Frequently Asked Questions

Over the past 15+ years, we have delivered more than 490 Las Vegas investment properties to clients worldwide. As part of our new client onboarding process, we have trained over 180 clients to become successful investors in a few hours. More than 90% of them buy two or more properties. Referrals from existing clients comprise our largest source of new business. In short, we have the skills, experience, investment team, resources, and processes in place to enable you to purchase reliable passive income properties with little personal time investment.

Frequently asked questions:

  • How much cash do I need? We target properties that range in cost from $320,000 to $475,000. To determine how much cash you will need, please see the estimated range of purchase prices below, which includes typical down payment, closing, and renovation costs.
  • How reliable is the income? During the 2008 financial crash, our clients experienced no decline in rent and had no vacancies. COVID - almost no impact. Eviction moratorium - almost no impact.
  • What initial return can I expect? At the current (+7%) interest rates, first-year return ranges between 0% to 1%. With a cash purchase, 4% to 5.5%.
  • How have your properties performed? Between 2013 and today, annual appreciation has exceeded 11%. Annual rent growth was greater than 6%.
  • How much time of my time is required? Based on feedback from our clients, clients generally spend between 8 and 12 hours acquiring their first property, which includes 3 to 4 hours of training. Subsequent properties will require significantly less time.
  • I have never invested in real estate before. Is this a problem? Out of the 180+ clients we have worked with, only 4 or 5 had prior real estate investing experience. That's why we provide training as part of our new client onboarding process. So, not having any prior investment experience is not a problem. Real estate is easy to learn.

  • Where are your client’s properties located? Please see the map below, which shows the locations of most of our client's properties.

  • I do not want to fix anything or deal with tenants. None of our clients do. The property manager is responsible for maintenance and dealing with tenants.

  • Does remote investing work?: Out of the 180+ clients we have worked with, only 8 or 9 were local. The rest were located in other states or countries. I have never met 60% of our clients, and a significant percentage of them have never been to Las Vegas.
  • How have your clients grown their portfolios? As a result of the high appreciation rate, clients are able to expand their portfolios by using cash-out refinancing as the down payment for their next property. This enables them to maintain a low total capital investment while expanding their portfolios.
  • What are your fees? Normally, there are no fees to our clients. The listing agent pays the only money we normally receive, which comes through escrow. In the past 15 years, there have been 4 or 5 occasions where the commission split paid by the listing agent was less than 2.5%, and in those cases, the client made up the difference.
