The Ideal Investor: Unveiling the Hidden Faces of Success

As the adage goes, appearances can be deceiving, and this holds true in the world of investing as well. You might think that the ideal investor is a seasoned mogul with an impressive portfolio, but let’s debunk that myth right away. The truth is, the ideal investor can be anyone – a single parent, an aspiring entrepreneur, a busy executive, and even you.

Welcome to a paradigm shift where financial success knows no bounds, and anyone can harness the power of real estate to build a secure future.

Diversifying Your Financial Landscape

If you’re already acquainted with the benefits of a real estate portfolio from BG Wealth Group, you’re aware of the advantages it brings – tangible assets, stable appreciation, and insulation against the volatility of banks. Now, consider this: could your network, with its diverse dreams and aspirations, benefit from similar financial security?

Think about those around you – a friend who recently inherited assets due to unfortunate circumstances, a colleague navigating financial independence after a divorce, or parents striving to secure their child’s education. The potential for wealth accumulation is open to all, irrespective of their background.

Unlocking Hidden Potential

Within your circle lies a treasure trove of potential real estate investors. Individuals experiencing major life transitions are often primed for a shift in their financial strategy. An educated investor is a powerful one, and the hunger for financial knowledge is a common trait among those seeking to navigate the complex financial landscape with confidence. At BG Wealth Group, we understand this need for guidance, offering bespoke 1-1 Wealth Consultations that pave the way toward financial dreams.

We also offer you to extend this very article to your network, getting them off the starting block and moving towards a future full of wealth and stability.

A Tale of Missed Opportunities

Consider this: traditional investment vehicles – be it registered accounts or stock-based options – offer limited returns, hindered by fees. By relying solely on these, you’re missing out on a staggering 60-70% in investment yield potential. Furthermore, recent North American banking collapses serve as stark reminders of the risks associated with entrusting your funds to traditional and mainstream financial institutions.

Real estate emerges as a beacon of stability, allowing you to invest in tangible assets that are proven to weather economic uncertainties.

Building for the Long Haul

The essence of the ideal investor goes beyond instant gains. It’s about understanding the power of passive income in the long run. The joy of swift profits is undeniable, but it’s the prospect of sustained wealth generation that truly matters. Imagine securing your and your children’s future with streams of income that continue to flow even when you’re no longer actively involved. This is the vision embraced by the ideal investor – a vision BG Wealth Group is adept at realizing.

The Story
261-281 9th Street East is a mixed-use (commercial/residential) building located in the heart of the downtown River District of Owen Sound. The building consists of 9 residential units (7-1 bedrooms, 1-2 bedroom & 1 studio apartment) and six commercial units. BG Wealth Properties purchased the building in March 2019 for $1,055,000 and immediately started employing its value-add model by renovating units and attracting high-quality tenants at attractive rental rates.

At the time of acquisition, one-bedroom residential units were renting anywhere from $550-$800 per month, and the two-bedroom unit was renting for $700/month. Through our value-add program, BG dramatically improved the condition of these units while successfully increasing rents on one-bedroom units to $1,300 per month, and $1,400 per month for the two-bedroom unit.

Similarly, commercial tenants were paying anywhere from $8.50-$10.00 per square foot at the time of acquisition (inclusive of taxes, maintenance, and insurance). Within the first 6 months, BG successfully started renovating commercial units and had new tenants sign long term leases at an average rate of $14.00 per square foot + $4.00/foot TMI (taxes, maintenance, and insurance) – for a total average rate of $18.00 per square foot.

Fully rented, the building carries a value of $2.2 Million based on rents we have achieved through our value-add business model.

This property still has more upside potential.

The Story
950-956 2nd Avenue East is a mixed-use (commercial/residential) building located in the heart of downtown’s River District of Owen Sound. The building consists of 6 residential units (2-2 bedrooms, 3-1 bedroom & 1 studio apartment) and two commercial units. BG Wealth Properties purchased the building in March 2019 for $555,000. The five upstairs vacant residential units were gutted with no tenants, while the downstairs had a high-end spa and a furniture store as commercial tenants.

In March 2021, BG Wealth Group partnered with an institutional lender and secured funding to renovate all residential units. In addition, given the shortage of high-end vacation rentals in the City of Owen Sound, BG has converted all six units to short-term vacation rentals, which will launch at the end of 2021.

In June 2021, BGWP attracted an up-and-coming Flame ‘N Bricks pizzeria franchise located in the commercial space beside the high-end spa. The culmination of high-end vacation rentals on the upper level, a spa and a pizzeria on the lower level will make this building one of the most attractive buildings in the downtown River District.

BG received a post-renovation appraisal of $1.3 Million on the building – more than 2X the original purchase price. Fully rented, the building carries a value of $1.6 Million based on typical short-term rental rates of the area.
