[Calc Review] Help me analyze this deal - Would you do this deal?

Hi BP,

 I am looking a the following triplex (View report) and trying to determine if its a good purchase (conventional).

My biggest hangups are the age of the house and the fact that the utilities are included in the rent which I would change to have the tenants pay directly after the initial lease is up.

Thanks for the help!

    Not unless there's some value add opportunity along with sticking utilities to the tenants. It would take you over 9 years to make back your down payment and actually start profiting with that current cash flow. I always look to buy rental properties using the BRRR strategy so that I can pull at least some of my money back out.
