My first BRRRR deal in Rochester NY
Hello, Im currently working on my 2nd deal however this is 1st attempt at using the BRRRR strategy. I have a short sale under contract and I'm set to close at the end of the month. I would like to throw the numbers out here and see if theres anything I'm missing? The property is a single family home in a nice area of the city with a high rental demand, the purchase price is: $65,000 repairs: $19,500 ARV is between $115,000 -$120,000. I have a bank that will allow me to refi at 80% of ARV after 6 months. I believe the property will conservatively rent for $1350 per month if not more. I've run the number's several times and it looks like the property will cash flow $220+ per month (after the refi) and I should be able to refi most if not all of my original investment out after the 6 months seasoning period. Is there anything that I'm missing here?
$65,000 (pp) + $19,500 (repairs) = $85,000
ARV $115,000 x 80% =$92,000
Ive used the BRRRR calculator and as far as i can see everything looks good. I would really appreciate any feed back from some seasoned investors.
Thanks!

You're missing the closing costs (once for the short sale, and once for the refi mortgage) and holding costs (how many months to rehab * taxes & insurance).
First close prob be around 2k. Then the refi prob around 4-5k. If you can rehab it in a month, you're looking at about 2 months to close on the refi, so 3 months holding costs.
