➕➗ REI Rehab Math For Visual Learners ➖✖️

Initial Scenario

  1. Loan Details:

    • Amount: $180,000
    • Interest Rate: 12% per annum
    • Term: Let's assume a 2-year term for simplicity
    • No prepayment penalty
  2. House Purchase and Rehabilitation:

    • Purchase Price of House: $130,000
    • Rehabilitation Costs: $50,000 (includes materials, labor, permits, etc.)
    • Total Investment: $180,000 (entire loan amount)
  3. Timeline for Rehabilitation:

    • Duration: 6 months
  4. Selling the House:

    • After Rehabilitation Value: $250,000
    • Sale Timeline: 2 months after completion of work
    • Profit from Sale: $250,000 - $180,000 = $70,000 (excluding interest and other costs)
  5. Interest Calculation (for 8 months):

    • Interest = Principal × Rate × Time
    • Interest = $180,000 × 12% × (8/12) = $14,400
  6. Net Profit:

    • Net Profit = Profit from Sale - Interest
    • Net Profit = $70,000 - $14,400 = $55,600

Repaying the Loan

  • Loan Repayment Amount: $180,000 + $14,400 (Interest) = $194,400
  • Early Repayment: Since there's no prepayment penalty, you repay the full amount after 8 months.

Reusing the Loan for Next Project

  1. Reapplying for the Loan:

    • Reapply for the same $180,000 loan, given your successful track record.
  2. Next Project:

    • Purchase a more valuable property or a property that can yield higher profits upon rehabilitation and sale.
    • Let's say you find a property for $160,000 with a potential rehabilitation cost of $20,000.
  3. Expected Outcomes:

    • Projected Sale Price after Rehabilitation: $300,000
    • Potential Profit: $300,000 - $180,000 = $120,000 (excluding interest and other costs)

Important Considerations:

  • Risk Factors: Real estate market fluctuations, unforeseen rehabilitation costs, delays in selling the property.
  • Other Costs: Insurance, property taxes, utility costs during rehabilitation, real estate agent fees for selling the property.
  • Continued Creditworthiness: Your ability to reuse the loan depends on maintaining good credit and the lender's assessment of your risk.
  • Market Research: Ensure thorough market research for each project to maximize profit and reduce risks.
