-unit property in Albany in August - the cash flow was what we were seeking, where we could make income without worrying about the studio apartment. We knew this unit was not quite at the same condition as the others, which were in far better shape. We also knew it would be vacant when the property was turned over to us and that we could have our way with it. This generates a nice opportunity that other investors might overlook.

If you haven’t read our “How to Successfully Rent a Unit Without a Realtor” or “Effectively Screening a Tenant as a Landlord“ post, those are helpful in conjunction with this post.
Some big questions you may ask are: Once I have good tenants in place, how do I keep them from leaving? How do I avoid vacancies? If I dislike my current tenant, how do I get them out once their lease is up? These are a few of the points we will touch on.

​Did you know that 37% of the United States rents their home or the equivalent of nearly 44 million households and over 111 million tenants? You can have your share of that demand if you so choose. But real estate agents usually want their cut too. Realtors will take a full month’s rent in commission between the renting agent and the owner’s agent (The property owner pays this, nothing comes out of the tenant’s pocket, depending on the state you own your rentals). In our case, one of our units had been vacant for 3 months before we got it rented again. To lose another month of income on top of that would have been devastating! I am here to tell you that you can avoid losing valuable rent, but you do have to put in the time to make it happen. There are a few tricks to getting this all done if take the correct steps. This post should guide you in the right direction.

The multi-family market has been a surprising subset of the general real estate market in Lower Fairfield County. At Blast REI, we have been seeking homeowners who don't have the patience to continue up-keep of the property and landlord duties for these properties. The reasons are simple: we (this market) need inventory, and would pay cash for these types of properties. On a more broad scale, we have a set of buyers seeking this type of inventory as quickly as possible. Let's delve into the major multi-family markets in this area, specifically Norwalk, Fairfield, and Stamford:

Do you own a rental property either in the same town or city as you live? Or maybe own something a bit further away?
Recently we have been asked a lot about our rental properties, and how we avoid certain issues that may come up. So our goal is to get into those questions a bit in this blog. Eventually we will go into more detail, but for now we will hit several aspects of rental property management, shallowly. Then, we will write more on each topic in the future.
