Also, with my yearly maintenance/capex budget originally at $3000.00 my agent made a good point saying over a 10 year period do I expect to put $30,000 into the property with many things new.

I used 6% vacancy trying to be slightly conservative as well there.

Could well be 4-5 or lower based on rental statistics

@Evan Polaski

Thank you for the great response.  I adjusted my math, based off your suggestions, to include a higher turnover rate and higher capex. To be fair, in original numbers above I took a slightly more conservative number of 2100/mo rent for the bldg. My new numbers assume 2200/mo rent for the building which equates to 550 per tenant.  PM quotes market rates at 525-550 per unit, however I have scoured the area and don't see anything less than 575. It seems there's not a lot of inventory as far as similar rentals available.  

my new numbers:
Tenant-Finding + utilities ($500 more/yr tenant finding.  $1300/year. went between your suggestion of 1100-1500) still $2000.00 for utilities. = $3300

Added $400/year to maintenance/capex budget = $3400


With rent at $2200 I still get a 

CoC 10.81%

ROI 19.52%


My broker said in this market we're looking for singles and doubles, home runs are far and few between.

Edit: Rent is NOT $800 per unit. Rent per unit is $500-$550 I just save slightly more per year. Trying to be a little more conservative.

Hello,

I am reaching out to the bp community for some help analyzing a deal.  This property is located in Dayton. 

 4 1bd/1ba rooms in a C class neighborhood

I want to get everyone's opinion on how good a deal this is. I would be responsible for water, trash and yard maintenance. Broker and I think the utilities for that would run ~$2000/yr for all units. The bldg is turnkey and had major rehabs done in the past few years. New furnaces, windows etc etc etc.

Address:  15 Ridge Avenue, Dayton OH

IMO, biggest risk is neighborhood.  low quality schools, but since it's a 1 bed / 1ba I don't imagine my tenants will have children.  Tenant screening will be paramount.

Here are the numbers I crunched

Purchase$165,000.00 (2% back toward closing)
RentCurrently $1950.00 but market rates would have the building to $2100-$2200 somewhat easily
Mortgage$555.69
Taxes$233.33
Insurance$100.0
Vacancy (6%)$126.00
Repairs/capex (14%)$250.00
Prop Mg (10%)$197.00
Save for Tenant-Finding, typically 1st mo's rent ($800/ yearly) + Utilites ($2000/ yearly)$2800.00
Income w Mortgage$404.24
IRR (ROI)19.34%
Cap Rate6.98%
COC10.56%
