Welcome!

I’m Debbie Marino, broker and owner of Properties In Silicon Valley.

I understand that selling your fourplex investment property in Silicon Valley is easier said than done and I am here to take the guesswork out of the process and help you solve your problem. You can count on me to help you get top dollar for your multi-unit as quickly as possible.

Selling an Investment Property in Silicon Valley

Whether being a landlord isn’t right for you or you’re ready to step up your investment game, we can help. We specialize in helping people buy and sell multi-family properties all over Silicon Valley, and we can find buyers so you can move on to the next chapter. Many of our clients:

  • Realize that managing a property quickly becomes a full-time job, and they want out
  • Are ready to buy a bigger, better investment property through a 1031 exchange

  • Are tired of vetting tenants, running background checks and checking references
  • Don’t want to serve as maintenance pros or continuously hire maintenance professionals
  • Have a tough time collecting rents and working toward alternate resolutions with tenants

No matter why you want to sell your investment property, whether it’s a duplex, triplex, fourplex or other multi-family property, we can get you out from under it so you’re free to invest your money elsewhere.

Why Work With Me

Selling an investment property – particularly a fourplex – is different from selling any other type of property in Silicon Valley. The buyers looking for these types of investments are different from those who want smaller properties, and you don’t ordinarily reach them using the same channels a single-family seller uses. But what does that mean for you if you’re selling a fourplex?

Selling an investment property – particularly a fourplex – is different from selling any other type of property in Silicon Valley.

But what does that mean for you if you’re selling a fourplex?

Selling an Investment Property: Fourplexes in Silicon Valley

Fourplexes – investment properties with four living units – aren’t more difficult to sell than any other type of investment property. However, selling this type of investment property requires you to work with an experienced, knowledgeable multifamily REALTOR® who understands how they’re different (and how to market them to the right buyers).

Generally, people who set out to buy fourplexes are pretty certain that a four-unit investment property is the best choice. They plan to rent out all four units and earn four streams of income, or they plan to live in one unit and rent out the remaining three. Often, these investors know just how much a property is worth – either because they’ve done their homework on a specific property or because they’re experienced in buying and selling these types of  units. That means two things: First, you must list the property at a reasonable price, and second, you must have an agent who knows how to reach these investors.

Selling an Investment Property by Pricing it Properly

Investors typically do their homework before buying a fourplex, and that means if yours is overpriced, it’s not going to sell. (Conversely, if it’s underpriced, it’s going to sell quickly – but you’re losing money you could have earned.)

Pricing can be tricky, which is why it’s important to rely on a multifamily REALTOR who will evaluate every aspect that affects what a buyer is willing to pay for an investment property. That includes:

  • Rent prices and net operating income
  • Individual unit sizes
  • The property’s cap rate
  • Property amenities
  • Location
  • The home’s age and recent upgrades

When your REALTOR evaluates your investment property to help you settle on a price, she’ll compare it to other, similar properties in the same area. That helps her determine how much buyers are likely to be willing to pay for your property.

Selling an Investment Property After Making Repairs and Upgrades

In many cases, it’s possible to sell a fourplex without making major repairs or upgrades. However, sometimes you need to invest in the property to ensure you can sell it for the best possible profit. Your REALTOR will visit your investment property with you and discuss potential repairs or upgrades that can help you sell faster or at a higher profit. Generally, this is about keeping up with what other sellers at the same price point are doing.

If you have had a property dumped in your lap and you don’t want to be a landlord, have too many memories and need to move forward, don’t know who to trust, or just want the cash for other things like education, remodeling, travel, health bills, paying taxes or anything else. This is the place to be!
