REAL ESTATE INVESTING
One Purchase. Two Assets.
The Situation
People often assume real estate investing requires a huge budget.
It doesn't always.
Sometimes the opportunity is in recognizing potential that others might overlook.
Our customers purchased a home with an additional lot for $274,900.
The Team Territo Strategy
From the beginning, there was more to this property than just the house.
The owners made smart, strategic renovations to improve the home while preserving the opportunity to separate the additional lot.
When it was time to sell, Team Territo marketed the improved home separately, allowing the owners to retain the additional lot as its own asset.
One original purchase had effectively become two marketable properties.
The Result
Original Purchase — House + Additional Lot:
$274,900
Sale of House Only:
$369,000
The house alone sold for $94,100 more than the original purchase price of the house and lot combined.
And they still had the additional lot.
Current List Price of Separated Lot:
$150,000
The lot is currently listed for sale, so the $150,000 represents its asking price, not realized proceeds.
Why Representation Mattered
Smart real estate investing isn't always about having a huge amount of money to invest.
It can be about buying the right property, recognizing opportunities others may overlook, making improvements that add value, and having a smart strategy for the eventual sale.
In this case, a $274,900 purchase included both a house and additional land. Strategic renovations and the ability to separate the assets allowed the owners to sell the house alone for $369,000 while retaining a second property that is now listed for $150,000.
That's the kind of opportunity we want our customers to understand when we're evaluating real estate — not just what a property is today, but what it could become.
You don't need a million-dollar budget to think like a real estate investor.
Team Territo helps buyers recognize potential, evaluate opportunities and make smart real estate decisions.
