EAST/WEST PROPERTIES mission is to identify properties in real estate markets in the United States that provide cash flow and return on investment to investors. Appreciation is a bonus but not necessary for these investments to make sense.  Each market has a field partner who is an expert in that market. We specialize in finding the right properties in the right neighborhoods and helping you, the investor, put together a team to manage your properties.  This team could include property managers, bankers, insurance agents, contractors, attorneys, handymen, bird dogs, realtors and others.  We help you through the sales process and are available for consultation after the sale.

Investing in real estate is exciting, dynamic and rewarding. You may choose to be active or passive, but even the passive investor needs to do due diligence, and provide leadership for the field team. We offer via the INVESTMENT PROPERTIES tabs several types of properties in various markets:

  • Wholesale Properties: These undervalued often vacant properties come to us from REO (bank owned  properties) Internet web site and advertising.
  • Newspaper, signs, presence in the market.
  • “Bird Dogs” We pay a $500 finders fee if you identify a property and we buy it.
  • Wholesale properties can be bought “as is”.  Sometimes East/West can assign you a Property, for a fee that we have under contract. Often the best strategy is to buy and fix up for cash, then sell or refinance and pull cash out and rent for cash flow.
  • Rehabbed Properties.  Rehabbed to us means:
    1. All the mechanicals (furnaces, plumbing and electrical) are in good condition.
    2. Utilities are usually separated, so the tenant can pay gas and electric bills. 
    3. Roof, siding and foundation are in good condition with no repairs necessary
    4. Kitchens and bathrooms are in good and clean condition with fresh paint and functioning plumbing.
    5. All other rooms have new or clean carpets or floors and fresh paint.
    6. Basements are either dry or have sump pump set-ups.
  • MLS listed properties: East/West Properties and our field partners can identify good investment properties for you. We can act as your real estate buyer’s agent in some states or take an “education fee” for helping you through the process in others.
  • 1-4 unit properties are financed with residential loans and show up on your credit report. 5 units and up properties are financed with commercial loans and don’t show up on your credit report.
