FCR Investments

A personal approach to developing wealth.

Save time and money by investing in TICs. Tenant-in-Common is a form of holding title to real property. It allows the owner/owners to own an undivided fractional interest in the entire property. In addition, it has become the preferred investment vehicle for real property investors who wish to defer capital gains via a 1031 exchange and own real property without the management headaches. A popular choice among real estate investors seeking replacement property for their IRC Section 1031 tax deferred exchange is Tenant-in-Common Ownership (TIC), also known as fractional ownership. Under this co-ownership structure, you will own an undivided fractional interest in an entire property and share in your portion of the net income, tax shelters, and growth. Further, you will receive a separate deed and title insurance for your percentage interest in the property and have the same rights as a single owner.

It is a superb way to get into real estate both as living space and as an investment with family, friends, or with an investment club. Even in expensive areas, dividing the cost of say, a fourplex, between two, three or four people makes a middle-income person's investment manageable and positions them up for growth.

Because TIC opportunities are often "packaged" with management and financing in place, TICs offer superior efficiencies in the identification, acquisition, financing, closing, and operating stages of real estate ownership. Furthermore, fractional ownership provides you with the ability to diversify your 1031 Tax Free Exchange into more than one property and to participate in potentially larger, institutional quality properties.

Thus, small investors in one area of the country may participate in large industrial, commercial, and residential property investments all around the country with professional management. TIC investments provide simplicity by eliminating active property management headaches. Individuals who are tired of the day-to-day burdens of being a landlord or who own land and would like an income producing property will appreciate the benefits of a TIC investment.
