Multi-Family Built‑for‑You Developments

Benefits of Built‑for‑You

Built‑for‑You vs. Buying Existing Property

Finding the perfect multi-family rental property from active listings is nearly impossible; you’re competing with lots of other investor-buyers, which drives up the cost of the property. And you just know there will be expensive problems with the condition of the property once you complete the purchase. Rather than buying an existing property from the market, have Gatsby build one for you!

With Gatsby, you get in at the ground floor of the investment, allowing you to save on property taxes, force immediate equity, and get higher returns on your money.

During the construction phase, the investment is completely passive for you. We handle every detail. Once the development and stabilization phase is completed, you take full control of your new property.

How Gatsby Stretches Your Investment Capital

Through our experience and industry connections, Gatsby delivers more value at a lower cost, helping you save money at every stage of the construction process:

• Save on the purchase price: Gatsby leverages its large network of agents and brokers to find off-market deals, often at prices much lower than those available to individual buyers.
• Pre-construction savings: Our strong partnerships with engineers, architects, and other vendors allow us to secure discounted rates on essential services.
• Construction lending: As experienced developers with established lender relationships, we offer access to favorable loan rates for construction financing.
• Construction cost savings: Because Gatsby builds properties in volume, we can secure volume discounts on materials and labor, significantly reducing construction costs.
• Real estate agent savings: The traditional broker fees (typically 2.5-6% of the price) are eliminated because the property is transferred directly to you upon completion.
• Property tax benefits: By building from the ground up, the property taxes will be based on the initial purchase price plus construction costs. This results in significantly lower annual property taxes compared to purchasing an existing property.
• Mortgage loan savings: With our cost-saving measures, you have more equity in the property. This means taking a smaller mortgage loan, resulting in lower monthly mortgage payments.

The Built‑for‑You Process

The entire built‑for‑you process typically takes 18-24 months, depending on the scale of the project.

We handle every detail of the development, giving you a fully passive investment experience throughout the construction phase.

Here’s what Gatsby Investment does for you:

• Market feasibility: We analyze market trends to determine the best areas to build in. We also confirm which types and styles of properties perform best in each neighborhood.
• Property sourcing: We find ideal parcels for multi-family development, whether it's raw land or lots with existing distressed structures that should be demolished.
• Due diligence: We compare property sales and rental comps in the area to make sure it will be a profitable investment.
• Project planning: We create the new structure’s layout and design to maximize the lot’s potential and determine the best unit mix for the property.
• Ownership structure: We establish the LLC in which the property will be held, handling all legal contracts and agreements.
• Escrow management: We oversee the contract period to ensure a secure and seamless transaction.
• Design and permitting: We manage the design plans and take care of all applicable permits, ensuring compliance with local regulations.
• Pre-construction: This phase includes site preparation, potential demolition of existing structures, and finalizing all plans and permits.
• Material and finishing: We source the most appropriate materials based on local demand and select the appliances and fixtures for a polished finish.
• Construction financing: We prepare all the necessary documents and assist in securing a construction loan to finance the build.
• Construction: We manage the entire construction process, keeping the project on track in terms of time and budget, while maintaining high-quality standards.
• Accounting: We manage the financials throughout the project, including fund control and construction draws.
• Stabilizing the property: Post-construction, we advertise the property for rent, screen prospective tenants, and lease up the units to stabilize the property.
• Long-term financing: We work with you to secure a mortgage lender for long-term holding once construction is complete.
• Property management: We connect you with professional property management services to ensure smooth operations and optimal asset performance.
• Handover: Once construction is complete and the property is stabilized, the fully-occupied multi-family rental property is all yours!
