Stop Betting Your 1031 on One Property

Last week I showed you how we score individual properties.

Today I want to show you what happens when we combine high-scoring properties into one portfolio.

Why One Property Isn't Diversification

If you're sitting on 1031 exchange proceeds or 401k funds you want out of the stock market, the usual advice is: buy one rental property.

That's not diversification.

That's one roof, one neighborhood, one tenant, one risk.

How a Blended Portfolio Works

We build blended portfolios instead, spread across property types, neighborhoods, states, and build years — the same logic as a mutual fund, so no single asset carries your return.

A Real Example

Here's a real 5-property blend we underwrote for a 1031 client.

Financed at 25% down, scored on the same system from last week:

The Numbers, All In

A few from our current pipeline that hold up under this test:

• Total cash invested: $370,160 (25% down + closing across all 5)
• Blended ROI (cash flow + paydown + appreciation): 20.5%
• Built-in equity at close: $153,000 (11.6% of purchase price, day one)

That's $2,119/month in cash flow on $370K deployed, plus five doors across two states and two property types instead of one address carrying all the risk.
