Regardless of cap rates or interest rates, heavy value-add projects still make a lot of money if there are proven ways to dramatically increase revenue and Net Operating Income in the short term. The key is having the knowledge and the systems to find off-market deals and the ability to consistently execute on the business plans. Matt Ricciardella, Founding and Managing Partner of Crystal View Capital, has made a career out of finding great, off-market deals, adding value, and generating huge returns. Crystal View finds great value-add opportunities in Mobile Home Parks and Self-Storage facilities in secondary and tertiary markets and currently operates in 28 states.
