[Sketchy RE PE Firm] Fresh College Graduate Seeking Help n Input

Hi Y’all! I just graduated from college last December and am seeking opportunities in commercial real estate ( in a market like this smh). I recently got an offer from a real estate private equity and am currently doing some digging on this company to make sure it’s Bona fide.

So I haven’t been able to find too much helpful info about this company. This company claimed that it’s been around since 2009, but I couldn’t find any deals closed by them, or any portfolio listed on their website. Maybe they are keeping a low profile idk. The only information I could find is an award awarded to them by ‘wealth and finance’ magazine (https://www.wealthandfinance-news.com/), a magazine published by a UK B2B publisher called AI Global Media. Is it a legit award/ magazine? They only got 2k followers on Twitter, anyone heard of it?

Another information is that the two principals are frequent speakers for IMN (information management network, https://mobile.imn.org/) event. Is it a legit/ recognized organization in real estate?

I def need to find out more about this firm, but don’t know how. Can someone be so kind to shed some light on how I can do a background check on this company with the resources at hand?

I really appreciate your input and help! This will be my first full time position out of college so it means so much to me.

Aren't comps/CMAs useless with buyer credits at close happening now?

I'm looking into buying a new construction townhouse in my HCOL US city. I'm seeing builders offering interest rate buydowns worth $20k-$60k on $800k homes (rather than just lowering prices) in order to keep their comps high for their other units, now that buyer demand has been declining. I asked my agent about these, and he said these buydowns aren't even the full story: buyers can write all kinds of other credits into an offer, like their closing costs, prepaid sewer fees, etc. Apparently cash buyers can just write in a "buyer credit at close" for any amount in their offer. So a new townhouse that appeared to sell for $800k in the MLS might have actually been a cash offer with a $100k+ buyer credit at close, meaning the buyer only spent $700k or less in total, but to the rest of the world they can only see the $800k! So that made me realize I can't trust comps/CMAs for other new construction townhouses. The sales prices could be way lower than they appear

Fast Rising HOA Fees on NYC Condo, No Budget Provided

My wife and I are first time homeowners and could use some advice on a situation we've been having with our management company and Board. We bought a condo in Brooklyn two years ago, and since then our HOA fees have climbed dramatically. In August of last year, our fees were increased by ~30% and just yesterday we received notice that this new figure would be increased by 16% as of June 1st. The by-laws for our building state that ten days before such a change goes into effect, the Board must provide unit owners with the itemized budget upon which the new numbers were based. This didn't happen last year, and when I asked the management company about it, they just kept vaguely insisting the Board had done due diligence. After I kept pressing, they finally sent a budget that was several years old, so obviously not the one that the new numbers were based on. When I asked the management company for contact information for the Board to get further clarification, I was told that th

How to create fidelity investments current bank statement for lender during escrow

I transferred a certain amount to my bank account to complete the minimum down payment required. The bank wants a current statement of the transaction. Unfortunately, fidelity only does quarterly statements so a December statement is not available and we are due to close next week. I called fidelity and they they can only provide a letter but the bank said that won’t suffice. Any way I can find or make one of my own that has my account number/name along with all the recent month’s activities? submitted by /u/bodaciousbeans [link] [comments] source https://www.reddit.com/r/RealEstate/comments/zmnnqo/how_to_create_fidelity_investments_current_bank/
