Help with Duplex Analysis and Advice
Hi,
I need help in this analysis. This is a duplex. Each unit is 2/1 bath. I went to look at the property Today. This is a B- neighborhood. All the yards in the neighborhood are well taken care of so the houses on the street are well taken care of. This duplex has a septic and everything(water and electricity) is sub-metered. The roof is about 13 years old and both AC units were replaced 4 years ago.
There is currently a tenant paying $650 per month and the other side is vacant. The investor's motivation to sell is due to being tired of running his properties. Initially, he wanted $115K but, I talked him down to $100K and he said he would split the closing costs and pay all of the 2016 taxes. I do not plan on living in it and will need to come up with the money later. According to the local property appraisal website, for 2015, it was accessed at $80,758.
Ok, so the good stuff. Below is what i anticipate the numbers to be. Is this a good deal or not? If so, why? If not, why not? What am I missing?
Cost: $100,000
Rent: $1,300 per month
Taxes: $128 per month
Repairs & Maintenance: $130 per month
Property Management: $130 per month
Insurance: $100 per month
MONTHLY EXPENSES: $994.69
MONTHLY CASHFLOW: 305.31
