A fortune cookie once said, “May you live in interesting times!” Today, in the capital markets, we live in interesting times. Your biggest partner in an apartment transaction is the lender. The lender brings to the table about 70-80% of the funds you need to close on your apartment. You want to know what is working and not working for apartment lending. We sit down with the loan officers at Old Capital to discuss all types of lending opportunities. Is Fannie & Freddie still lending? Should you consider a Bridge loan to get higher leverage? Are some syndicators having problems in raising investors money? If rates are going to be low for a while…should you consider an adjustable rate? A great discussion to listen to.

Only 18 years old and traveling under a false identity, How Jiu had to pass a grueling test before she was allowed to enter the United States. How Jiu married and raised a successful family in Northern California. Her journey changed everything in her life and future generations of her family. Just one step made all the difference. How Jiu’s granddaughter, Heidi Fong Young, tells her story and expands on some of the similarities she has with her grandmother. Taking a prudent risk could provide you a better life.

When you purchase an apartment building, your lender typically requires a PCA. (Property Condition Assessment). The PCA is the eyes and ears for the lender. Yes, the appraisal verifies the value, but the PCA identifies health and safety issues on the property. Can someone get hurt on your property because of the existing deferred maintenance. It also determines the amount replacement reserves that the lender will need to collect with your monthly payment. Michael, discusses items that you need to know within the PCA report.
Tony Lin lives and works in the San Jose area. He has a full time job as a computer software engineer. A few years ago he wanted to invest in single family homes outside of California. His business partner, Helen Lin, introduced him into the concept and benefits of multifamily investing. After seeing how the numbers worked and how you can make money in apartments…he was hooked. He invested, as a passive investor, in 10 apartment transactions. Helen introduced him to successful apartment syndicators Ken & Wind Yue. The Yue’s own over 2000 units. Ken & Wind took Tony and Helen under their wing and helped them sponsor their first deal. They acquired a stabilized, class B-/C+ property in Arlington, Texas in 2018. Tony explains how he structured their first transaction and how he operates the property from over 1700 miles away.
