How Investing With Novus Works

This investment starts by finding the right lot to build on. In some cases, we find suitable vacant lots, and in other cases, we purchase a lot with a distressed structure that can be renovated and repartitioned to make way for the multi-family residences.

Our real estate experts analyze dozens of properties in growing markets before choosing one with the best potential. We start by finding strong neighborhoods, through a careful evaluation of local market values, rental pricing, and occupancy rates. Then we analyze specific properties, considering location, zoning code, lot size, and buildable square footage. We use our industry connections from years in the business to find the lots with the greatest potential and negotiate the best purchase terms. Our deals can come from our relationships with hundreds of local brokers, or from nontraditional sources, including off-market properties, foreclosures, probate courts, and auctions. Each property is purchased with a target buyer in mind.

Depending on the location of the property and demand in the area, we may aim to sell the entire development to a single buyer, or we might sell the property to multiple buyers as a Tenants-in-Common (TIC) property or as individual condo units.

Every property goes through an extensive due diligence process before purchase. Our experts estimate the building costs in comparison to the after-construction value to ensure a profitable result.

To maximize returns and mitigate risk, we focus on developing small apartment buildings. Not only are smaller projects faster to build, but it’s also easier to get the required building permits. The shortened development timelines allow us to more accurately project returns. And smaller buildings are in higher demand because they appeal to a wide range of buyers. This means we can sell the building and distribute proceeds to investors faster.

Rigorous due diligence process
We have done our homework and using our proprietary process of vetting each acquisition, we are confident to offer you opportunities in only the highest-quality investments that prove consistent returns, using sophisticated analysis, superior technology, and transparent reporting.

Novus Group’s developments are designed to meet the unique needs of today’s buyers and renters in growing metro markets.

The design, layout, and finishes we choose depend on the exit strategy of the property. Some properties are developed to be sold as a whole to one single buyer, while other properties are designed to be sold to multiple buyers as TICs or condos. We tailor each property to the eventual buyer.

We create units that feel like home; we want to appeal to individual buyers who are looking for a unit to call home for the long term. These buyers want higher quality, more privacy, and a homey feeling. So we target residential locations, preferably with a mix of single-family and multi-family residential, and we design high-end units to meet buyer expectations. To tailor our developments to today’s market, we build small one-bedroom apartments or modular lofts. These layouts are ideal for today’s “Home Sharing” trend in which landlords are sharing their properties when abroad with multiple guests on a daily basis to make significant profits out of it.

To make sure our buildings are in high demand with investor-buyers, we focus on differentiating our buildings with unique designs, and choose amenities strategically. We avoid high-cost, high-maintenance amenities like pools and fitness centers. And we include low-maintenance amenities that offer a competitive advantage, like extra parking, in-unit laundry, and rooftop decks.

When the construction is complete, we stage the apartments, take final photos of the property, list the property on the market for sale, and advertise it to qualified buyers. ELABORATE THE MARKETING AND SALES PART
