cash flow vs net operating income, needs some help
I am new investor, interested in a 4 unit property in Manchester ct area, I need some help understanding if I am looking at a good investment or not? Please let me know , am I under or over estimating costs / returns?
I ran some numbers
asking price 320 k
here are my assumptions 5% interest rate, 25%down payment, property tax 8k, insurance 6k, maintenance 7k, other costs 2k, monthly rent 4 k
I used the calculator.net rental calculator, I got first year cash flow 3.5k k , NOI number comes up as 22k . IRR=5.8%
I did not include management costs looks like a not a good investment, to me.
what should be the average IRR for real estate investments.
what should be cash flow is there a bench mark number you guys look for?
