Here’s how we Flip Houses all over the U.S.

Here at Diamond Equity, we flip houses all over the U.S. We have a few favorite states, but are equipped to do a deal anywhere through our Virtual Offer system. Here’s how it works:

A seller sends photos using our Virtual Offer app. We evaluate the condition from the photos and obtain comps and market data from Zillow and other paid national real estate information sources. We schedule a zoom call and present the offer face to face.

Once under contract, we hire a local appraiser to confirm our underwriting and a local inspector to professionally inspect the property. Often, we find an agent who has represented rehabbed properties as the listing agent and tap them for any contractor resources need to prepare the house for retail sale.

We fund the deal, manage any repairs, and sell the deal without ever stepping foot into the house or the state where the property is located. This is all done by our National Acquisition Managers working from our Chicago location.

Our ideal profit on a deal like this is $100,000 or more to justify the risk. Our average actual profit on deals like this is currently about $50,000. In unknown markets, we always need to expect more as a margin of safety.

Our National Acquisition Manager is a 20% partner on each deal, bringing none of their own capital and none of their own leads. The average partner split, calculated at 20% is $10,000. They run the deal start to finish. The Acquisition Manager is the captain of the deal-directing, with the help of senior leadership, the negotiation, acquisition, sale prep, and sale.

Right now we rank highly in google for many terms and many locations throughout the U.S. and also generate leads using direct mail. We are looking for a new partner to join the National Team. This person would ideally be located in, or willing to locate to the Chicago region to work from our office, however, for a candidate with similar experience and a track record of closing deals at a distance, we may consider 100% remote work.

If joining our team and working directly with Aaron Lockhart, Vice President, and myself sounds exciting, please email me a resume and a cover letter detailing your deal making experience.

Are You Interested in Lending $925,000 for 6 months at 10% Interest?

We just received a verbal agreement on a $900,000 purchase which will be cleaned out and immediately listed for sale at $1,349,000. This closing will occur in 2 weeks or less. Here’s how it works:

  1. You lend $925,000 to the LLC which owns the house.
  2. The loan pays you 10% interest & 2 points origination ($18,500)
  3. Your loan is secured by a 1st position mortgage & note
  4. I personally guarantee repayment with interest, regardless of whether the deal turns a profit
  5. The $925,000 must wire to the title company 1 day prior to closing, which we anticipate to be October 29.
  6. Because this deal may sell & return capital in less than 3 months, we pay a minimum return based on 90 days. The minimum return will be $41,308.22 calculated as $22,808.23 (10% for 90 days) + $18,500 (2 points)
  7. Upon repayment, you’ll send the title company a notarized release and mail us the original note marked “paid”.

If you are interested in discussing this deal further, please reply to my email. If you are interested in lending to us in the future at amounts smaller than this current opportunity, please sign up at www.FundRehabDeals.com

Hurricanes are Responsible for Florida’s Real Estate Booms

Florida real estate has been one of the most “Boom & Bust” real estate markets in the U.S. since air conditioning in homes was invented. One reason for this, in addition to warm Winters & favorable state tax code, is the destruction wrought by the hurricanes.

Hurricanes provide a bust after the storm hits because many choose to Just Sell it as is, rather than rebuild. One of my friends called 3 days after Helene last week and offered me his house for less than his mortgage balance. He just wanted out and combined with the insurance, could sell for less than he owed. I assume many people feel exactly like him right now.

The issue here for me, as a flipper, is that I cannot gauge the demand for the renovated house here-as I expect a large number of houses will hit the market in the next 12 months under the exact same circumstances. Here comes the oversupply for the Florida market.

The demand also weakens as many would-be buyers will hold off for a year or two until the region rebuilds. This is partially because of the fear of further hurricane destruction and partially because many of our favorite restaurants, ice cream stores, and other businesses are not there right now. Hopefully they can rebuild, but many will not. The market is made up of those hunting for bargains-and the offers are lower than they used to be.

