Armstrong Capital Newsletter

September 2006

 

Jeffrey R. Armstrong, President, Armstrong Capital

 

Hello! J Well, hope you had a great Halloween and you got more treats than tricks! With the holidays fast approaching you want to make sure that you have some marketing in place to assist those people that need some quick cash for all or part of their notes.

 

In the last couple of months, we started to look at the different property types that notes are secured by, different situations and the additional information that would be nice to know for the funding source to initially give you accurate pricing. 

  

Situations & Information Needed – Part 3

Condominiums

 

As you are talking to the note holder you will come across many types of properties and situations.  Following are some good questions to ask and answers to get in addition to the information on your mortgage worksheet.  Last month we looked at Mobile Homes and the month before Residential property types.  This month we will cover some additional questions to ask the note holder when the note is secured by a condominium.

 

Condominiums

 

-         New or old project?

 

-         When was it built?

 

-         How many stories does it have?

 

-         Is it a Townhouse?  High-rise?  Garden Apartment?

 

-         Does it have a garage?  Carport?

 

-         What are the monthly Homeowner’s Association dues?

 

-         How many units are in the complex?

 

-         How many units are for sale?

 

-         How many are vacant? 

 

-         How many units are owner occupied?

 

-         How many units are rentals?

 

-         Describe off-street parking?

 

-         Describe properties on each side of the complex.

 

-         Give the name, address and phone number of the condominium association.

 

 

Remember, what you are trying to do while completing the worksheet is to get the story behind the note.  The more information we get up front the more likely the prices we get from the funding sources will not be cut later on down the road during the due diligence process.  You will save yourself and the funding source lots of time and wasted effort by just asking a few pointed questions.  Next month we will look at some key questions to ask when the note is secured by a commercial property.

 

Keep on marketing, it’s going to work!  Hope this helps!  Talk to you next month!  

 

Happy Thanksgiving!

 Jeff
