Investing In Florida and Las Vegas Preconstruction Real Estate.
So you are interested in investing in the lucrative Florida and
Las Vegas preconstruction real estate markets but you don't know
where or when to buy. Then this article is for you. We will show
you what to watch out for in this once in a lifetime
opportunity. The first thing is to do your due diligence and
find the right real estate brokerage, be sure that this
brokerage deals with preconstruction real estate investing ...
Preconstruction real estate investing is the safest and fastest
way to make a healthy return on your initial investment. What is
really important to remember is that very few companies deal
with preconstruction and even fewer deal with a large selection
- here's why: 1. Less Money - While the investor makes more
money from a preconstruction, investment brokerages usually make
a smaller percent on preconstruction because they are in such
high demand from serious investors. This is why you'll hear so
many brokers say it is impossible to get preconstruction unless
you have the connections. Trust me, no one can get you on the
list.
2. Too Much Time - In order to sell preconstruction investment
real estate in Florida you have to constantly research new up
and coming developments that are not advertised anywhere. This
can take many hours a week calling and researching the market
and because the projects are all word of mouth brokerages need
connections in the industry to get in on the stellar projects.
Many Las Vegas and Florida brokerages just don't have the man
power to do the research or the connections in the industry to
find all these hidden gems.
3. Timing Timing Timing - Preconstruction real estate investing
is a very fast moving market... If you wait even a day to move
on a project chances are you?ve missed out on the development
and this frustrates many new agents and causes them to drop out
of preconstruction.
4. Delayed Payment - The number one factor on why most
brokerages don't sell preconstruction investment real estate is
because it takes so long to get paid compared to traditional
projects. Because agents are selling units so early before
development starts; payment is significantly delayed, in fact
payment can be delayed for up to two years... This is also why
many brokerages only deal with a small handful of
preconstruction projects (If any). By only offering a small
amount of projects the Las Vegas and Florida brokerages can
negociate quicker payment on those projects and push them hard
even if they are not in the best interest of the client.
The Bottom Line
Bottom line is in this industry you have to be very careful who
you invest your money with. Many companies have their needs
above the clients and because this is such a big ticket sale
many companies don't need referrals or returning customers to
stay profitable.
Remember, when searching for Florida investment real estate
chose a brokerage that has a large selection of both
preconstruction and phase one projects and doesn?t pressure you
into one of their flagship developments where they make a higher
percent off the sale.
