Today we are closing on the sale of an investment property so we decided to take a deep dive into this real-life case study. In 2016, Matthew purchased a property with the goal of turning it into a rental investment. Today, we unravel the entire journey – from acquisition to sale – to determine if this venture was a success or a bust.
Our discussion kicks off with the critical analysis that Matthew and his team undertook before making the purchase. What factors did they consider when evaluating whether this property would be a wise rental investment? Discover the key elements that contribute to the success of a rental property and how to identify them.
One of the central questions we tackle is the rate of return. What is it, and why is it such a crucial metric for investors? We'll explore the various factors that impact the rate of return, shedding light on what can either boost or deflate this essential measure of profitability.
But that's not all. Real estate investments are filled with unpredictable variables that can significantly affect your returns. We delve into the unknown and unforeseen factors that Matthew encountered during his ownership of the property – factors that could make or break an investment.
Fast forward to 2023 – Matthew has decided to sell the property, and we've recorded this episode on closing day. We take a retrospective look at the decision to sell and run a comprehensive analysis comparing the property's market value to its acquisition cost. Does this investment still hold up in today's market, or has it lost its shine?
In the final moments of the episode, we reach the pivotal question: Was this investment a good one, or was it a bust? Join us as we examine the numbers, the experiences, and the lessons learned to determine the ultimate fate of Matthew's investment property.
