WHAT IS AN “EMERGING MARKET STRATEGY” FOR WEALTH BUILDING?

Imagine if you had the foresight 7 years ago to invest heavily in Las Vegas, Miami, Phoenix, San Diego, and Honolulu, and to get out 2 years ago. Those markets all appreciated over 100% in a 5 year period. Many savvy investors made enough money in those markets in just 5 years that they never have to work again. Now, instead of waking up with that 8 am alarm clock, they are softly awakened by the warm breeze off the ocean blowing through their open window. As they slowly put on their robe, their thoughts turn to the fun activities that will fill their day, since they no longer have a boss or an office to get to by 9am. They are financially free. Unlike the stock market, local real estate markets usually move in slow, predictable cycles. Appreciation is not magic or luck, it typically correlates closely with economic development and population growth in a local area.

WHAT IF YOU KNEW WHICH MARKET WOULD HAVE THE FASTEST GROWING ECONOMY IN THE COUNTRY OVER THE NEXT 5 YEARS? WOULD YOU GET IN EARLY?

If you missed out on Phoenix and Vegas and Florida (or if you rode those waves and know what it’s all about), you have an exclusive opportunity to invest in Mobile, Alabama, ranked by Moody’s and Forbes as the #1 market in the country for economic growth between 2008-2012.

The principals of Maverick personally invested in Vegas, Phoenix, Florida, Southern California, and other markets over the last few years. We now "work" on our laptops from rooftop pool decks in Los Angeles, ski lodges in the mountains, and lake-front patios on the east coast. This month, we are all moving our personal money to invest heavily in the Mobile area before it takes off.

WHAT IS DRIVING THE EXPLOSIVE GROWTH IN MOBILE?

Accordning to Business 2.0 and CNN's Money Magazine, "Mobile is emerging as the South's next boomtown and a magnet for megaprojects". The biggest is a $4.1 billion steel mill that German industrial giant ThyssenKrupp is building in Mobile. It will create 2,700 jobs when it opens in 2010, generate almost twice as many spinoff jobs, and bring in 29,000 workers during the construction phase. Also, Northrop Grumman/EADS recently won a 40 Billion dollar contract from the Airforce to build new aerial refueling tankers. The companies say this project will create an additional 2,000 jobs in Mobile

Aiming to be one of Mobile's largest employers, the ship building company Austal USA expects to hire an addition 1,000 workers over the next five years. The larger work force is needed to support a two hundred and fifty-four million dollar expansion. Austal says the expansion will include a modular manufacturing facility, warehouse, administration building and training facility as well as manufacturing equipment. The company expects the additional workers will receive an average annual salary of forty-seven thousand dollars. By the year 2012 Austal projects they could employ nearly 2,200 workers.

Wachovia Economics Group's 2007 Report lists some of the additional projects that are coming to Mobile:

• Berg Spiral Pipe Company to Open New $75 Million Plant
• International Shipholding Corporation to Open New $23 Million Plant
• Goodrich Aerospace Undertakes $11 million Expansion to Manufacturing Plant
• Mobile Aerospace Engineering to Undertake Plant Expansion
• Airbus North America to Open New Aircraft Assembly Plant

Tourism is also set to skyrocket, with a $600 million NASCAR race track and entertainment complex breaking ground this year. The "Dale Earnhardt Jr. Speedway" will be fully operational by 2010. It will also increase employment and spin-off jobs.

 

WHAT IS THE BEST MICRO MARKET TO BUY RESIDENTIAL PROPERTY IN IF I WANT TO CAPITALIZE ON THE GROWTH IN MOBILE?

The US Census Bureau ranked the Eastern Shore in Baldwin County as the #1 Micropolitan area for population growth. Published in the first quarter of 2008, the study surveyed all Micropolitan areas in the country for population growth since 2000. The results showed the Eastern Shore added 31,350 new residents in the past seven years to bring the total population to 171,770.

