Landlords Have No Friends

  • Tenants- No – Most Relationships One Sided – Terrible
  • Lenders – No – Never-Never Land of Loans – Difficult
  • Tax People – No – Can’t Wait to Get Profits from Sale
  • Governments – No– More and More Regs – Federal, State, Local
  • The Press -No – Portray Landlords as Villains
  • Relatives – No – Few Like Time and Effort Necessary (See Tax People)

Many “Experts” believe that Investments that require constant and regular contributions of cash and time be shunned. Yet over eight million Landlords own over 72% of residential rental properties – over ten million properties.
Few Landlords realize that the Investment is based primarily on Equity Creation – Appreciation and Loan Decline – Not Income Generation.

Many Landlords simply fail to address the impact of negative cash flow and rarely compute their break-even when calculating their return.

The Top 7 Issues

  1. High Turnover Rates– Very Costly
  2. Late Rent Payments– Chasing Tenants
  3. Legal Troubles– Pro Tenant Laws and Regulations Growing
  4. Staying Organized– Can Cause Stress and Legal Problems
  5. Frequent Evictions– An eviction is a stressful and costly process.
  6. Excessive Stress Over Property Management Responsibilities
  7. Relationships with Family and Heirs – Low Interest in Continuing

Equity Sharing Joint Venture

A Different Solution For Landlords

A Joint Venture Mis-Named “Equity Sharing”
(Not A Rental Relationship)

The “Secret Sauce”

“When a Person Invests, Their Mind and Actions Follow”

Equity Sharing works because the Parties are both creators and participants.

Every Agreement is unique to the needs of the Parties.

In addition, Covest Properties provides on-going problem solving and mediation support to the parties for the duration of the Agreement.
Opportunity for Investor to Access Equity – No Bank

AND… multiple exit strategies.

Problem 5 – Frequent Evictions
