A sample of how independent advisory changes the math for Florida property owners.
Multi-family investor, Tampa
Situation: Client was considering a $2.1M purchase of a 12-unit asset. Broker projected 8.2% cap.
Analysis: We ran rent comps, vacancy-adjusted NOI and capex reserves. True stabilized cap: 5.9%.
Outcome: Advised against the deal. Client saved $340K in equity and redeployed into a repositioned duplex yielding 9.1%.
Inherited coastal single-family, Naples
Situation: Heirs debating whether to sell, hold, or renovate the inherited waterfront property.
Analysis: Compared net sale proceeds vs. short-term rental income vs. long-term lease with depreciation recapture.
Outcome: Recommended STR with targeted $85K annual gross. Client engaged ELEV8 management; NOI tracked within 4% of projection.
Portfolio owner, Orlando / Jacksonville
Situation: Seven-asset portfolio underperforming. Owner assumed refinance was the only lever.
Analysis: Asset-by-asset performance audit revealed two assets should be sold, three repositioned, two held.
Outcome: Disposition plan unlocked $1.2M in equity. Repositioning added $18K/month in rent roll within 14 months.
