Multifamily Investment

[Ravindra Mantena]

I am looking for some help to evaluate this investment.

• one 3 story building with 24 units
• Built in 2008
• Landlord pays only water/Trash removal.
• 100% occupied

Financials.

• Sale price - 1.3 million
• Tax assessment value - 1.26 milion
• Price for Unit 55k
• Gross revenue 185K
• Expenses 76K
• NOI - 109K
• Cap rate 8.29%

Debt service - I also want to apply for commercial load ( 25% down)

Monthly payment for 1 million loan is about 5k ( Rate -4.12 , 5 year term, 30 year amortization).

Thank you for your help.

Hi Raju,

Are you sure the building was built brand new in 2008 or just re-imaged then and is much older with an (effective year built)??

Buildings for 2008 that I know of have separate meters for all tenants to pay their own utilities. Paying water by landlord is usually for older buildings.

Are you local to this property or would you be owning out of state??

185,000 with landlord paying water is about 60% costs. 185,000 X .40 = 74,000

At 1.3 million you are looking at a 6 cap and not an 8.

At 50% costs is 92,500 NOI and a 7 cap. They are saying 41% costs which might be true if they self-manage. If you are not self managing and have to pay a PM your cash flow model will be different.
