Analyzing my first potential deal
Next week I will be looking at my first potential investment property. It is a triplex, I ran the numbers through the BP calculator and they appear to work, however asking for additional advice never hurts.
Here are the numbers:
Asking Price: $175,000
Taxes: $5617 per year
Insurance: $1950 per year
Water and Sewer: $1770 per year
Unit 1: 3 bed, 2 bath Rent: $1,100 per month.
Unit 2: 2 bed, 1 bath Rent: $700 per month
Unit 3: 1 bed, 1 bath Rent: $625 per month
Using the 50% expense rule with the calculator it stated that this should cash flow $460 per month.
I plan on getting a conventional mortgage and putting 20 percent down
All units are currently occupied. The property is in a good blue collar neighborhood within walking distance to an excellent elementary school.
I will know more on the condition of the units and the building next week, but on the surface this seems like a logical deal. Any and all advice is welcome, thank you for your time.
