Need your help, about a deal I'm considering in Philly:
Hey guys,
For you who knows the Philly market do you think this is a good deal:
Buying a house in Point Breeze, 3 bed, 1.5 bath, 1250sq ft. Really close to tasker morris station.
House goes for $250K. It think that the price is about right looking at comps. If you know the area well let me know what is your opinion. Zestimate is $315K.
Cash flow won't be great for me since I will be taking an expensive loan at 7%.Expenses would be: mortgage+taxes+home insurance= $1300
Management fee of $100 will be waived for the first year.
There are renters in the place with a contract till June 2019 and they pay $1635.
What I'm considering is that:
Get the place, have little to no cash flow and when the renters contract ends in June 2019 have them out and renovate the place and:
1. rent it out for more or
2. if the market is higher/ home value is higher after renovation, sell for a profit.
What do you think? Thank you.
