FAQ
Flagship Housing LLC is a part of a real estate investment company started by two Rochester brothers
focused primarily on multi-family property acquisition and development. We help owners of
investment properties who are weighed down by the headaches and hassles of ownership and management.
Q. Are you different from real estate agents?
Yes. Real estate agents “list” properties for sale. They put your property
on the market and hope some other agent sells it for them. They generally charge you a
commission of tens of thousands of dollars to sell your property. You will not know the
selling price in advance, or how much you will receive at the closing, or even if you will get to
the closing! Also, listed properties usually take many months or even years to sell.
Flagship Housing LLC does not want to “list” your property, we want to buy your
property. We do not charge you any fees or commissions and can often pay up to full
value. You will know the selling price right away and we will try to close quickly. We
are experienced investors whose reputation and livelihood rests on whether or not the closing
actually takes place. We want to create a win-win situation for everyone!
Q. Will You Offer Market, or Retail Value?
The value of rental property is fairly easy to determine based primarily on the income the
property provides. Whether that value is called market or retail is not very important
compared to the amount an investor in the market is willing to pay. As a seller, what you
should really care about is your bottom line after all the selling costs. Flagship Housing LLC
will be able to offer you a higher bottom line than you would receive on a property that is
overpriced with a real estate agent.
A real estate agent will generally try to list a property for as much as possible — often
much more than the market is willing to pay. That is why you see so many properties
listed over and over again. Please do not confuse the amount that a real estate agent might
tell you your property is worth, with how much it will actually sell for. Amazingly, it is
quite common for an apartment complex or property to sell for as much as 30 percent below the listing
price suggested by the real estate agent.
What is most important is how much you will receive at closing — the bottom line; but also
important is the length of time it actually takes to sell your property. Over time, holding
costs and inconveniences may eat away at your bottom line with loan payments, expenses, and the
cost of your money tied up in the property, which could be making you money somewhere
else. The longer that it takes a real estate agent to sell your property, the more that
holding costs and inconvenience will make a difference.
Of course, most importantly, there are the commissions that an agent charges which come right from
your profits.
In the end, by the time you sell a property listed by a real estate agent, holding costs,
commissions and selling costs might take tens of thousands of dollars out of your pocket!
If you really want to sell your property and are realistic about its value, Flagship Housing LLC will
buy it now and avoid all of these issues!
Flagship Housing LLC is committed to providing you the fastest possible, stress-free sale.
How much we can pay for your property will be based on many factors. These include the condition and repairs that are needed, the net operating income (NOI), the time factor, and whether you need cash or if a creative solution can be achieved.
