Hello there Josh-

Not to rain on your parade but I think it would be beneficial to make an architect forum for all of us. (not to mention one of my investors is looking to acquire ones help)

Thanks!

Thanks Biggerpo. Though I can definitely get good financing, I am hoping to focus on "subject to"'s initially so as not to tie up my own credit.

I look forward to sharing my experiences with everyone!

Now this all depends on your current situation and what you can afford to pay right now. Lets see I would need to know what type of property you had in mind (as far as the cost of purchase and rehab) along with monthly payments. Just give the particulars and we will take it from there my friend, thank you for your time and have a wonderful biggerpockets night.

Hello there Ralph-

Love the introduction my friend, too many people now days just come in and just say, "came across this is and I think it is awesome", but you filled in all the blanks.

So you say that you have been purchasing HUD homes since 98, that sounds wonderful. I would like to know if you acquire these homes with HUD's FHA loan programs and if you rehab with government grants.

Property Price: $140,000 (asking price, can negotiate down but for analysis purposes keeping it here)

# of Units: 4

Total Yearly Rent: $25,800

Expenses (assuming 50% rule): $12,900

Down Payment: $14,000

PI: $7,664

Property Management: $1,290 (its about 6 hours away so no way for me to effectively manage it myself)

Cash Flow: positive $2,656 (yearly)

Do you know how many bedrooms each unit has for this fourplex my friend. If so it might be more profitable for you to obtain a HUD program and section 8 the property.

Here in CA you will get: (note rents are a little higher and all most the same in Colorado too)
$1,000 for a 1Bd
$1,300 for a 2Bd
$1,700 for a 3Bd
$2,000 fro a 4Bd

add 15% for a 5Bd (from the rent of a 4Bd)
add 15% for a 6Bd (frrom the rent of a 5Bd)
