Investor-Grade OM Turns Oakland Fiveplex Into a Confidence-Driven Sale at $1.45M



The file
I represented the seller in the disposition of this 5-unit, 5,250 SF building in Oakland’s Laurel corridor. The asset was stabilized and separately metered—low operating burden, durable cash flow. But to get the best price, I needed to make it easy for investors to say yes.
I built an investor-grade offering memorandum with transparent current and market rents (including Section-8/HUD adjustments), capex context, and practical financing pathways. The unwarranted unit was addressed head-on—no hiding, no spin. I also negotiated the seller’s completion of garage-door upgrades before close to remove a potential objection. The result: a clean, confidence-driven sale at full ask.
If you’re selling an income property, I’ll package it the way investors want to see it—and remove the friction before it becomes a problem.
