4plex in Milwaukee - Input Needed
Looking at a brick 4plex in Milwaukee. It would be my first out of state investment and I am wondering if it is too much to take on (because of possibly being in a higher risk area).
It is in zip code 53205 right on the border by 53208 and 53233 (just south of James Groppi High School). The seller described the neighborhood as B class with a large Asian population. The duplex itself is very old (100 years old I think). Rehab was done in 2013.
Below are the details:
Purchase price: $125k
Monthly rents: $2100 (4 2bds/1 ba all renting at $525)
Haven't decided yet if we would pay all cash or use a private lender but if we use the lender our PITI would be about $950. Using cash would leave $350 for Taxes and Insurance.
Maintenance (10%): $210
Vacancy (10%): $210
Management (10%): $210
So if we leverage our money, we are looking at about $520 CF/month.
All cash we are looking at $1120/month.
Do those numbers look right? My biggest question is how locals view that area.
Thanks in advance for any input!
