With your proforma, something I recommend adding is your cash-on-cash return, including principal paydown. People often forget that the principal paydown, which reduces the cash-on-cash return, is an increase to their value.

I should have done a case study, IT WAS CRAZY to say the least ... Ive taken a year off of Real Estate after that Rehab (didnt even watch TV about it!) ... too many lessons learned & bruises... but Im now back into the Game.  First currently buying a turnkey....then in 2020, I prefer to do a Rehab.

Can you give a quick rundown about the rehab and what went wrong? Was an interesting thread to read!

Too many crazy things, but still have the property and just raised rents $100 per side. Even with all the headaches, I think it will do fine and it was a great learning lesson

Victor, I will also post a Case study, as I did the Memphis Property Tour in May 2018 and ended up putting a purchase agreement down for a 3/2 in Memphis as a renovated unit to be completed this Sep.  It was delayed because the tenant would not leave in June.

Some things I found grossly wrong with the ProForma:

  • As you know they require a annual yearly inspection fee for $75.00 which should be listed
  • The collect 50% rent of one month to place a tenant which really should be built into the Proforma, because its significant and predictable.  Even if you just renew there is a fee that is known and predictable.
  • They also advertise 4% vacancy in the Proforma, but the PM handbook states the average vacancy is 45 days across their portfolio which is 12%.  That is quite a difference.

Im looking forward to closing on my M.I.P. property, but the proforma's I think are way under estimated.  Even my taxes were estimated wrong and closing costs were double what they quoted, using their recommended lender, etc.
They also do

4205 Cedartree Drive is almost mine!

Jan 11:

  • Closing - signed the final Closing Documents with the notary
  • Cash to Close - wired the balance of the funds to title company today.

Looking for to finalizing and obtaining a renter with the investment managed by M.I.P.

Peter,

yes I never use their Proforma, I build my own BUT you make great points on annual inspection & lease up/renewal cost.

     Kevin, so did you buy?

    I would do it again and I am currently closing (Dec 12) on another turnkey in Memphis.

    Yes, if the average stay is 12 months and the average vacancy duration is 45 days, then you would enter 12% vacancy into your Proforma.

    But many good turnkey operators have a 36-month average stay. In that case, the you would enter 4.1% vacancy into your Proforma.

    Vacancy formula:  
    45-day average vacancy duration / 365 days in a year / 3-year average stay = 4.1% vacanc

    Great commentary. 

    My tenant did renew so im hoping & looking forward to year 3 in a few months :)

    Kevin, after a year, things are going well enough. Still have a renter and cash coming in.
