Strip Mall Guy's Portfolio
Share
A story about a successful real estate investor known as "Strip Mall Guy" or "Strip Mall Trent" who operates anonymously on Twitter.
"Strip Mall Guy has $500 million in assets under management. His Twitter is anonymous, he's 41 years old, and uses 99.9% other people's money. He has bought roughly $500 million worth of strip malls.
His strategy is finding undervalued strip malls and fixing them up. He either holds them or flips them. The opportunity exists because there's a huge lack of data in this business - it's really hard to know if tenants are paying market rate rent. He works hard knocking on doors to find out what everyone's paying in rent. When he finds a strip mall where tenants are underpaying, he buys it, increases rents, and fixes it up.
He personally cash flows $3 million a year from this business and does it with a team of just 4 people. He started his Twitter account less than a year ago, and it's already bringing in numerous investment opportunities. People are DMing him wanting to invest in his deals, even though he's just an anonymous cartoon character on Twitter."