See Cape Coral for the numbers. This is the result of this phenomenon 2 years after Hurricane Ian. Not a blow out, but this market tops the lists of softening markets way ahead of most of the U.S.

Now for the Hurricane Boom

Florida is unique in that much of the outdated inventory is destroyed by the Hurricane cycle. Many with insurance simply sell quick and walk away by choice. Those underinsured or uninsured are forced to sell and walk away. More of this distressed activity occurs near water-where values and demand are always strong.

The buyers either rebuild the existing house with higher end finishes-driving up the value OR tear down and rebuild a much higher end house to suit their needs-also driving the value up. Now you end up with $1M+ renovated homes or $3M-$5M new constructions mansions instead. This in turn, drives up desirability for more wealth to become attracted to the neighborhood and pay more for the other existing homes in the area.

This cycle of boom takes a while after each Hurricane, but viewed over a 75 year period, it’s easy to understand how Miami, Ft Lauderdale, & Naples came to be. On the West Coast of Florida near Clearwater & St Pete, the smart money is buying near the water with similar expectations of future growth. I’d say if you’re patient, you’re probably right, but over the next 12-36 months it’s likely going to be a bumpy ride.

Jewels of Wisdom Newsletter – Commercial Real Estate Case Study

Good Morning!

Things have been improving in over the past few weeks because of the aggressive Fed rate cut. We certainly have noticed an increase in demand in our business, selling a dozen of our properties and closing about a dozen more in the past 2 weeks. Pending home sales are a leading indicator of closed deals, which means the recent NAR reported August Pending Home Sales increase is a sign of increased activity for all of us in the residential real estate industry.

Weekly Wealth of Wisdom
We Nearly Got Scammed for $600,000!

“For wisdom is better than jewels, and all that you may desire cannot compare with her.” -Proverbs 8:11

You might remember my mention of a $600,000 deal we were anticipating funding in Hollywood, Los Angeles, CA 2 weeks ago. It turns out, if it seems too good to be true, it probably is. We were the target of a wire fraud attempt.

Here were the red flags:

  1. Unbelievable Deal – Our contract was for $600,000 on a property purchased in 2018 for $1.5M. Scammers will use this setup to suspend your disbelief at the opportunity being presented. A great example of this strategy is when con-man Lustig sold the Eiffel Tower in France – twice!
  2. Suspicious LLC Docs – The LLC Docs presented by the con artist had a 2024 notary date, but the property had been held by the LLC since 2018. The dates didn’t match up. Look out for details like this.
  3. Fast Deadline to Close – “Seller” was pushing for a 10 day closing. His reason was that he was going to lose a $100,000 EMD (earnest money deposit) on a deal in Mexico. He’s ready to sell this property at a $900k loss to avoid a $100K loss? This didn’t add up.
  4. Suspicious ID – The first & last name on his California license were in the wrong locations. Another red flag.

Even before we signed, I was on high alert that this was likely a scam. That original purchase price and the agreed contract price was just too good to be true. We signed the agreement anyway to do our due diligence. We did NOT wire any EMD to the title company. When we sent our local contact, there was a general contractor on site already who confirmed that our “seller” was NOT the owner of the property who hired him. Needless to say, we didn’t move forward and the scammer disappeared.

We found out later that the next few steps in this common real estate scam would have been an email from an account at a very similar domain name to the title company with the wire instructions. For example instead of [email protected], the scammer would use the email [email protected] to send their own wire instructions with their own contact info as the “call to confirm” information.

My own strategy when confirming wiring instructions is the google the name of the title company and see if the phone numbers match. If they don’t, I may take another step and skip trace the number on the wire instructions. These numbers must match somewhere before I call in order for me to send money.

Luckily, we avoided the $600,000 scam and I don’t know what it’s like to lose $600,000. Hopefully we all get a reminder like this to be diligent and NEVER fall victim to a crime like this.

