You need to budget the rehab project for worst case scenario and it still needs to work with that rehab cost or you risk going over budget.

Hey BPso im a canadian resident and i own a property in SWFL in cape coral worth about 200k, it is fully paid off so no liens or mortgage or anything.Im looking to refinance it to pull out my cash and move to another project and just rent this out, I called the bank of america and they told me they could give me 50k or something line of credit with 19% interest secure with my house but thats obviously not what i want at all.

I asked around about the architect and found he was telling the truth about doing a lot of business in the city and in fact has been hired by the city for projects on their behalf. 

I'm expecting a short term drop in prices at the beginning of 2018..Also, the $40 Billion housing project will definitely have pressure on prices

Is there any chance to receive a financial backing to move ahead with this project? 

I'm not sure I get it...it seems that there are very few things we can do that actually add value to a fix up project.

If I had done so with a project last summer, I could have saved myself a lot of grief.

Looking at the numbers CAPEX and repairs add a huge amount to the monthly expenses.For instance, this third deal:Monthly Income: $1,100Monthly Expenses $1,134.14Monthly Cashflow: -$34.14Pro Forma Cap: 5.22%NOI: $5,215Total Cash Needed: $11,050Cash on Cash ROI: -3.71%Purchase Cap Rate: $5.73Sale Price: $91,000Closing Costs: $2,500Renovation Costs: $4,550 (5%)TOTAL PROJECT COSTS: $98,050Down Payment: $4,550 (5%)Loan Amount: $87,314.5Loan Points: $864.5 (1%)Amortized: 30 yearsInterest Rate: 5%P&I: 468.72Total Cash Needed: $11,050Property Taxes: $2,184/yr2% Rule: 1.13%Initial Equity: $12,685.50Gross Rent Multiplier: 6.89Debt Coverage Ratio: 0.93Expense Increase: 4%/yrIncome Increase: 5%/yrProperty Value Increase: 4%/yrCash on Cash ROI: YR1 (-3.71%) YR2 (-0.63%) YR5 (2.64%) YR10 (9.76%) YR15 (31.56%)Annualized Total Return: YR1 (2.48%) YR2 (22.27%) YR5 (26.37%) YR10 (26.47%) YR15 (22.20%)Total Profit if sold: YR1 ($274) YR2 ($5,469) YR5 ($11,251) YR10 ($24,701) YR15 ($70,982)Expenses:HOA: $82Insurance: $66Taxes: $182MTG: $468.72 (@5%)TOTAL: $798.72Vacancy: $110 (10%)CAPEX: $190/mo (~2.5%)Repairs & Maint: $380/mo (5%)TOTAL EXPENSES: $1,478.72These expenses are different than the $1,134.14 mentioned early on.

Large project.

I have experience working on a wide range of residential projects, from small kitchen remodels to custom homes, everything from $50 per sq ft to over $1000 per sq ft.
