Company Analysis
Name
The company's name is Refurbish, Incorporated which is descriptive in what the company does. It is
specifically inconspicuous due to financial institution requests.
In early 2001, Refurbish incorporated and is an S-Corporation in the buying and selling of real estate.
Refurbish will buy homes and commercial buildings in need of repair below market value, and refurbish
them to market conditions and sell.
Refurbish is currently in the process of arranging financing through a local lending institution and has
obtained credit from MasterCard and American Express. The money will be used to purchase homes and
buildings that are 'good buys'. Refurbish estimates that two or three monthly mortgage payments will be
made in the time a contractor is hired, materials purchased, and job completed. The money will be used to
pay the monthly mortgage, fund materials, pay contractors, and for general cash flow.
Refurbish's goal is to buy and sell homes and single dwellings up to 6-plexes. Refurbish will be
concentrating on two types of properties, those that can be fixed and sold, and those that are attractive for
rentals. Refurbish is particularly interested in buildings that are structurally sound, however need
substantial work to make them habitable. These buildings can usually be found at low prices, and with
modest expenditures, can be rehabilitated into nice, sturdy, homes. Refurbish estimates buying two
buildings in calendar year 2001. This will depend on the properties that are available. To mitigate
Refurbish's risk, initially they plan on pursuing homes that require less work and lower profits. This will
allow them to further enhance their skills and experience.
Goals
• Within three years, Refurbish will have bought and rehabilitated six properties. Annual net income of
$14,000 - $21,000.
• Within five years, Refurbish will have experience with 10 properties and retain four as rental
properties. Annual net income of $26,000 - $36,000 ($21,000-$38,000 for selling homes and $5,000 -
$8,000 for rental income)
The S-Corporation was chose in order to protect the owners from liability. Refurbish's advisor is attorney
Jeff Minor.

Refurbish, Inc. Sample On-line Plans
The renters will be targeted in the lower middle to middle class. Refurbish is interested in maintaining a
few single-family homes in middle class areas. Typically, these individuals rent due to the excessive costs
of down payment, etc. These individuals are typically price sensitive but willing to buy on looks and
functionality. Each home will be 'packaged' to appeal to the decision influencer, not the decision-maker.
Refurbish believes that the decision influencer, typically female, will 'fall in love' with the updated kitchen
and bathroom to sway the decision-maker. The overall demographics of this market are families with
combined household income of $40,000 to $75,000 and two kids.
This market is excellent for three and four-plexes, especially the smaller apartment properties located in the
mid-town and near downtown area.
Barriers to Entry
There are no barriers to entry within the real estate and housing industry. It is a very fragmented niche that
almost any handyman can enter. As long as an individual has access to capital, he/she can purchase a home
and fix it up.
Growth Opportunities
Refurbish has two opportunities for growth; real estate sales and remodel for hire. Refurbish could increase
annual revenues by executing real estate sales themselves. This would add an additional revenue source of
4-7% per house. Refurbish also has the opportunity to expand into other house remodels and repairs.
Further investigation into this area is needed. This opportunity has the potential of adding $15,000 to
$25,000 in annual revenue.
Trade Agreements
The key agreements Refurbish will have are with real estate agents and building supply companies. As
mentioned earlier, Refurbish will work with one real estate agent in selling each home and when looking
for prospects. The exclusive agreement with the Real Estate agent is the manager of rental properties at
Real Estate Company. He has multiple agreements with tradesmen and suppliers, and has his own general
maintenance person, along with an extensive list of investors. The goal is that one real estate agent will
completely understand what Refurbish's business is and find the right buyer for the home that meets
specific revenue goals. Also, that agent will be familiar with Refurbish's business, etc.
Refurbish will also locate foreclosed properties through various organizations; banks, SBA (Small Business
Administration), Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC), Housing and Urban Development (HUD),
Veterans Administration (VA), Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac, General Service Administration (GSA), and
Internal Revenue Service (IRS). Each of these organizations offers properties for sale that have been
foreclosed.
Exit Strategy
The only exit strategy Refurbish has is selling the last house or selling the existing rental properties.
