In 2021, I left the largest investment sales real estate company in the country to start my own company and assist customers in buying and selling apartment communities. While at the large apartment firms, I came to realize the lack of experienced apartment commercial real estate brokers in the segment.It got worse in smaller towns outside of Indianapolis and throughout Indiana. Local agents, although had great intentions, lacked knowledge or the network of buyers to successfully close multifamily transactions. There was a need, so I filled it. I wanted to empower the local investors. There were too many creepers out there wanting to take advantage and my purpose was to advise and warn of the dangers of misrepresentation from their local real estate relationships.I came to realize that with my skillset and database I could add value to the smaller/ tertiary market investors throughout Indiana. So, I went for it and started The BAFO Co. (Acronym for The Best and Final Offer Company). We retail broker your real estate investments for your gain to protect your equity.Our company now has the largest and most accurate database of apartment investment communities throughout Indiana. Within seconds we can pick up the phone and dial directly to any apartment investment owner. We talk with owners daily, hourly, monthly, yearly, We are fully aware of what is transpiring in any market in Indiana at any given time. In real-time. We've been known to make meaningful connections without expectations of any compensation to add value to our relationships. We value relationships that add value in return. Here's how we do it. ...We've got Indiana broken up into 12 economic growth regions with their respective demographics to shorten the due diligence for non-local buyers (out of state). Once an economic region is chosen we aggressively target those regions in those counties to source investment opportunities. We handle duplex style, quad style, or 5 - 200 unit transactions (in the private space).
