“It goes back to the mindset shift, or the flip of the switch in your mind and in your heart, where you know you have to make a change to better yourself. You have to be accepting of that switch and just know there’s no other option than doing this.” Danny Randazzo and his Partner/Wife experienced an incredible shift in their mindsets and backed it up with some radical steps in achieving their dream of building a multifamily real estate portfolio. Selling all their possessions in the Bay Area, CA., and bravely moving to Charleston, South Carolina, their target market, they gambled it all. In this episode, you’ll learn the power of “flipping the switch”, why multifamily investing is ideal for passive investors, and how being open to opportunity and prepared can prove the concept YOU ARE AN INVESTOR.

After selling his place in the summer of 2016, his wife and him moved to Charleston, South Carolina to build a real estate portfolio. In the winter of 2016, he made his first investment purchase, buying 2 commercial buildings that have 6 rental units.

There are some big changes happening right now in the Greater Charleston area. We usually see a bit of a shift around this time of year, but some of the things we are noticing are pretty atypical. Over the last three months, we’ve had 5,200 homes come on the market. However, our pending listings have dropped from 3,500 to 3,000 in that same time frame. That’s a significant difference. In addition to that, the price per square foot is in the high $160s right now, but homes are selling for about $134. It tells me that there are a lot of homes on the market right now that are overpriced. “Whether this shift continues or not depends on buyer confidence.” Part of the reason buyer activity has slowed down is because buyers are deciding that homes aren’t just worth what sellers are asking for them and it’s causing a bit of a shift. Will it continue? I have no idea, but it depends on where buyer confidence is above all else. If buyers continue to not buy and decide homes are overpriced, the market will slow down. If you’ve been thinking about selling your home, right now is the perfect time. In fact, this is one of the best seller’s markets I’ve ever seen. If you have any questions for me or want any buying or selling advice, give me a call or send me an email. I would love to hear from you soon.
