South Lake Associates Investment Services
Thinking about investing in Seattle real estate? Make sure you know the market.

What Investment Services Can We Provide You?
Selecting an Investment Property:
We are experienced at working with you to quantify your goals for real estate investing, and can offer guidance on every issue including income needs and tax benefits, as well as your willingness and ability to manage the property. We use this careful analysis to identify properties that align with your personal criteria. Prior to purchasing any property, we suggest you meet with your tax adviser, and we also help you define a smart long-term exit strategy based on your desired investment horizon.
Commercial and Residential Investments
We have extensive experience helping our clients buy and sell residential income properties, from single family homes to duplexes and four-plexes, through multi-unit apartment complexes. We’ve negotiated purchases, leases and sales of offices, warehouses, industrial and retail buildings.
Tax Benefits and Estate Planning
You may qualify for tax advantages, including depreciation, personal residence tax exemptions, tax deferred exchanges (called 1031 exchanges or Starker exchanges), and certain write-offs. We can also help you create new estate plans for your heirs, without any immediate tax liability.
Helping you Understand your Cap Rate
A property’s capitalization rate is a calculation of the relationship between the property’s price and the rate of return it generates, given its income less certain expenses. Cap rates vary across property types, locations, and under different interest rate and business environments.
