Hey BP Columbus!

We are hoping to gain insight on our first potential MFP deal. 

Our landlord has indicated that he is looking to list the duplex we have been renting for 2 years +. 

The MFP is a 1,872 sq ft 2 unit, 3 bed-2 bath on a 4,800 sq ft lot, built in 1910. Value is estimated between 260k-280k. Current rents are $1400. Clintonville neighborhood, red hot market right now. 

For this deal, we would want to live in our current unit and rent out the other (1 bed, 1 bath)

The good: New AC, water tanks, windows. 

The bad: Needs updated baths, kitchens, refinished floors, paint, deck and landscaping at a minimum, basement is gross. 

Also, the upstairs 1 bed/bath unit is occupied by a long-term tenant who is paying well below market rents. 

Because this is our first deal, we want to line up home/HVAC inspections, and also have a contractor come through to help put together a reno estimate. This will help us determine the current value, the reno costs and the ARV. 

Financing options would include an FHA, a 203K (if it qualifies), or potentially seller financing.

Here are some preliminary numbers I ran: 260K FHA no repairs and current rents on left, 300K 203K, reno and higher rents on right:

% Down Payment 5.00% 5.00%
Down Payment $13,000 $15,000
Remainder of closing costs $3,000.00 $3,000.00
Total Due at Signing $16,000 $18,000
          
Mortgage Rate 4.60% 4.60%
Length of Mortgage in years 30 30
Monthly Mortgage payment $1,266.00 $1,461.00
Taxes $386.00 $445.00
Sewer and Water $50.00 $50.00
Trash $50.00 $50.00
Heat/Utilities $ - $ -
PMI $ 180.00 $ 208.00
Cap Ex and Ops $200.00 $200.00
Insurance $65.00 $75.00
Mgmt Fee $165.00 $165.00
Vacancy $132.00 $132.00
Total Expenses $2,494.00 $2,786.00
   
Unit 1 $500.00 $700.00
Unit 2 $900.00 $1,100.00
   
Total Revenue $1,400.00 $1,800.00
   
Cashflow/month ($1,094.00) ($986.00)
Cashflow/year ($13,128.00) ($11,832.00)
Cash on Cash Return -8.42% -6.57%

I have not talked with the seller in detail yet, as I want to see if this is worth a deeper dive first. 

From what I can see, this would not come close to cashflowing until the mortgage is paid down. 

Please let us know if you are able to share any thoughts or ideas. 

Thanks!

@Duece Slade

Also new to REI, looking for the first deal in Columbus. I've also been doing homework, viewing properties and analysis.

We have a hot sellers market so it helps to have a team in place. 

Always looking to network, let me know of you'd like to talk!

@Nathan Turner

Nathan, as a first time investor in Columbus I second that!

Trying to stay on budget and generate cash flow is definitely a challenge. 

Justin, basically in the same situation where the market is hot, homes are going above asking, cash with no contingency. 

That just means we need to work harder to find value, especially when we are trying to take advantage of FHA/203k.

Hope to hear more updates!

Hey BP community!

I've been following the Podcast for some time and have decided to jump into Columbus market for my first deal. 

The last year has been spent getting the financial house in order, staying debt-free and building capital. 

Looking at a mule-family property/house hack to start, and go from there. 

Interested in eventully building a portfolio of multi-family retnals in addition to my full-time job. 

Would love to hear any feedback on how to get started in regards to networking and learning from the ground up. 

Thanks!
