First Out of State Property

Posted

Looking for Multifamily Units in Raleigh, NC but the are is very hot and the properties are usually gone after being on the market for a day. I decided to try my luck in another market. I found a Triplex with 3 bedrooms and 2 baths in Fort Valley Georgia. The property is a block from Fort Valley State University. The asking price was $169k but I managed to get the seller down to $153k. Currently Under contract with a closing date of March 31. The property has management in place and has brought in $2700 over the past 12 months. Property Management is 10% of the monthly rental income. Yes it is a student rental due to its close proximity to the university. Tenants pay all utilities and there is no HOA Fee. Property tax for the year is $2160. My question to the group; is this a deal if the inspection comes back good and the property management has their act together?
