Practicing my property analysis...can you check my work?
I suck at numbers, so I made up some for a hypothetical subject-to deal to sharpen up. Can you experienced investors please critique my work? My hypothetical plan is to take over the loan> get a tenant in> cashflow
Sellers loan terms
- P.P. $200,000
- Loan Amount $180,000 (20% DP)
- 5% interest for 30 years.
Property Data
- Current Market Value $200,000
- Tax Assessed Value $174,390
- Tax Rate 2.3%
- Current Market Rents $1500
Seller made first 5 years of payments (The amount paid off in these 5 years shouldn't factor into my cash flow calculations, correct?)
My Calculations
P&I - $966 Monthly
Taxes - $334.24
Insurance - $80 (I've read to figure $35 for every $100,000?)
$966 + 334.24 + $80 = $1380.24 (PITI) Monthly
Market Rent $1500 (-) Monthly Mortgage $1380.24 = $119.76 (potential cash flow) not including vacancy factor, repairs, capex, hoa fees, additional flood insurance.
Verdict: NO DEAL
