Some real estate transactions are about much more than buying a property. They are about relationships built over many years, goals that continue to evolve, and the satisfaction of watching people you care about take another important step forward.
Our friendship with Oscar and Sandra goes back nearly 20 years. Over that time, we have had the privilege of watching their family grow, seeing their children grow up, and sharing many special moments together. Real estate has also been an important part of that journey. Through the years, we have helped them purchase several properties, including the home where they live today as well as investment properties. This time, they were ready for another chapter.
A New Investment Goal
Oscar and Sandra joined forces with Sandra’s brother, Frans, who lives in Canada, and together they created NINAGA 3 LLC with the goal of purchasing another investment property. They weren’t simply looking for the first property that became available. The objective was to find an opportunity that made sense financially and could become another solid addition to their growing real estate investment portfolio. That meant doing the homework.
We explored many different possibilities together—from condominiums to townhouses and single family homes and across several areas of Maryland. Our search took us through Prince George’s County and even as far as Hagerstown as we evaluated different properties, locations, prices, potential rental opportunities, and overall numbers. Just as importantly, we eliminated properties and areas that didn’t fit what they were trying to accomplish. Sometimes finding the right investment is as much about knowing what not to buy as it is about recognizing the right opportunity when it appears.
Finding the Right Opportunity
Eventually, we found a two-bedroom condominium in Temple Hills that deserved a closer look. The property needed some updating, but after studying the numbers and evaluating its potential as a rental, we believed it could make sense for their investment strategy.
The condominium had been originally offered at $115,000. Rather than simply accepting the asking price, we reviewed the market, considered the property’s condition and the improvements that would be needed, and developed an offer strategy based on those factors.
Because Oscar, Sandra and Frans had prepared themselves financially and were purchasing through NINAGA 3 LLC with cash, they were in a position to present a straightforward offer without financing.
After negotiations, we successfully reached an agreement at: $105,000 — $10,000 below the original asking price. Another Property Added to the Portfolio
With the purchase completed, the next stage begins.
Oscar, Sandra and Frans are now working on the updates they want to make to the condominium before placing it on the rental market. Once those improvements are completed, the property is intended to become another long-term investment within their real estate portfolio.
What makes this transaction especially meaningful to us is knowing how much preparation went into reaching this point. Oscar, Sandra and Frans were willing to explore different possibilities, study the numbers, remain patient when an opportunity wasn’t right, and be ready to act when one finally was.
That preparation and discipline gave them the flexibility to negotiate from a strong position and ultimately accomplish the goal they had set for themselves. Congratulations, Oscar, Sandra & Frans!
Congratulations to Oscar, Sandra and Frans on the purchase of another investment property and this new chapter for NINAGA 3 LLC!
