Hello all,

Putting in an offer on duplex- would love feedback! (Each is 1bed1bath)

**I am OOS so will pay premium on PM/ lawn management etc

approx 6% rate
162K Total, DP 24.3 K which is 15%, seller pays all closing costs. (30 year conventional loan)

Both units are completely redone.
i will have to furnish appliances (refrigerators, stoves, W&D) for short term rental. Great curb appeal.

can SAFELY expect approx 1200/ unit per month (I am furnishing both units for short term rentals- approx 10K total). In hot market could get 1600/ unit.

Deal or no deal?
would you pay for closing costs on top of all this? (5-10k)


thank you all!

Sounds like the deal has potential. Check the area and surrounding area for legislation on STRs. If you are going in with only one play (as a STR) make certain what the neighboring comps look like. Have you visited the area, have you checked what neighboring comps look like and average occupancy? Also, STR PM can vary widely from location to location. Have you started to source your PM? Looking local or looking to hire larger nationwide outfit? 

Hard question to answer, deal or no deal. Depends on your specific goals. Is this a long-term play? Is this an appreciating market? Other interests, family, vacation spot, etc. Just a few questions to consider. Hope it helps. 

I aim to hold long term. Its not a big city so its not appreciating as fast as say Austin or the rest of Texas but its still Texas! The town is growing and already quite large. Its not a vacation spot or vacation area, I am aiming towards a niche market to be honest... but then again its a rather inexpensive duplex/ newly redone so I think it could really make up for lack of it being a "sexy" deal per se....

Central Texas! No flood zone and not tornado alley. 

I could clear about 1400 after the mortgage but this is before the PM, lawn maintenance, wifi/ utilities & etc. 

It would be approx 1K mortgage. Conservatively I aim for 1200/ unit. I think the duplex is a great deal but it wouldn’t be a home run by any means until well after the recession.

The competition is slim and outdated. In a hot market (1-2 years from now) I could foresee 1600/ unit. 

Would you take the deal? On top of possibly already spending around 20k (appliances & furnishings) would you pay additional 2.5K for closing? 

New to STR so very unsure if this will be a solid deal!

Central texas!

I had someone tell me it won’t cash flow… I don’t have any algorithms for deals that include having to furnish & maintain furnishings so figured I’d ask on this platform!

Thanks, yea I paid for the three days (here in Phoenix via azreia) so I was curious about others’ thoughts.

Are these courses worth it? Deed grabber & land grabber.

@Ryan Beckner don’t know if you’ve heard of Jack Bosch’s land system but if so- what’s your opinion on it? 

Hello all,

Ran across a Jack Bosch sales pitch. Research tells me it’s a system that can work well enough. Before I spend that sort of money on a niche system, I’d like to hear from the successful professionals.

I generally avoided paying for any systems because of the power of the internet these days. Aside from being frugal, I believe you can learn just about anything from good old google.

What systems would you recommend? Aside from multifamily/ fix & flip/ BRRRR.

Thank you all for your time & insight.

Danny

@Tim Winter

- Did you find the event helpful? I can’t convince myself to pay a grand for his “course” but I paid for the three day course since I am a newbie and have lots to learn. Is the three day course enough to start practicing the system or is he just dangling more carrots to squeeze out more money
