Wow, congratulations @Ellis San Jose
Creating Leverage to THWART a Potential Property Sale
P E T I T O Trying to gain or exert leverage over other potential owners interests in a property with the selective use of possibly a lien, restrictive easement, OR some other type of cloud that might force a seller to "hit the brakes". Not sure IF or HOW that can apply to this PETITO situation or where an entity OWNS and Controls the property Vs individual interests. Regardless seeking input and solutions to this dilemma ... P = Property An 18 Unit Multi Family Property located in Oregon The property is also subject to capped rent increases annually. 1 and 2 story units. no garages, 1.5 Spaces per tenant, includes laundry room Located in an urban area close to shops, grocery chains, restaurants, major transportation arteries & public transportation SOLD several years ago for $2,050,000 – needing updates and TLC Down payment - $450,000 Bank Loan Obtained $ 1,600,000 Current Loan Balance $1,450,000 The current Fannie Mae Multi Unit Bank Loan is FIXED at 6.77% and converts to an ARM in 2028, then matures in 2033. Current Loan Payment is $9,700.00 The Majority Member of the LLC formed to buy the property put up $350,000 + the updating and renovation costs. The Minority Members of the LLC put up $100,000 and have been managing the property (for Free) After the purchase the “partners” invested additional funds to clear out many of the units, remove the slow or non-paying tenants, and have now updated and renovated all but 2 of the total 18 units. The property is virtually turn key currently. The Property currently Brings in $25,000 GROSS Income and after Loan Debt Service, Taxes, Insurance and all expenses Currently cash flows between $6K to $8K per month. So it’s making $72K to $96K in NET annual income. The Intent was to improve the property, stabilize the occupancy, improve the cash flow, thereby improving the value and to THEN Sell the property and distribute the profits. E= Equity Current Market Value at this time in a weak market is around $2,000,000; Thus Using that Value there would be $550,000 or LESS of CURRENT Equity

Hi @Michael Morrongiello, something is off on the LLC ownership percentages you provided; 51%, 29%, & 21%, respectively, equals 101%. Regardless, if the majority owner has full say in how the LLC is operated then the minority owners may be out of luck, as I'm sure you are aware. It comes down to how the operating agreement is written. If the minority partners collectively own 50%, and the majority partner has only 50% then they could join together and potentially block the sale. Again, what does the OA say. You also talk about the "intent" when they bought the property. How was that spelled out in the operating agreement? If it says the property can only be sold after they "improved the value," then this may prevent a sale now. Could the minority partners create a new LLC with a new money partner and buy the property for the $1.95m asking price? This would net them some money from the sale and allow them to hold the property. How was the loan paid down $150k? This equity goes somewhere at the time of sale. How are the proceeds to be divided after the sale?
Happy to help.
