Just spoke to them today.   Intriging idea because the part about flipping I absolutely hate is real estate agents, and retail buyers and the waiting game.

These guys will buy them hands down.    I love it.


I think I'm going to do one deal and see how it goes.

@Jessica Dean - That is awesome.    I guess I always assume people are BRRRRing.    If that is the case and that property is cashflowing then it is time to go get another!   lol.   Be aware if you are financing these properties with Fannie/Freddie loans you might run into some debt-to-income issues by scaling too quickly.

Let me know if there is anything I can do to help.

Cheers!

Congrats on your purchase Jessica!      Could you PM me the address who you are buying it from etc.?     

I would definitely hold off on buying the second until you have this one stablized and cashflowing.     Once you figure out all of your systems and your "team" on the ground ... then you can start tackling multiple at once.

Cheers!

To each their own. 

I have been wildly successful using my formula above which has yield a large robust portfolio that is cash flowing more than $7000 /mo with little to none of my own money.   

I am most focused on percentages. Specifically %ROI. I think people are wasting their money if they are not considering the % return on their investment and are instead just focusing on the $$$$$.

@James B. - so a few things on how I underwrite my deals.

#1 - The 1% rule.   Doesn't meet it at all.   $995/mo rent I wouldn't purchase for anything more than $99,500

#2 - 12 cap. I don't buy anything that isn't a 12 cap. $995 * 12 * .6 = $7164/year NOI. 12 cap would be $59,700 purchase price so the 12 cap is a "no-go" as well.

#3 - "All-in" for 75% of ARV. From what I can tell on the numbers you gave me you would be "all-in" at $134,800. That is 75% of an ARV around $180K. You didn't mention what the ARV would look like. But I'd make sure it would appraise for at least $180K once all is said and done. If not? I'd walk.

#4 - Cashflow at least $200/mo+ with debt service. I have the monthly NOI at around $591/mo. So whatever debt service you would end up with after a cash-out refi ... I would make sure you aren't paying Principal & Interest more than $391/mo. IF you end up being able to cash out your "all-in" at $134,800 ... then the payment principal and interest would be $730.26. So it would not cashflow anywhere near $200/mo.

Overall ... I'd say I'm a big "NO" on this deal.

Those are my thoughts.

Paul
