Single Family Real Estate Investment Consulting Services
Woodford Partners specializes can help you determine both a strategy and a plan of action for acquiring single family real estate properties.
Is Single Family Real Estate Investing Right for Me?
One of the biggest questions we always pose to our clients when they are considering real estate investment properties: “Do you want to become a landlord, or would you rather rehab and resell properties?”
Some investors enjoy paying down their loans and building equity with someone else’s rent checks – and, earning their investment back over a longer term. Then there are others who do not wish to be hassled by tenants and hope to make a quicker return on their investment. Either approach is valid in today’s marketplace.
As your consultant, we'll help you think about what you are comfortable with and the unique set of risks and rewards associated with both strategies.
Understanding Some of The Basics
Real estate companies have long pursued a consistent approach to value creation: high-quality properties, low cost of capital, and consolidation. However, changes in technology and how people use real estate have significantly disrupted the industry by focusing on customer experience, harnessing the power of data and technology, and innovating their business models.
We provide research services to help you in making stronger decisions:
- MSA rankings. We developed a methodology to rank metropolitan statistical areas (MSAs) based on the potential for successfully acquiring and renting single-family rental homes. Our team analyzes over 50 categories of historical and projected demand, supply, and housing-related factors.
- Zip code ranking and price forecasting. Within an MSA, we can dive down to the zip code level, so clients can make more informed capital allocation decisions. We also create a future resale price forecast by zip code, so that our clients can consider future price changes in their underwriting.
- Financial modeling and valuation. Our cash flow models help value portfolios of assets or loans and includes our pricing forecasts with operating expenses and rehabilitation costs. The model offers tremendous flexibility to run sensitivity analyses.
- Capital raising. We have supported several capital-raising efforts through initial public offerings and private placement memorandums by providing a historical perspective and our forecast of economic and housing related trends that will impact the single-family rental business.
