Would you do this deal?
All,
Working on my first investment property. I came across 2 identical duplexes across the street from one another owned by the same seller. This is a lower income neighborhood but very family oriented and not rough at all. It's about 30 min from a major city between a hospital and a university.
4 units - 3 bed, 2 bath each.
Purchase Price: $200,000 (total for both units. Conventional loan with 25% down around 5.1% interest)
Rental income: 3,200/mo 38,400/yr ($800 per unit)
Operating Expense Monthly Annual
Taxes: 503 6,040
Ins: 150 1,800
Vacancy: 320 3,840
Repairs: 320 3,840
Cap Ex: 320 3,840
Prpty Mgmt: 320 3,840
Other: 50 600
Total 1,983 23,800
Mortgage Expense: 814 9,786
Cash Flow: 402 4,824
I know it's not incredibly lucrative but as everyone knows, it is a little harder to find slam dunk deals these days. What do you think?
