Charles A. It’s all 3rd grade Math!
25 July 2018 | 9 replies
We anticipate about $150k in repairs when All said and done.Immediate repairs/interior rehab approximate about a 3rd of that total.Roof replacement accounts for the rest.First thing that jumps out from the spreadsheet is no PM cost.We are buying out of state,so will slap on the 8% PM fees.Because we already own a similar building in town,we know the water and sewer bill is at least 2x what it should be.So updating plumbing fixtures to reduce water utility portion is a major value play.Rents are also at least $100 under market.Financing is agency debt.6.5% interest3 year term,30 year amortization.There’s a lot of moving parts in a value play.That’s why I wanted your comments and questions first and i can respond as we go.

Sean Monahan Does anyone else have input on Loftium as a start up?
26 February 2020 | 14 replies
@Sean Monahan You can still inspect your properties as normal - you'll just give your standard notice and communicate that to Airbnb guests.Loftium requires long-term tenants to hold renters insurance, and Airbnb provides $1M of damage protection and a separate $1M primary liability insurance for every booking.Most repairs don't get in the way of Airbnb hosting - i.e. if the stove is out, that can be communicated to guests - and as long as repairs are made on a timely basis, there's no penalty.We sign a standard 1-year lease for the first year, and can sign a longer lease after that if both sides are happy with the process.Feel free to check out my profile and the Loftium company profile on BiggerPockets for our website with more info.
