This project represents the future of our company! As we are closing out our single family properties, we are turning our focus on properties just like Paris street, 1-5 Unit condos in and around great Boston!

Our renovation budget did go up a bit from the original estimate as we added roof top decks and had to sister all of the floor joists through the house. But, our ARV has been bumped up due to r

We have all heard the stories; investors who use under the table labor, try to pull as few permits as possible, and try to squeeze every penny out of a property they can, usually cutting corners in the process. I have seen firsthand how some investors will do this and try to fly under the radar in order to maximize their profit.

This week in Team Education we watched a Ted Talk which taught us to have powerful conversations in lieu of insignificant small talk. We’ve all sat through the agonizing time filler known as “small talk”. It’s one of those things that most people don’t like to do, but they feel like they have to. Everyone has been in a conversation and felt the only way to keep it alive is to ask questions such as: How are the kids? Where are you from? Wow, it’s a beautiful day outside, hu

What happens when you jump into a condo conversion on a property built in 1825 that has $350,000 in renovations without ever doing one before? You learn a lot! We decided to jump into this deal with no real experience in the condo conversion world and we definitely learned a ton through the fire. After almost a year, (and 3 contractors) this beautiful project is finally finished and on the market! One of the two units is already under contract and we expect the other one to g

Are you looking to buy the home of your dreams but you keep getting caught in bidding wars? Or are you an investor that just can't get an offer accepted? Then keep reading! In my travels, I consistently come across people who talk about how the market has dried up. "There aren't any good deals out there" they say but there are tons of deals out there!
