Hi Martti, I've just completed my first BRRRR in Canton. I'd be happy to share my resources if you're interested. DM me. Good luck! :)


 Is it still cash flowing after the refinance? 


 Yes, it still cash flows. It would've cashed flowed more if I didn't run into my first shady contractor. Learned that lesson the hard way. His name is Dale Schenk. And I've been waiting to put him on blast in BP and tell my story for a while. 


 Tell your story - I think there's even a subsection of the BP forum called horror stories. Is it ok to connect with you (DM) to maybe discuss how you managed everything? I'm really trying to do something out-of-state, but really need to see how other people did it before possibly jumping in myself. Thanks. 


 Thanks. That will probably be the best place to share the story. 

Yes, feel free to DM.

Hi, I'm looking to refinance my Canton, OH (44714) BRRR property. Assumptions I provided to a mortgage broker is below. Below that was her response to a 30 yr fixed rate DSCR rates, plus origination and underwriting fees.

I would appreciate this community's thoughts on these rates, origination and underwriting fees. Thank you!

Assumptions:

Credit 720

Single Family Investment Property

Property Value: $120k

Amount financed: $90k or 75% LTV

NO Pre-Payment Penalty (not allowed in Ohio)

DSCR Ratio 1.25+

30 YR Fixed Rate DSCR:

  • 8.250% with $2475 in discount points. P&I payment: $660
  • 8.125% with $2148 in points. P&I payment: $668
  • 8.25% with $1800 in points. P&I payment: $676

@Su Pak

it doesn't make sense to me... a $22K entry fee + $30-40K rehab and then no way to refinance.  so you have $50-60K stuck in a property worth only $130-140k?  

 Thanks for taking the time to provide your input @Nicholas L. Just needed to hear it from someone.

Hi, reaching out to the BP community about this one. What do you think about this deal? I'd appreciate any suggestions. 

3/1.5/1,056 sq ft SFH in Akron, OH
Estimated ARV: $130k - $145k

Rehab estimate: $30-40K


-  Entry Fee (assignment included): $22,000 + CC + TC ($12k of the entry fee goes to seller)
SUB2 Mortgage takeover details. Deed is transferred to the buyer's name.  Mortgage stays in seller's name but is paid by the buyer through a promissory note (aka contract)

Mortgage Balance: $102,000
Interest Rate: 4%
PITI: $531/month

SELLER FINANCE PORTION:
Seller Finance: $300/month to seller for 53 months (4.4 years) = $16,000
Total House Payment: $831/month (PITI + Seller Finance)

NOTE about CLOSING and seller: Seller would like to remain in the house until November 12th, 2024. He is waiting to be transferred into a nursing home. Buyer could either, purchase the house now, while seller continues to make all mortgage payments until he is out, as well as NO Seller finance payments to be made until seller is out. Seller would also only receive half of down payment at COE and other half after he leaves on Nov 12th. OR, buyer waits until Nov 12th to do the deal...

Any other ideas?

@Kenny Cho thank you for your reply. My rental is in city of Pomona (bordering Claremont and right off the 10 freeway). 

My thoughts are location is ok with the colleges being about 7 miles away (cal poly Pomona and my sac). 

A GC our family knows quoted~200k for the project (which I know can vary). 

About a month or two ago I got approved to purchase a home and I was considering West Covina in San gabriel valley, I would be out of pocket 150k and that is just with 10% down and closing cost , just to inherit a mortgage of 4k plus which probably can’t cash flow and appreciation is not a guarantee.

I’m just thinking if I can spend 50k more (the ~200k) on this project to generate ~2500 from that detached adu and ~1500 from JADU, I think that sounds better. 

I would use a HELOC for the ADUs project. Yesterday, I was thinking it could be a risk but everything is just in case I can't rent out those two additional units (but with the state of everything I'm guessing affordable housing is needed).

The risk is that it takes longer to get my investment/return back. I don’t plan on selling that home. 

Money in bank is not really giving me a return so that alone is lower purchasing power with inflation. So yea I thought the adu may be best but please let me know if there is anything else I may be missing. 

Thank you!!




 Hi @Ricio Montes I also own a rental in Claremont, off the 10. I grew up in the area so I'm familiar with the demo and renting potential. I thought renting rooms out in the area had potential. I want to suggest MTR or STR. I get quite a few hits for traveling nurses looking for private entrance as one of their requirements. An ADU could be a great option and could help with cash flow. Good luck!