Imagine Selling $1.5 Billion worth of Your Portfolio (podcast)

Dan French was recently on the REI Diamonds Show. He & I discussed his near-perfect timing of the multi-family real estate market before the market collapsed in mid 2022. After assembling a portfolio valued at $2 Billion, he & his partners made the decision to sell the majority beginning in 2019. They completed sales over 2.5 years of $1.5 Billion, leaving a portfolio of $500 Million of the best properties in the best locations. Listen to the story here.

Jewels of Wisdom Newsletter – We got Married!

Yesterday I married my life partner for the past 7 years & best friend, Caity, out on Lake Michigan in Chicago.

It’s been a busy week getting ready for the wedding-cutting into my normal writing time, so this week’s newsletter is going to be a bit shorter than usual. Since our honeymoon is scheduled for a bit later this year, I’ll pick up this newsletter next week. Now I’m headed back to enjoy the rest of this weekend with my beautiful, loving bride!

Jewels of Wisdom Newsletter – My Next Million Dollars

Good Morning!!

Today I’d like to begin by shouting out the unsung heros of the residential real estate market: The Buyer’s Agent. It’s gotten tough these past 2 years for all agents, but Buyer’s Agents in particular have gotten unfairly challenged by the recent NAR Settlement making it a bit more difficult to earn commissions.

Ask yourself, who is responsible for keeping the real estate market moving? Who convinces the buyer to submit nearly every single retail offer? The Buyer’s Agent. Who keeps that buyer accountable to actually deposit the earnest money? Inspection schedules & repair negotiations? Actually following through and closing their deal? The Buyer’s Agent. On behalf of all fix & flip investors I say, “THANK YOU!!” The market NEEDS you. 

Here are today’s highlights:

  • 15 Unit Apartment Building For Sale
  • 48 Fix & Flip Deals For Sale
  • How to Legally Avoid Taxes (Podcast Released)
  • 3 Opportunities for You to Earn 10% interest & 2 points on your money

This week a shout out goes to Al Foda, Sharon Love-Bates, & Patricia Fagiola.  All 3 are real estate agents, and I offered this deal: They make an introduction to the seller, and whether we were to fix & flip the deal, or wholesale the deal, I’ll pay them 25% of the net profit. I cannot do that with anyone who does not hold a license because of real estate licensing laws. All 3 referred houses that need a renovation. Thank you Al, Sharon, & Patricia!!

How I’ll Make my Next Million Dollars

My next million dollars will come the same way the last few have: the deep work-focus of DECIDING on the RIGHT offer for our next deals. If we choose an offer too low, we will miss the deal. Too high, and we will lose money.

For example, we have been working for months on the right offer for a 100,000 sq. ft. shopping center with 70% vacancy and low population. Shout out to my partner, Craig, for continuing to push on this one. With a $2M-$3M capital improvement project (roof, parking, facade update), and large TI budgets & leasing commissions to fill it up, we simply cannot get this one wrong.

Another shout out goes to Mike Phillips. Instead of recommending I read Deep Work by Cal Newport, he asked for my address and simply sent the book. His timing was perfect. Since I’ve been reading it, my focus has improved and my ability to do “Deep Work” increased. For me, “Deep Work” is the focus needed to construct the RIGHT offers & win deals.

Making offers is the place I watch most wanna-bes fail & 100% of successful investors excel. It’s the big wall of resistance, the unknown, the place of challenge. If the offer is accepted, you must perform. Those who DO the business, MAKE the offer. Making more & larger offers is how I’ll make another million (or many!)

How to Legally Avoid Paying Taxes (Podcast) 

Tax strategy is a skill Warren Buffett taught me early on. It’s one of the many reasons I invest in real estate. Tax Strategist Shauna, and I recorded a recent podcast on how to arrange your life & business in the most tax-efficient manner possible. This is NOT the 1031 Exchange. In fact there is MUCH MORE that can be done to keep more money in your pocket.  Listen here.

