Is this deal too much for me?
I'm 21 years old and I have been searching for awhile for my first deal but it always seems like something is coming up and delaying things. I recently came across a 68 unit apartment complex (48 apt. 20 Condo)
with an asking price of 3.2m. I feel like its bigger than your normal first step and its almost common sense to think its too much and I shouldn't waste my time even thinking of it. But if the numbers all make sense why not right? Below are the Numbers I've gathered:
48 APARTMENT COMPLEX – PARK LANE APARTMENTS
20 UNIT TOWN HOUSE COMPLEX – NORTH COLONY TOWN HOUSES

PARK LANE APARTMENTS
16 ONE BEDROOM APARTMENTS
32 TWO BEDROOM APARTMENTS
RENT INCLUDES HEAT AND HOT WATER
LAUNDRY ROOMS – 8
NORTH COLONY TOWN HOUSES
20 TWO BEDROOM, ONE AND ONE HALF BATHROOMS
BASEMENTS WITH WASHER/DRYER HOOK-UPS

A few things to note. I am aware these numbers are ProForma and I will be doing my due diligence to get proper records but I believe the numbers show promise and deserve to be looked into at the very least. I have visited the properties and even managed to get into one of the condos as well as spoke with several residents and everything stated above in regards to the maintenance and rents seems to be true and he left nothing out that i saw on my first run through of the property but I would obviously have it properly inspected beforehand to make sure.
Also is there anything I am missing and should have asked the seller for? I am kind of stuck at the moment with how huge of a move this could be for my career however I don't want to get caught up in what could be and miss something. Any advice or tips from anyone would be greatly appreciated!
