Net Profit: $400,000, $250,000 was TAX FREE!
This is one of Dan’s early deals (Dan is one of the co-founders of the Matrix). He bought this South Mountain property, which initially had a house on it, for $150,000. In 2006 he sold the property for $550,000.
The opportunity for this deal came from the unusual housing market at the time. 2006 was the peak of the housing bubble. However, it demonstrates two major points: one, Dan was smart enough to sell at a time when the market indicated he should sell and when everyone else was buying. Two, all real estate investing produces a profit when you can buy low and sell high. The market always determines the price at which a property can sell. Matrix Investor Network teaches students how to read the market, how to estimate the After Repair Value (ARV) of subject properties and how to find wholesale properties at below-market prices.