A shout out goes to Ken Grant for sending me a 30,000 sq. ft. retail strip center to review.  This one is being marketed quietly, which I love. Unfortunately it is in Cook County and specifically one of the highest taxing districts in the U.S. At more than $225K per year in property tax, this is not a deal I can make work. The leases are NNN, so the tenants technically pay those taxes, but long term that leaves less dollars available for me to raise my base rents over time. Long term, these are harder to lease and go up in value more slowly-all due to the ineffective property tax system in the local area.

How I Made my 1st Million Dollars

“For wisdom is better than jewels, and all that you may desire cannot compare with her.” -Proverbs 8:11

At the recent Commercial Academy Mastermind, I presented on How I Made my First Million Dollars. There were 2 books my mentor suggested which subsequently led to Diamond Equity closing more than $3M in the next 12 months.

The first is Robert Ringer’s Winning Through Intimidation. This is Robert’s strategy used to close dozens of large commercial real estate transactions. We simply translated that to residential real estate.

The second is Robert Cialdini’s Influence. This is the treatise on Psychology and explains the  6 Principles of Persuasion. Once again, we translated these principles into Diamond Equity. This was in 2015 and we earned over $3M in profit that following year.

2 Lessons from the Commercial Academy Mastermind
in Cleveland this past week

  1. Make Your Brokers Rich!! Many people try to squeeze the broker and avoid paying them at all. My goal is to pay brokers AND even bring them in on the deal. Maybe they’re capable or running the project, leasing, and collecting rents OR just bringing the deal to the table. I want to pay my broker extra and be the 1st call they make on their next deal.
  2. Appraisals are NOT Value – The actual value of a property is the price at which a buyer will buy & a seller will sell. I often laugh when I see some of the appraisal values because I know that no one would pay that “appraised” value. A better metric of value would be an offer in-hand, from a real buyer willing to close. If you have a property and need an “appraisal” / offer like this, please reply to this email with details.

Recently, Andy Weiner was on the show discussing his redevelopment strategy for dying U.S. shopping malls-a favorite topic of mine lately. You can listen to this podcast on redeveloping malls here.

Recent Podcast Episode – Tax Lien Investing with Angela Duncan

Angela & I discuss creating wealth through passive investing and earning double digit returns. Changing your financial future begins with a decision. It is a good idea to first decide to get rich, then map out the plan for the steps to get your there.  Once you have cash, finding a safe & reliable return on that cash provides that passive income to carry you through the rest of your life with options. Listen to the full REI Diamonds episode here.

Getting Offers Accepted without Being the Highest

“For wisdom is better than jewels, and all that you may desire cannot compare with her.” -Proverbs 8:11

Last year we sold & closed 330 deals. More than half of those deals were sold to buyers who presented offers which were NOT the highest price. This is because we, as sellers, often choose the STRONGEST offer, not necessarily the highest offer. Here’s how to present the Strongest Offer (blog post)

Recent Podcast Episode – Turn Key Rental Market Selection with Zach Lemaster

Zach & I discuss the merits of selecting the RIGHT markets in the U.S. for rent & price appreciation. Many markets in the U.S. are primed for growth – although many of us are not already living in those markets. This can be intimidating-buying an out of state rental or two-but well worth the effort over the long term. Listen here: Turn Key Rental Market Selection Podcast

The Wealth of Wisdom

“Wisdom is more profitable than silver, and her wages are better than gold” -Proverbs 3:14

This week’s Wealth of Wisdom is the process of Cash for Keys. Personally, I hate evictions. They usually take 3-4 months where I am not collecting rent. So if I have a $1,500 per month rental, I’m out $4,500-$6,000 in lost rent while going through the eviction. I view this as my budget for the Cash I’m willing to go up to in exchange for the keys – the tenant leaving immediately.

Of course I would start with less and say to the tenant, on the spot, in person, “Listen, I’m going to the attorney’s office when I leave here and filing the eviction. it’s going to run me about $500. If you can be out by Friday (or whenever a few days later would be), I’ll give you that money instead. Can you be out by then?”

It’s a negotiation around the amount of money and how fast they can leave. The more time you give them to get out, the less likely that they will ever leave. I never give more than 7 days before filing the eviction if they haven’t left.

