First Foreclosure Investment Question
Hi Team,
I'm working with a Real Estate agent that found a Foreclosure for a fix n flip deal. He gave me the numbers below and I'm not sure I understand the Commission piece. Does this look shady? The "Mortgage" section is really just me borrowing money as a loan.
Thanks for your help!
Out of Pocket
20% Downpayment
$150,000 - $30,000 = $120,000
"Mortgage"
$120,000 x 12% = $14,400
$14,000/12 = $1,200 monthly
3% Points = $3,600 Upfront
6 months x $1,200 = $7,200
Buying Closing Cost (title) etc.
$120,000 x 3% = $3,600
Attorney Fee = $1,500
Property Insurance 1 Year = $1,200
Repairs = $40,000
Commissions = $30,000
Resale Closing Cost
$325,000 x 3% = $3,600
Sales Commission = $19,500 ($325,000 x 6%)
Resale Attorney's Fees = $1,500
Miscellaneous = $3,000
Totale out of Pocket = $144,700
Total Profit: $325,000 - $264,700 = $60,300
Return on Cash: ($144,700) = 41.67% Profit
