@Haleigh Nelson That's a very unique scenario that isn't easily translatable to the analyzer. I would just treat it value add project. I'm a little curious about some of your assumptions: 1) Vacancy at 3% is very low (5%-8% is more common), 2) 5% income and 0% expense growth aren't realistic - more common is to have the difference between your income and expense growth around 1%-2%, 3) Paying P&I during rehab isn't common - normally this is setup as an interest only period until the property is stabilized and then do a DSCR loan, 4) A proforma cap rate of 9.21% is very high for this type of property (this more of a cap rate for a Section 8 property). I'm estimating a cap rate of 7.0%-8.0%, and 5) (this isn't you, more the model itself) The future property value shouldn't be based an annual increase (3% in your version), but rather on an expected cap rate at exit. I've attached an image of my proforma based on your report and using a different property in the market.


Thank you so much! I was going off of some historic rent increase / property appreciation / vacancy data in the area and I thought it seemed high. Also I need to familiarize myself more with those loan options. 

After looking at these adjustments, what is your opinion on these numbers? 

Thank you again!

Hi all! I'm evaluating a potential BRRRR property that I would likely purchase with 5% down and owner-occupy for however long necessary to complete repairs, etc.

I would certainly get more accurate estimates on the repairs before closing, but I already know the roof needs to be replaced as well as some potential foundation repair due to moisture issues. 

My goal would be to purchase the property, make cosmetic upgrades to the lower unit (3BR/1BA) and get that rented out ASAP so I can get some income going while I finish up larger projects like the roof and upgrading the upper unit. 

Open to any and all feedback! Thank you!

Hi @Haleigh Nelson, welcome to the BP Forum! First thing, a purchase cap rate of nearly 10% on a $300k home that doesn't need much rehab seems VERY high. If this is a duplex and you'll only be renting out 1 side, I suspect your rent is only going to be $1,700, not $3,400, is that correct? There are several other items I have to comment on, but the rent/cap rate is the biggest issue, I believe.

Thank you! Great question - goal is to eventually rent out both units to total $3400/mo - it would be closer to $2000/mo for the one unit until repairs are done and my lender is ok with it no longer being my primary residence. 

I wasn’t sure how to reflect that with this calculator.

Beginner investor looking to take the leap on our first property - about $30k in cash to put to work. Raleigh/Cary is what I know well, but the competition is steep. What are some other emerging markets maybe with a bit lower to cost to entry for a BRRRR strategy?
