Is this a good deal for my first rental property?
Hi folk,
Thank you very much for your time to read and comment.
After listening to the BiggerPockets podcast for 6 months, I am very excited to get involved in real estate to build my freedom number. My goal is to get $150-$200 cash flow per unit. I have a full time Job, so I am buying properties from the turnkey company out of states.
Here is the number. It's a single family house, built in 1986, 3 beds, 2 baths,1 car garage, 1330 sqft, located on B neighborhood. Rehab is done; cost $29K.
- Purchase price: $91,900
- downpayment: $18,380 (20%)
- Rental income: $10,740 annual ($895 per month), It's tenant occupied now. Lease is two years.
- Annual expense estimate: $10,008
- 5% vacancy - $537
- Property Taxes - $1,190
- Insurance - $430
- 5% Maintenance Reserve - $537
- 10% CapEx - $1,074 (This is based on the assumption that extensive rehab costs ~$30k and lasts for 30 yrs. But I am not sure if this is right)
- 14% property management -$1,504 (The PM is 10%, but they charge 1 month fee to screen tenants. I factor in that they got new tenant every 2 yrs. Based on this, the PM per month can be up to 14%)
- $4736 mortgage (30 years @ 5% fixed)
- Cash Flow: $732/yr - $61/mo (if budget CapEx), $1806/yr - $ 150/mo (if didn't budget CapEx, because they spent $29k to rehab to property.)
- Cash on cash: 3.5% (if budget CapEx), 8.5% (if not budget CapEx, but remains 5% maintenance)
Is it a good deal from a turkey company? At what price would you buy? I am still not sure how much CapEx I should budget.
Thank you very much again for taking time to read and feedback.
