"Fire and Fury" is a Must Read!

Curious as to why the media was so solidly pumping Michael Wolfe's "Fire and Fury' I ordered a copy.

Having just completed reading it, my previous stance during the election of 2016 that Donald Trump was NOT qualified to be president is re-enforced.

The basic premise as written from a reporter's point of view is that (Trump) "-- didn't have the wherewithal to adequately function in his job."

And, it is my hope -- we survived the incompetence that Trump is raining down upon us.

A client from London recently stated that he is raising "European Money" in an effort to acquire US real estate assets because the "Trump Affect" has driven the value of the US dollar down to where US real estate assets are more affordable to European and Middle Easter Businessmen.

Another potential client from Australia told me via text message the Chinese investors who acquired US real estate assets over the past few years are quietly seeking to sell them -- given the potential profit they could bring.

My guess is that they want to sell before they find out the equity they acquired would be millions rather than billions on them.

With the current stock market volatility - up and down, and the Trump effect on US Ally relationships, this is cause for concern from a "businessman president" who truly doesn't know what he is doing.

It's my hope Congress finally realizes their success is hinged to giving Trump a permanent golf vacation via Impeachment.

No Tell Motels For Sale!

To every Las Vegas Loving Gambler!

Placing chips on a table or coins in a slot won't give you anywhere near the Return On Investment (ROI) that a Real Estate Investment should bring.

I'm NOT saying investing in Las Vegas Real Estate is easy.  Far from it.

But, the ROI will be (Not Guaranteed) better than making a wager at one of our fine Las Vegas Strip Resorts.

Anyway, there are 3 Motels available for sale and they could be acquired for +/-$10 Million!



That's three properties with 123 units located NOT ON THE STRIP!

These are non-gaming properties and they are fully functional as we speak.

Interested in the details? email me.

If you want to acquire a Nevada Gaming Property, send me an email, too!

I have one listed.

More later...

Quick! It won't last! There's an 8% Cap Rate CRE Property For Sale in Las Vegas!

This is to alarm you!

I am NOT seeing property prices going down!

I am seeing them stabilize and in some case go up!

I know all of you are searching for that Mystical Steal!

Well, here it is!

That's right!

There is an 8.5% Cap Rate CRE Multi-Family Property in Las Vegas that needs to be acquired.

Generally, in Las Vegas, NV, most properties that would be listed at or near an 8% Cap Rate are properties I would NOT recommend to you.  These properties will have lots of hair on them and trying to trim the excess follicles will be daunting.

The problems could be that the tenant leases have less than 3 years remaining -- with no more tenant options; or they are a weak non-denominational church (type) tenant; or they are basing the 8% on whether or not the new owner will be able to re-lease the remaining vacancy up in a short time period post escrow (Not Likely).

So, if any agent, whether they are here in Las Vegas or elsewhere, is telling you, you can acquire a property for an 8% Cap Rate, please expect the sales prices to be more or less in the 6.5% Cap Rate range.  At least your chance of a better tenant or longer lease exists with that property.

BUT, with that said, this multi-family/hotel apartment property is netting +/-$20,500 per month!

Yes, it is in Downtown Las Vegas; and you could walk away with the 'that's a down and dirty property' attitude.

Yet, the tenants here are long term and the property sits right smack in the City of Las Vegas Redevelopment district.

Besides, housing is needed in this area; this is housing; and Tony Hsieh is building an apartment complex down the street.

If you don't want to buy it, lend me the money, I'll buy it and flip it in a year or so when the price has increased.

Or, I'll refinance it and pay you off.

Interested?
