TRANSCRIPT

Investment StrategyLocation – We have selected a great market in Knoxville, Tennessee. Knoxville is 1 of 3 U.S. cities that is officially out of the recession.Knoxville also has a large supply of our niche tenants (blue collar and retail workers).

Our main criteria when selecting a deal:

We use various forms of creative financing:

We buy underperforming mom and pop properties and reposition them by “fixing them up” with physical upgrades and professional management, which leads to higher rents and lower vacancy rates.

Service provider cost reductions have saved us thousands. We have negotiated different contracts with services companies for things such as pest control, waste management, and lawn care.

We look for motivated sellers. We look for mom & pop run apartments. These properties are typically undermanaged. Over time many of these owners let their properties slip and begin view their investment as a burden or - too much work.By buying undermanaged mom & pop properties, we are able to make purchases at wholesale and below replacement costs.

Niche Acquisition Strategy – Buy underperforming small to midsized “mom & pop” multifamily properties that have demonstrated strong cash flow but are being held back by poor property management and deferred mainte-nance. We target B and C properties from 20 to 150 units. We focus on this quantity of units because 20 units is too large for most small investors and 150 units is too small for institutional investors, thus allowing for less competi-tion.

Experienced Management Team – Not only do we oversee the asset management portion of each property, but we also actively manage the day-to-day onsite operations at a high level. Our firsthand experience allows for strict oversight of each property using our proven systems. Our objective is to raise the occupancy of the property as well as the income.

Strong Industry Fundamentals – Today’s economic climate is making it more difficult for people to acquire home loans. This has created a tremendous demand for multifamily housing. Our strong relationships with com-munity banks have allowed us to acquire properties using creative financing that is overlooked by the average investor.

Geographic Focus - Develop small to medium-size apartment complexes in blue collar communities. Our strategy is to develop these multifamily complexes in the southeast where taxes and regulations are not as burdensome as in other areas of the country.

Attractive Returns – We strive for cash-on-cash returns of 15% and cap rates of 9%. This high return rate, cou-pled with the equity built over time, makes our multifamily investing approach a sought after option for any wealth building strategy.

Partnering with Jake & Gino

SPECIFIC PLAN - Jake and Gino are executing a specific plan for acquiring underperforming mom & pop properties with growth potential in the Knoxville market. These assets will then be repositioned to meet the growing need for safe, clean and efficient housing for retail and blue collar workers.

There is a combination of appreciation, monthly cash flow, equity build up from principal payment and tax benefits. Our goal is to target properties that are too large for most individual investors and too small for institu-tional investors.

ATTRACTIVE RETURNS - We strive for cash-on-cash returns of 15% and cap rates of 9%. This high return rate coupled with the equity built over time makes our multifamily investing approach a sought after option for any wealth build-ing strategy.