The Eastern Shore in Baldwin County is the premiere micro market, hands down. There are two primary reasons for this:

1. People who work in Mobile usually prefer to live in the Eastern Shore because it offers a more desirable lifestyle with superior shopping, restaurants and community life.
2. The Eastern Shore is going through its own economic boom. Retail mega-centers, restaurants, hotels and new office space all break ground this year. Job growth in the Eastern Shore and job growth in Mobile both translate to housing demand in the Eastern Shore.

WHERE IS THE CHARMONT SUBDIVISION AND WHY IS THE LOCATION SO PREMIUM?

Charmont is in Baldwin County, just a few miles from the new retail developments in the Eastern Shore and an easy commute to downtown Mobile. It is located in the northwest corner of the town of Loxley, right on the border of the more expensive towns of Daphne and Spanish Fort, with premium access to all that the Eastern Shore has to offer. It is about 30 minutes north of Orange Beach and Gulf Shores, and 10 minutes inland from the Bay.

THE BABY BOOMERS BEGIN TO RETIRE OVER THE NEXT TWO YEARS. IS IT TRUE THAT BALDWIN COUNTY HAS NO PROPERTY TAXES FOR SENIOR CITIZENS?

YES! The Baby-Boomers begin to retire next year, setting the stage for one of the largest population shifts in recent history. If you were about to retire, and you were sick and tired of shoveling snow and looking for place to live out your golden years, might you think of moving South? And since Florida is so astronomiically priced, and Baldwin County Alabama has beaches that look identical to Florida, as well as some of the top rated golf courses in the country, and NO PROPERTY TAXES FOR PEOPLE OVER 65 YEARS OLD, would that be a retirement incentive? You could have the Florida lifestyle at a fraction of the cost, less crowded and NO property taxes!

WHAT WILL THE CHARMONT HOMES LOOK LIKE WHEN THEY ARE COMPLETE?

They are approxmiately 1510 sq ft detached single family brick homes with spacious yards, granite countertops, staineless steel appliances and ceramic tile floors. This is not a standard tract home subdivision. Charmont was designed as a real showpiece community--a track-custom hybrid, featuring at least 10 different external elevations with attention to detail and distinction on each one, 4 different floor plans, and 4 different internal color schemes, naturally spaced throughout the community.

 

 

 

ALL STAINLESS STEAL APPLIANCES INCLUDED:

 

 

 

WHAT AMENITIES DOES THE SUBDIVISION OFFER FOR THE RESIDENTS?

Charmont creates a premium lifestyle for residents who can retreat to an oasis of beautifully landscaped common areas, including a swimming pool with relaxing sun deck and landscaped green area.

WHAT IS THE APPRAISED VALUE OF THESE HOMES?

The first two phases of construction have been complete and the appraisals came in at $188,000.

Neighboring subdivisions adjacent to Charmont are selling slightly larger homes (1750-1850 sq. ft range) of comparable quality for $235,000 (and those are in communitites with NO swimming pool!).

WHAT IS MY PRICE?

$166,500

WHY IS THIS THE PREMIERE INVESTMENT PROPERTY TO BUY?

After extensively studying the micro-markets, we have selected this specific product because it is extremely scarce and therefore creates value in the marketplace (imperative in an appreciation play!). In this premium area of Loxley, primary homeowners want to buy nicer homes with brick exteriors, a nice yard, granite countertops, etc. But almost all the 3BR/2BA homes that have brick, granite, stainless steel appliances and ceramic tile are larger and more expensive than ours. That means two things:

1. If local employees cannot afford to own or rent one of these more expensive homes, they currently need to move further away from the jobs and shopping centers and get into a lower end investor-grade home. We are solving that problem by creating a higher end home with a premium pool complex, that is also affordable, so people can live near their jobs on the Eastern Shore (Demand Real Estate!).
2. This home provides a premium exit strategy, because end users want to buy nicer homes in communities with higher end amenities. We are buying the least expensive home (with these caliber amenities) in the most expensive area of Loxley. That positions us perfectly if the area appreciates substantially over the next 3-5 years, because people who can currently afford a $250,000 home on their salaries will still be able to afford Charmont.

