investors: The operating agreement for a TIC offering - 07/09/07 08:22 PM
I'm looking for prototypes for an operating agreement for a RE TIC. I know there have to be some out there in the Real Estate world. Anyone know of any other books beside Gene Trowbridge'? The primary need is to have buy/sell provisions, a mandatory sale on irreconcilable differences clause, and provisions for what constitutes grounds for termination … (2 comments)
investors: It's a Whole New Business - Gene Trowbridge -- book review - 07/07/07 09:28 PM
For those interested in group sponsorships of RE TIC's, or even securitized TIC's, this seems to be the current definitive text on the subject. A little spendy at $295, but most likely worth it. I'm only half way through but I know I'm going to get a lot of bang for investment. … (1 comments)

With the issuance of IRS Rev Proc 2002-22, Real Estate held for investment as a Tenant-in-Common was promulgaged as being eligible for a Tax-Deferred, 1031 exchange, subject to 15 provisions or restrictions.

investors: Multi-Family P&L Analysis vs Proformas - 05/25/07 08:34 PM
This is probably a question that is rhetorical -- I know the answer but I'm still fishing for a different way to state the obvious. For Multi-Family rental properties, sites like http://loopnet.com tend to offer a CAP Rate approach to property valuation. Commercial Bankers, however, tend to prefer a P&L approach, … (4 comments)
investors: Cap Rates (and P/E Ratios) does not explain the whole picture. - 05/15/07 08:22 PM
I'm going to take a stab at this and invite feedback where I might have gone astray with my assumptions or calculations, although I certainly can't figure how that might happen. :^) With fundamental analysis of equities (particularly publicly-traded, common stocks) one of the key statistics that is of importance is a P/E ratio. Within certain industries, there are … (1 comments)
investors: Finding motivators sellers (for OO and NOO's) - 05/14/07 11:31 PM
I sometimes find it amusing that so much time is spent by investors wondering how they will find motivated Sellers. Being "in the industry" of real estate sales, of course, allows me a different perspective than if I weren't a professional Realtor. The way we (REALTORS) discover motivated Sellers is to interview … (2 comments)
