For investors
Deal review grounded in South Carolina rent data
I work with small residential investors — first rental, second property, or a slow-build portfolio. The value is honest underwriting before you commit, including when the answer is no.
How a deal gets evaluated
Numbers first, showings second
Investor time is wasted touring properties that were never going to work. Underwriting comes before the calendar.
Define the strategy
Long-term rental, house hack, or light renovation and hold? Each one changes which South Carolina submarkets and property types are worth your time.
Underwrite before touring
Rent comparables, taxes, insurance, likely vacancy, and management assumptions on paper first. If the numbers do not work, we skip the drive.
Condition review
Roof, HVAC, plumbing age, and layout limitations are the line items that break returns. We look for them early and price repairs realistically.
Offer with terms that fit
Inspection windows, closing timing, and repair credits structured around your financing and renovation plan.
Due diligence
Inspection follow-up, contractor walkthroughs where needed, and lease review if the property is currently tenant-occupied.
Close and repeat
After closing, I keep watching the areas you buy in and send properties that fit your stated criteria — not everything that hits the market.
What we review together
The line items that decide whether a property pencils
Rent comparables
What similar units in that specific area are actually leasing for right now, not what a listing claims is possible.
Carrying costs
Taxes at the investor assessment rate, insurance, HOA if applicable, utilities during vacancy, and maintenance reserves.
Capital items
Roof, HVAC, water heater, and electrical age — the expenses that arrive whether or not the unit is occupied.
Tenant demand
Proximity to employment corridors, schools, and transit; how long comparable units sit before leasing.
Exit options
Whether the property resells to an owner-occupant later, which protects you if strategy changes.
Financing structure
How your lender's down payment and reserve requirements affect cash needed at closing — confirmed with your lender, not estimated by me.
