First Deal - What Am I Missing? Need Some Help...
BP - I have a deal and I think it's good, but I can't get the math to add up and I feel like I am wanting it to be too rich, or I am missing something.
4-plex, built in 1900
2 - 1/1 (currently rented for $760 and $900. ONe has been renovated, one has not)
2- 3/1 (one currently rented for $1,350 and one working to get approved for $1,850 for section 8)
Off market purchase price of $460,000 in Ohio
I show new property taxes will be roughly $750 a month. We will use a property management company, so planning roughly 10% there.
With both 3/1's rented at the current $1,350 rate, the 1% rule falls just shy. New roof this year, 3 new water heaters (1 older).
I am struggling with analysis paralysis. I want to close my first deal, but don't want to rush something.
What is your take???
