Have you had enough of the landlord business and you're ready to sell your property, but you don't want to pay 25%, 30% or more in taxes on the sale? Or, maybe it's simply a good time to sell, but you're not sure how to put your money to work most effectively. Selling and buying another rental would put you right back at square one. And selling and letting your money sit idle isn't a great option, either. Fortunately, there's a Solution.

Want to invest with a 1031 Exchange?
There is one additional step you need to complete before the two steps mentioned above can occur and that is setting up your 1031 Exchange escrow account. Having your 1031 account set up is an important step that has to take place before you sell your investment property on the open market that you will be using for the exchange. Your proceeds from the sale have to go into a 1031 Exchange escrow account for it to qualify to be TAX FREE. You don’t have to do it alone either. We are happy to assist you in setting up your 1031 account. We will set up your 1031 escrow account for you in-house through our exchange company, Equity 1031. This way, the whole process is handled through one company and you enjoy significant savings with exchange fees of only $100 per property.
Once your property is sold, we follow the first two steps mentioned above. It is that easy.

We lease the homes back from you, taking on complete responsibility for the property. Then, we pay you a Set Monthly Income regardless of the performance of your properties.
P.S. The performance of your properties is our responsibility. In fact, you’ll never know if a water heater breaks or a tenant leaves, because we are 100%
responsible for handling and paying for the management,
maintenance, and expenses — including property taxes. Even if your property is vacant, you will still be paid your Set Monthly Income.

As you can see, depreciation is part of our investor’s returns because it is a tax write off, which means more money in your pocket.
Should you decide to have Hughes Capital set up a Secured Portfolio for you, you'll earn a Set Monthly Income. The Set Monthly Income amount has nothing to do with the individual homes you own. Your Set Monthly Income is based off two things:
We find that most of our 1031 Exchange investors earn double or more what they were previously earning on their investment properties.
How is this possible? It’s easiest to use an example.
Let’s say that 25 years ago John and Sue bought a rental property for $300,000, with $100,000 in equity and a $200,000 mortgage. Today, $50,000 of the mortgage is paid off, and the property has appreciated $200,000 giving them a total equity of $350,000. Let's assume that this property has a net income of around $1,500/month or $18,000/year.
(Remember that your net income is rent minus all of your expenses. It is what you get to keep in your pocket.)
With a Secured Portfolio, you could be making double or more because you are putting every single dollar of your equity straight to work for you. We see this all the time with 1031 Exchange investors.
Here is how a typical property is allocated financially:

Our investments are recession resistant.
We purchase homes with market values of $50,000 to $150,000 — a range we’ve found to be a “sweet spot” for investing. While the economy may go through highs and lows, rent in this price range stays steady, so our investors enjoy predictable income month to month.
We don’t gamble with your investment by betting on appreciation to produce a profit. Our reliable cash flow model keeps generating predictable net returns, month after month, making appreciation just a bonus down the road.
In an economic downturn, renters don’t upsize — they downsize. This means our core market homes with affordable rents can always count on a solid renter base, resulting in stable, consistent cash flow whether we're in an up or down economy.
We purchase real estate assets that deliver long-term stability, consistent cash flow, and recession-resistant returns for investors. Here’s how:
Reliable cash flow model
Diverse asset locations
Recession resistant rents
We purchase assets only in select U.S. neighborhoods that fit our buying criteria. Having real estate holdings in different cities and states produces a strong, healthy, geographically diverse portfolio that functions like a giant safety net for investors.
Solid renter base

"The value proposition for investing in a Hughes Capital fund goes beyond the high rate of return — the funds have very little correlation with the stock market. As an investor, it has been difficult to find opportunities that do not follow the ebbs and flows of stocks. Hedge funds are proving to be expensive, currently underperforming and not as “alternative” as one would like. Hughes Capital’s funds look to be uncorrelated to the stock market.
I am also appreciative of the deep and serious research that Steve Sixberry and Greg Hughes put into the fund strategies and operations before they offer them to investors. Their approach is detailed and skeptical. Only time will tell on performance and correlation. There is always risk in any investment, but I plan to stay invested.
Please do your own research and consider your financial situation, goals and risk tolerance before any investment."

$18,000 per year of net income is not bad, but the equity John and Sue built up within the investment property (by paying down their mortgage and by gaining $200,000 in appreciation) is no longer being utilized in an optimal way because while their equity has significantly increased, their net income has only slightly increased.
Let’s say that 25 years ago John and Sue bought a rental property for $300,000, with $100,000 in equity and $200,000 in debt.
Today, $50,000 of the mortgage is paid off, and the property has appreciated $200,000 giving them a total equity of $350,000.

It all comes down to one question:
Would you rather be an Investor or a Landlord?
As a landlord, you have to deal with a lot of uncertainty: property management issues, unexpected expenses, late rent, vacancies, and so much more. With a Secured Portfolio from Hughes Capital, all those uncertainties go away, and you never have to think about landlord hassles again. In the table below, see how a Secured Portfolio compares to being a landlord of a typical rental property.

1. Your investment amount
2. The performance of Hughes Capital’s real estate portfolio as a whole
We currently have 1,100+ doors under management and we are purchasing around 50 more every month. These homes are spread across five cities and three states, creating diversification and safety for our portfolio and in turn, for your investment. The performance of your individual homes will not matter. Your investment is backed by the strength, security, and diversity of Hughes Capital’s portfolio of 1,100+ doors under management. That is what being an investor, and not a landlord, is all about.
If you are a cash or 1031 Exchange investor, you will be able to write off depreciation on your taxes, making your final net return even higher.
You also have the option to finance your homes, which will significantly increase your net return. We can help you get financing through our preferred lender who is set up and ready to finance these Secured Portfolio homes.