I LIVE OUT OF STATE. HOW WILL I MANAGE THE PROPERTY?

Finding a top quality property management company to lease and manage your property is one of the most important components of a successful out-of-state real estate investment. You may use any property management company you want, and we can provide you with a short list of companies that are willing to offer discounts to Maverick buyers.  

The property management company can also advertise your home as a “lease with an option to buy”. This means that you have a tenant who would like to buy the property at a future date. The tenant signs the lease with you and also signs an option agreement, giving them a right to purchase the home at a fixed price within a fixed timeframe, pays you a non-refundable option premium in exchange for that right, and pays a higher monthly rent (some of which gets credited towards their future purchase price). As a lease-option tenant intends to buy the home one day, they usually take very good care of the home, just as a primary homeowner would.

* Like all markets, the rental market is subject to adjust and there are no guarantees of monthly rent.

WHAT ARE MY FINANCING OPTIONS?

All Buyers will be required to put up a $5,000 reservation deposit to reserve a unit. The $5,000 is REFUNDABLE for any reason (and will state that on the reservation form), until you sign the hard contract.

When you sign the hard contract, the deposit will become NON-REFUNDABLE.

You are welcome to use any lender of your choice but we do have a short list of local prefered lenders that we are happy to recommend upon request.  

WHAT IS THE MONTHLY HOA FEE AND WHAT DOES IT INCLUDE?

The monthly Home Owners Association fee is estimated to be $85. In addition to maintenance of common area amenities, this fee INCLUDES LAWNCARE AND LANDSCAPE MAINTENANCE FOR EACH INDIVIDUAL HOME. This way every home will look pristine from the outside, enhancing community appeal for re-sale to primary home owners!

IS THE COST OF INSURANCE HIGH ON THE GULF COAST?

We did very careful research on this and the answer is just another added bonus of investing in the town of Loxley. Charmont did not get touched by Hurricane Katrina. It is 30 minutes north of the beach and 10 minutes inland from the Bay. It is also in Zone X, which means it is officially designed a NON-Flood Zone. Furthermore, these are brick homes and built to the new international hurrican grade standards to withstand 140mpi windloads. For these reasons, insurance rates are not that different from elsewhere around the country. A standard one year investor policy with Full WIND, HAZARD and LIABILITY INSURANCE is around $63/month*.

* All insurance quotes are subject to change by the day. Rates and programs are never guaranteed.

WHAT ARE THE ESTIMATED PROPERTY TAXES?

Based on the standard formula for calculating local property taxes, it is estimated that they will be approximately $91/month. You heard correctly. Baldwin County has one of the lowest property tax rates in the country!

DO THESE PROPERTIES HAVE THE POTENTIAL FOR A POSITIVE MONTHLY CASH FLOW?

Yes, but it depends on how much money you put down, what your individual financing qualifications are and what type of mortgage you choose. This is a sample cash flow analysis from one of the buyers who closed in Charmont already.  THERE IS NO GUARANTEE THAT YOUR NUMBERS WILL BE THE SAME OR SIMILAR.  ALL BUYERS MUST DO THEIR OWN DUE DILIGENCE BEFORE PURCHASING PROPERTY. 

 

WHEN YOU LOOK BACK IN 5 YEARS, WHAT WILL YOU BE ABLE TO SAY ABOUT YOUR DECISION TO BUY?

Every once in a while an opportunity comes along so extraordinary, that it becomes a defining moment in a person’s financial life. A successful investor is defined by their ability to pull the trigger when they see a premium investment opportunity. Today we look back and see who got into the aggressive growth markets of the last 5 years, and who is talking about “if only I had”. Another pivotal moment is before us today, and 5 years from now the same discussion will be had...what group will you be in?
