Multifamily Good Deal or No?
Greetings,
I'm hoping to get some feedback on my first OOS property I'm looking at. Would you buy it given below? Good cashflow seems very difficult to find these days:
Medium sized city; midwest college town. Town experiencing growth and new development inc. new hospital. No obvious deferred maintenance thus far. Inspection not yet completed.
Property: side by side 1976 2/1 duplex with new roof
Prospective #s:
Purchase price: $200k
Down: 25% ($50K)
Current total rent: $1550
Cashflow:
Rent: $1550
- $200 (vacancy/repairs)
- $1050 (mortgage(inc. tax/ins)
- $160 Prop. Management
= $140 total cashflow
Cashflow is not great, but I think rents could be raised. Both units rented. And I like the growth/ new construction in the area.
Thoughts?
Much thanks.
