The Math

How consolidation improves your position

Before

  • 3 properties (fourplexes)
  • = 12 total units
  • 3 property managers
  • 3 different cities
  • 15 hours/month managing

After

  • 1 property (twenty-unit)
  • = 20 total units (67% more)
  • 1 professional PM
  • 1 city (Chico)
  • 4 hours/month managing

Result

Same total equity. 12% more cash flow. 60% less time. Better property. Better management. Simplified operations.

Case Study: The Consolidation

Three scattered fourplexes to one twenty-unit

Before

  • 3 fourplex properties
  • Chico, Oroville, Yuba City
  • 3 different property managers
  • $8,200/month gross rent
  • $5,100/month net operating income
  • 15 hours/month management time
  • Different insurance, different problems

After

  • 1 twenty-unit property
  • Chico only
  • 1 institutional property manager
  • $9,200/month gross rent
  • $5,700/month NOI (12% increase)
  • 4 hours/month management time
  • Better economies of scale on expenses

Result

Traded three aging fourplexes for one well-maintained twenty-unit. Same equity deployed. 12% more cash flow. 70% less time. Deferred capital gains through 1031 exchange. Now manages one property manager instead of three.
