12 Reasons Investors Are Buying Properties in our Biloxi Opportunity in The Go Zone
1. Retirement – 97% of Americans don’t have enough money to retire on. Let’s say you want $100,000 a year to retire on. You would need to purchase 15 homes today at $150,000 and keep them for at least 15 years – receiving a 7% appreciation per year – sell them 15 years from now receiving $2.2 million after tax cash in your pocket, then putting that $2.2 million in a money market account at 5% you would get a minimum of $100,000 a year to live. (See our excel sheet)
2. Positive cash flow (A 4 bedroom home in Biloxi currently renting for $1,400 to $1,500 per month).
3. Statistics prove the need for housing:
- 65,000 homes were destroyed during Katrina.
- 45,000 homes are needed immediately and only 10,000 are currently constructed.
- 55,000 homes NEED TO BE REBUILT in the Biloxi market.
- 5 year proposal to put 22 casinos in the Biloxi market. MGM, Harrah’s, Steve Wynn, Hard Rock & Donald Trump himself will be building a $1.3 billion casino in Biloxi.
4. Tax Incentives (Possible 50% DEPRECIATION WRITE-OFF in YEAR 1). Read below.
5. Small Rental Assistance Program offers opportunities for up to $40k in the form of a forgivable loan as long as you keep it rented to low income housing tenants for 5 years and meet the requirements. See below in order to get complete details for the Small Rental Assistance Program with the State of Mississippi & website & qualification info.
6. This property is turnkey – the property management is already in place.*
7. Walk in equity of 12%. A 15% down payment ($24,000) on a price point of $160,000 allows a potential buyer to have walk-in equity of at least 12-13%. In other words the property appraises 12-13% higher than the purchase price.
8. Cost to build - Less than $100 a square foot.
9. Modular Homes Built to withstand 150 mph winds (Category 5 Hurricane). See Document pdf file on PreFab vs. Modular. Modular homes receive the same rates as single family residences. Conventional financing available through Solomon Financial.
10. Humanitarian / altruistic aspect:
- 101,000 people are living in FEMA trailers (some are severely ill including children from Formaldehyde in these trailers) and need to get out. You can help these people live in a brand new, safe home. (See the story on the http://dsc.discovery.com for more info).
11. Invest in a Rapidly APPRECIATING emerging market -- possibly the very best market in the United States. (Like Vegas and Southern California in the early to mid 1990’s. Prices of homes in So-Cal were dropping then while prices in Vegas were going up.) 5 years from now Biloxi will look like a miniature Las Vegas. Investors who enter at beginning are the ones who will make the most profit.
12. Solomon Financial Mortgage does loans in Mississippi & other Go Zone areas - 40 states in total. To make sure our clients are not overcharged we stand behind our match/beat guarantee.
