Why do you think this will do well when you make it look nice on the open market and disclose it's in a flood zone and flooded in the past year?

Here are the key details:Property Type: 5-unit mixed-use building (2 retail, 3 residential)Asking Price: $5,200,000Building Size: 4,526 SFLot Size: 1,573 SFAir Rights: 4,939 SF availableLocation: Prime area, corner lot, close to public transportation and major attractionsFinancials:Total Annual Income: ~$359,305Net Operating Income (NOI): ~$278,686Existing Debt: $4.375M @ 4.28% (assumable, maturing 1/2031)Rent Roll:Retail tenants with leases extending through 2024Residential units are all 3-bed/2-bath, free-market, with luxury finishesI’m trying to figure out how to best analyze this deal and determine if it’s worth pursuing.

It is hard to really keep up with those kinds of trends unless I budget 10k a year in updating the property which I am not going to do.I participate in our local council/mayor meetings.

All these properties were purchased for under 100k (not possible now, we got lucky with the downswing of the market at that time).

Your financial background is a huge asset, and it’s great that you’re starting locally in Milwaukee while keeping an eye on future expansion.If you’re looking to connect with like-minded investors, the Rental Property Association of Wisconsin is a fantastic resource for networking with rental portfolio owners, accessing legal resources, and finding contractors. https://www.aasew.org/For mentors, funding sources, and flippers, the Milwaukee REIA is another great group to explore. https://www.milwaukeereia.com/I’m a member of both and find unique value in each—maybe we’ll cross paths at a future meeting!

It was an off-market deal.

I suspect you are in a much more affluent market than I am.

I reach out just to help as I'm a local agent/investor here in the area; and my focus is primarily on investment properties with my clients.

Mobile homes can be great flips if you understand the demand in your market.. but a couple of things jump out.

What we found was only one other person contracted under $200 per square foot for clients and they also built within the city of columbus. the numbers have a much higher premium the closer you get to downtown. if you can't get the numbers to work my recommendation would be to get closer to downtown. we do build to rent development and single family home development and every line item is broken out. on the triples we have to build exterior staircases etc there are some things you can't really understand unless you build a lot. hope that helps but no one is going to build you for 110 a square foot. the lowest cost homes in our market at cost without a profit barely dip into 140 a square and we are in one of the cheapest construction markets and states in the country.
