In this YouTube short, Tommy Dobczyk critiques a proposed valuation of $2.1 million for a commercial real‑estate acquisition, labeling it a "no‑go" and arguing that a defensible price range is $1.0–$1.3 million, with a possible stretch to $1.5 million pending due‑diligence. He notes the $2.1 M listing appears on CREXi, likely derived from comparable sales. Dobczyk then outlines three financing structures—seller‑carry hybrid, conventional commercial land loan, and owner‑user SBA loan—concluding that an owner‑carry arrangement best fits the deal.

The Shark Verdict is no-go at 2.1 for a straight investment acquisition. A more defensible range looks at 1 to 1.3 with a stretch around 1.5, only if diligence confirms. So not sure where it got the 2.1, except for maybe it's going off of the comps, right? I think that's where it's coming up with it. We could ask it, go ahead and keep going down to the bottom there. It says it's on CREXi. Oh, okay. It was listed on CREXi at 2.1. Okay. So seller carry hybrid, conventional commercial land loan, owner, owner-user SBA. And so those are your 3 options. So best fit is to do the owner carry.
