Question about possible first deal on duplex
Hi,
I'm looking to buy my first duplex and I would greatly appreciate some feedback on the numbers below. The duplex is listed at $200,000 but I wouldn't accept anything above $175,000. The numbers below would be if I got it at $175k.
Income:
- Total rent = $1,700/mo
- First story 2 bed/1 bath = $650/mo
- Second story 2 bed/1 bath = $650/mo
- Garage apartment = $400/mo
Expenses with 4.375% mortgage:
- 25% down payment = $43,750
- Principal & interest = $655/mo
- Property taxes = $175/mo
- Home insurance = $82
Here's a screenshot from some basic calculations.
I know that's a lot of cash to put down but I'm a conservative person and I'd like to avoid little or no down payment situations. I know it doesn't exactly meet the 1% rule or get the $100/door rule. Any thoughts or major concerns? Do the numbers look correct?
Thanks in advance for your help!
