Additionally, high-income earners with modified adjusted gross income (MAGI) over $250,000 (married filing jointly) may be subject to the 3.8% Net Investment Income Tax (NIIT).For 2025, bonus depreciation is at 40%, so consider leveraging it for eligible property assets like appliances or fixtures to accelerate deductions.

Interest rates or property taxes spike, squeezing your cash flow?

Here are the key numbers:Potential purchase price: Mid-$400k rangeAppraised value: Estimated at ~$500kRehabbed comparable properties (comps): ~$580-600kMonthly PITI (with 5% down, including mortgage insurance): ~$3400First-year PITI (with 2-1 buydown): ~$2900Monthly income (after taxes): ~4-5kLiving expenses (utilities, groceries, etc.): ~$1600Savings available: ~15-20% of the purchase priceCash to close: ~$34kRehab estimate: ~$34kRemaining reserves: ~$20-25kTo fully fund the rehab, I’d need to come up with an additional ~$15k in the short term, which I anticipate paying back quickly once the rental portion is generating income.

A lot of lenders used to apply 35% for expenses, but in the last several years, the numbers for supplies, labor, utilities, taxes, etc… have increased significantly.Also take into account the age, occupancy and how has the property been maintained, this will affect the expenses too

Quote from @Jeff Sanders: Personally coming from an agent/investor in CA, I always get a quote from a broker of mine and make sure I am knowledgeable with the fees/costs.

My duplex - built 1989, 2,060 sf, 2 bed/bath, 1 year old roof, value if I subdivide (county already approved) and sell each separately $150k each ($300k total)Investor duplex - built 1995, 2,300 sf, 2 bed/bath, 5 year old roof, value around $310kThe investors initial request was for an equal trade and they would pay realtor fees, which I replied wouldn't be equal due to buying/selling costs (recording fees, title insurance, closing fee, survey, inspections, loan fees, 1031 fees, accountant fees, repairs), taxes would increase due to new sale price, I'd trade a 3.75% mortgage for a higher one, and I'm on the 10th year of a 30 year loan so resetting that to a new loan would restart amortization and pay more towards interest.

Broker fee on that loan size is usually 2.5-3 points.
