that we’ve learned in our 24 years, managing almost 700 doors across the Metro Detroit area, including almost 100 S8 leases:Class A Properties:Cashflow vs Appreciation: Typically, 3-5 years for positive cashflow, but you get highest relative rent & value appreciation.Vacancy Est: Historically 10%, 5% the more recent norm.Tenant Pool: Majority will have FICO scores of 680+ (roughly 5% probability of default), zero evictions in last 7 years.Class B Properties:Cashflow vs Appreciation: Typically, decent amount of relative rent & value appreciation.Vacancy Est: Historically 10%, 5% should be applied only if proper research done to support.Tenant Pool: Majority will have FICO scores of 620-680 (around 10% probability of default), some blemishes, but should have no evictions in last 5 yearsClass C Properties:Cashflow vs Appreciation: Typically, high cashflow and at the lower end of relative rent & value appreciation.

Exceptions include delays caused by factors outside the Subcontractor’s control (e.g., weather, material delays).5.

Quote from @William Taylor: Quote from @Addy Chupa: Hi William,I ran some numbers using our tool, and I’ve included my thoughts below, along with two scenarios: one based on your exact assumptions and another with adjusted figures that I believe could make the deal work better.Observations on Your Numbers Utilities: Based on your calculations, it seems you’ve assumed the tenants will cover all utilities.

This is a net job less including job displacement.

I’ve got a great team including contractors, real estate agents, and lenders.

Start by deepening your understanding of CRE fundamentals, including net operating income (NOI), cap rates, and lease structures like triple net (NNN).

I’d also recommend getting a few quotes, including at least one from a mortgage broker.  

Things to consider when buying a new build are appliances, fans, blinds, and back yard landscaping; sometimes we can get appliances included, it just depends on the situation.

I've included an example below to help illustrate this.So different lenders have different rates (which do vary even for DSCR loans) but these are factors they all consider.See example below:DSCR < 1Principal + Interest = $1,700Taxes = $350, Insurance = $100, Association Dues = $50Total PITIA = $2200Rent = $2000DSCR = Rent/PITIA = 2000/2200 = 0.91Since the DSCR is 0.91, we know the expenses are greater than the income of the property.DSCR >1Principal + Interest = $1,500Taxes = $250, Insurance = $100, Association Dues = $25Total PITIA = $1875 Rent = $2300DSCR = Rent/PITIA = 2300/1875 = 1.23If a purchase, you also generally need reserves / savings to show you have 3-6 month payments of PITIA (principal / interest (mortgage payment), property taxes and insurance and HOA (if applicable).

How much do they charge and what's included?