My friend, Mark Ainley runs GC Realty, a volume property manager serving the greater Chicagoland region. He recently wrote a more detailed explanation of the process.  You can read that post here.

Here’s Why I Write the “Jewels of Wisdom” Newsletter

I write this newsletter each week because I am hoping you buy a deal or two, become one of my Private Lenders, or perhaps, maybe you & I become business partners and do a deal (or a few hundred) together.

Our company, Diamond Equity, has flipped 146 deals this year so far. We have another 117 deals either under construction, or under contract awaiting closing. Between Atlanta & the Phila Tri-State area, we have 9,175 leads – Sellers who have called us to buy their property. This is beyond our team’s current capacity and we are looking to add another partner in each the Atlanta & the Philly/New Jersey region. Details can be found here.

One thing I know by my own experience is building a volume house flipping business. Next week I’m going to discuss my favorite market in the U.S. to build a house flipping business that would generate $500,000 per year in gross profit. Keep your eyes peeled for that one!

Why I am Selling My Entire Portfolio

1031 Exchange Coming Soon

Got a Deal I Can Buy? Email me Details!

If you’ve been following the Jewels of Wisdom newsletter, you’ve probably noticed a small portfolio of apartments for sale. They’re at the bottom of this email and 3 of 5 are sold so far. Here’s why: I am selling my entire portfolio to simplify things and keep my focus on Diamond Equity, our growing house flipping business.

These apartments and my single family rentals have done well. They’ve appreciated a bit, I’ve done quite a bit of improvements and the cash flow is now solid. However, for me, these units are more like a savings account than my main business. Viewed that way, the number of emails from management, the number of evictions, & the necessary refi’s due every 5 years is making this savings account unsustainable from my point of view. So I am selling them all.

I’m Looking for a 1031 Exchange Property Priced $2M-$5M with Some Upside in Rents.  Apts, Retail, or Industrial.  If You Have a Deal Available, Please Email the Details.

That said, I will do a 1031 Exchange into the right deal, if one becomes available in time. To me, the right deal is going to be in the price range of $2 million – $5 million and have low rents. I need to be able to invest additional money, if needed, over the next 2-5 years and push those rents & the value upward. Otherwise I’ll just pay the tax due and keep lending out my money at 2 points & 10% interest to fix & flip deals.

$350,000,000 in Apartments without Syndication Partners

Many of us, myself included, begin real estate investing without any money. We are taught that raising capital is the method to make our success – an it is a great way to get to the next level. I offer 10% and 2 points on short term loans to my Private Lenders.

But this week’s REI Diamond Show episode with Gino Barbaro highlights the next level AFTER syndications, which seems like the most ideal position to end up: Owning $350M in assets WITHOUT the hassles of syndication partners  Check out Gino’s REI Diamonds Show episode here.

How I Made My First Million Dollars

At the Commercial Academy event in Cleveland on August 23-25, I will share the details on How I Made My First Million Dollars.  I only invite 3 people to attend each event so that I can spend some time meeting each person that attends as my guest. For this event, I already had those 3 people register. If you missed out, maybe I’ll catch you at the next event in January…

Be the BEST Partner Possible

Team First & Exceed Expecations

Bad partners are terrible, and Great partners will make you rich. My personal motto has always been to be the BEST partner possible. I want to bring twice as much value to every partnership as any other partner is contributing. When they do the same, that partnership will exceed everyone’s expectations. Everyone is grateful to be in business like this.

As I’ve become the senior partner in most of our deals, I’ve been blessed to be able to guide and grow some of my partners to the next level of their professional and personal development. It has been a real honor for me and I am humbled to be in this position. The strongest suggestion I often make in during these conversations is a timely book recommendation made from my reading list.

View my reading list here.  These books have been the most impactful in my own career and have driven our results here at Diamond Equity for more than a decade. There is one more book which is even more powerful than any on that list. That book is also on more millionaires’ bookshelves than any other book. That book is the Bible, and it is the foundation of my life & career.
