Fist commercial deal - look ok?
I’m under contract to purchase my first 6 unit commercial deal. I wanted to get the community’s opinion on my analysis.
Purchase price: 315000 5.9% CAP
B class property
25% down payment
5.25 interest rate 5/5
20 year amortization
Expenses
Vacancy: 8%
Property tax: 7,000/year
Insurance: 2,000/year
Property management: 12%
Maintenance: 5%
CapEX: 5%
Utilities: 325/month
Landscaping: 50/month
Loan payment: 1,592/month
Income
Gross rent: 3,485/month
Storage: 200/month
I will basically break even using the above projections. Not ideal. The property has a newer roof, no central furnace (baseboard heating), and wall ac units. Units are in good condition with the exception of one which needs a total refresh. CapEX should be low for this property.
After taking ownership of the property I plan to slowly increase rents up to a total of 4,050 and bill the tenants back for water. This makes the property a 8.7% CAP. This will increase the cash flow to around 114/door. I will also increase the storage units rents to 250/month.
Do my pro forma numbers appear accurate? I’m more familiar with analyzing residential 2-4 unit deals in C class neighborhoods. Thanks for any tips, tricks and suggestions.
