You're talking about buying an asset that generates $24k gross for $600k. $24k gross, and massive deferred maintenance. That deal can't even be financed, (70% , 30 year loan at 7% would be negative $700/month) so you'll have to pay the $600k purchase price in cash or get a hard money loan at ~12-15%. Then the plan is to plow $150k cash into the deal to get the rents up to $7,500/month.
The opex after renovation are going to run 40% of gross, so $3,000/mo. Thats means you'll make a 7 cap, not a 9 cap.
With the other $4500 you pay $3500 to debt service and make $1,000 profit. that's $12,000 profit on a post-refi investment of $225,000, for a 5% COCR before adding back holding costs and opportunity cost in a ~5% risk free rate environment. Oh and that's also not taking the~ $37,500 risk free rate opportunity cost into account during the 12+ month renovation phase of this project, nor the likely several thousand per month in holding costs that you'll pay out.
So to sum it all up, you're taking massive uncompensated project risk, assuming your $150k budget is even correct, to buy an asset that offers the exact same return as the current risk free rate. Doesn't smell too good to me.
Maybe there's some large upside that I'm missing?
Post ARV will be 900k-1m.
My "hard money" loan would be my current 850k credit line at 9% which I'd refinance after renovation to a 30 year fixed at 7%. I have enough to cover purchase + renovation until fully rented.
I've boiled down the numbers to a 600k purchase + 120k renovation cost. The owner is kicking everyone out, so I'm pretty much buying a shell and renovating immediately.
Currently, I'm working on a 1031 exchange of a 550k single house and it makes way more sense than my credit line plan. (Seller hasn't replied me, as they're out of state).
Credit line+ refinance will be my back up plan to aquire property.
Opex would be ~ 2k a month. (property taxes here are almost non-existent at a .03%).
Mortgage will be ~3.5k a month at 30 years.
All units rented ideally would be $7.864k but I put $7.5k for more of a downside cushion.
I'd be able to take a majority of my money back out and have a cashflowing asset.
I don't love it with all these hoops I'd have to jump through for a measily ROI, but I've been searching for a multifamily in this area for the past 7 years.
On a side note, spex, I'm so glad I found this thread back in 2008 while I was in college struggling. Learning from this and doing my first deal in 2011. Change the course of my life completely.
Now I'm talking to you about 600k buildings. Thank you from the bottom of my heart my dood.
