Hello Investors,

Welcome to Issue #70 of Dealsletter β€” the real estate deal newsletter designed for investors like you who want properties that cash flow, appreciate, or flip fast.

This week’s lineup brings serious potential:

  • A turnkey 15-unit in Sacramento with a 9% cap

  • A Lafayette, CA flip with 142% ROI potential

  • A true off-market BRRRR or flip in Antioch

  • And a San Diego long-term rental with big equity upside over time

Let’s dive in! πŸ‘‡

🚨 Note on Numbers: All calculations for investment properties are based on a 25% down payment and a current interest rate of 6.80%, unless otherwise stated. For house hacks, we assume a 5% down payment with PMI at 0.4% and a 6.24%(FHA) interest rate. We do the math so you can focus on what matters – the deals!

High ROI Lafayette House Flip

Why This Is a Great Investment

Located in the highly desirable Lafayette Valley Estates, this original 1950s ranch home sits on a 10,000 sq ft lot. With strong demand, low local inventory, and top-tier schools, this property is likely to sell above asking. Full interior rehab + market trajectory in Contra Costa = excellent flip potential. The projected ARV of $1.85M combined with only ~$192K in rehab makes this a rare flip with a projected $290K+ profit.

OFF MARKET House Flip in Antioch, CA

Why This Is a Great Investment

Off-market deals like this don’t come often. With an ARV of $430K, light rehab, and an entry price just under $300K, this Antioch property is a flexible opportunity that could serve as either a BRRRR or a flip. The numbers are tight and optimized, offering a $32K profit or the chance to cash flow once refinanced. Bonus: 7,500 sq ft lot allows for backyard expansion or ADU down the line.

San Diego 6-Unit Long Term Appreciation Play

Why This Is a Great Investment

The cash flow is strong, but the real play is equity. In 10 years, projected equity growth puts your net worth up by $3M+.
