Is this property with it?? My first deal!
Hello everyone.
So i have got my offer accepted on my first investment property! I did the home inspection and..... Many issues came up which follow:
-entire basement supports needs repairs/replacement. By that i mean the 2/4 sills have insect damage, most joists and beams have insect damage, are splitting and need more support. This 3 unit was built in 1850.
-all windows needs replacement due to window sills being rotted out and are 30+ yrs old
- all 3 water heaters need replacement.
-all exterior doors need work
i plan to negotiate to have seller take care of basement work because i expect it to be a can of worms and I'd rather them pay for it. I'm going to see if seller will split cost of window and doors with me but i doubt it. This property is expect to cash flow 600 /month with a little work to the units. With this being my first property I am very nervous but excited.
Do you all think it's worth it? Or should I back out and find something younger? I live and plan to invest in MA and finding decent deals is a little tough.
Thank you all in advance and see you next week!!!
