Every rental property owner needs a rental property insurance policy and the latest Fit Small Business article breaks down the details about this particular type of insurance. Atlas partner and co-founder, Ryan Bokyin shares his insight:

1. Know the Replacement Value of Your Property

The insurance company will underwrite the home based on your provided information, including the year the home was built, a visual inspection of quality from the outside, and any upgrades you document, such as granite counters, Jacuzzi tubs, and hardwood floors. Have the details prepared. If you’ve recently had the home built or finished major renovations, provide a copy of the contractors’ work orders and invoicing to show exactly what was done.

“Always try to get a policy that covers the RCV (Replacement Cost Value, aka what it would cost to replace your home today) instead of ACV (Actual Cash Value, aka what your home is worth today after depreciation). The difference is that an ACV policy reduces any claim about how old the property is. While this may not matter very much year two, you can potentially lose tens of thousands of dollars if you have the same coverage year 10.”

– Ryan Boykin, Co-founder, Atlas Real Estate Group

Atlas associate broker, Nick Hodapp was asked by Fit Small Business to give insight on Colorado Real Estate Market Trends for 2019. His perspective included:

2. Invest in the Northern Part of Colorado

In general, Colorado continues to be a great place to invest. One of the areas that are good for investing is the northern part of Colorado, the I-25 corridor. With all of the development in entertainment, shopping and even Amazon distribution, we expect these advancements to bring an influx of new jobs, residents and overall growth. This area is also unique because it is still close to the city and gives people the accessibility of Denver without the downtown Denver price tag. Investors and residents are able to acquire more house for less.

Fit Small Business highlighted the Top 24 Mistakes in Commercial Real Estate Investing featuring comments by Mike Hills, Atlas’ vice president of investment brokerage:

13. Underestimating Vacancy & Tenant Improvement Costs

Vacancy and tenant improvements can be long and extremely expensive, especially in commercial real estate. For example, if an owner buys a commercial building that needs a lot of repairs and doesn’t have respectable tenants, the time that it takes to make money from that investment can take a really long time. And if the business owner is underfunded, they can lose a lot of money in a building until it becomes profitable.

8. Be Patient When Buying a Short Sale

It’s important to be patient when buying a short sale. Banks can be slow; understand that most bankers don’t know as much about real estate as you think they do. Be strong in your offer and be patient once you put your offer out. A lot of times you’re dealing with homeowners who are in dire financial situations. They may even still be living in the home while these negotiations are progressing, so celebrate your success but don’t gloat.

But it’s not as easy as it looks on tv. Atlas associate broker, Mike Hills, recently spoke to Fit Small Business about how to maximize your profit when flipping a house.

Hills says, “Another component to successful flipping is knowing who your end user is, or who is going to buy this property from you. Along with this knowledge comes knowing their ideal price point and what they expect to pay. Are they on the lower end price point of buyers in the area or the higher end? You can tailor renovations and improvements to this price point and should only spend money in the effort of creating a product that you know someone in that market would buy.”

Atlas associate broker, Nick Hodapp, contributed his insights into the Winter real estate market in the latest updates from Fit Small Business. Specifically Hodapp addressed how Winter Seasonality & Rising Interest Rates are Causing a Substantial Shift in CO Real Estate:

We are starting to see a substantial shift in the Colorado real estate market heading into Q4. For the first time in a long time, home prices are decreasing, rental rates are compressing, and days on the market are extending. This is partly due to winter seasonality, but another major factor is rising interest rates. For several years, we have been in an environment where money has been so cheap that with interest rates now increasing, buyers are losing some of their buying power, and this is reflected in home prices. Additionally, we believe that right now is a great time for the renters and buyers who may have been on the fence to get into the market.

Ryan Boykin addressed expectations for the real estate market in 2019 in the latest updates from Fit Small Business. Specifically Boykin identified the strongest investment opportunity as the 20-year market:

There are endless factors that contribute to home price appreciation and investment that are determined by local economics and the supply and demand dynamic of a locale. If you’re thinking of investing, make sure to choose a 20-year market. This is almost a level of certainty that real estate you buy in a market will be worth more 20 years from now than what it is worth today. Also, acquire a property that has sufficient cash flow to provide a strong return on investment in both good times and recessionary times. This is what ensures that you don’t lose the asset in recessions. Finally, try to find specific investments that have a nice story around them. This could be a value-add that you can do to the asset or perhaps there is big investment coming into a corridor from the city or a major corporation developing a new headquarters. All this creates new demand for living in that specific submarket and thereby creates a stronger appreciation story. This final element is what often provides the icing on the cake, and it will be what brings the investment greater appreciation than the national average over the long-term.

The booming Colorado real estate market remains a hot topic. While issues like supply and demand exist, investment possibilities are still plentiful with the right guidance. Atlas’ Nick Hodapp provided insights on current market trends in FitSmallBusiness.

The Colorado real estate market, particularly in Denver, has seen a notable growth in the value of sold properties over the course of the last 6 months. Throughout the last 6 months, the active median sales price of homes in Denver has gradually decreased, beginning the year in January at $595,000 and reaching $535,000 in June. However, the median sold price for these homes has seen an increase, $415,000 in January and $439,900 in June. This trend is congruent with the increasing number of both active and sold listings. The number of homes sold directly correlates with the median price of the sold homes and shows that with an increase in the number of active listings, there is an equivalent increase in the number of sold listings. In Denver and Colorado as a whole, we have seen strong net migration over the last 5+ years. Additionally, we have seen limited increases in housing supply. As a result, housing prices have sprung up and this will continue to be the case barring a national economic softening.
