Repairs Needed
The estimated repairs are $1,500 for:
- Carpet ($1,500)
All repairs are merely speculative estimates based on what the seller (or agent) has told us at this point. Before buying this house you should have it inspected and get quotes for actual repairs found.
Most We Can Pay For This House Based On NOI
- Investor Interest Rate: about 6.500% (see Interest Rate Estimates)
- 30 Year Amortization Fixed Interest Rate
- Principal and Interest Payment = NOI = $1,745.01
- Max loan for 100% financing with that payment: $276,080 minus closing costs and any repairs
Estimating Value
- Seller claims the value of the property is $450,000.
- Zillow claims the value of the property is $402,000. See Zillow Estimates for more information on why this can be misleadingly high or low.
- Seller is asking $364,900.
- You should analyze the property to determine your offer, but we will use the full asking price for our analysis.
Purchasing The House
Based on getting our full price offer accepted, that would be our purchase price. We will use that in our calculations below.
When buying with traditional financing, I have used just the purchase price (not the estimated repairs in the loan amount) because few loan programs allow you to borrow the purchase price and the repair money. To borrow the purchase price with repair money, you would need to use a hard money loan. So, realize that in my calculations, you still need to pay for repairs.
Nothing Down
- 100% Financing
- 100% financing for investment property is very difficult in our current credit market. There are ways to purchase property with no money down, but you will want to discuss these more creative methods with your lender and the real estate professional we can refer you to when you request information about this deal.
- Hard Money Then Rate and Term Refinance
- We can sometimes buy a house with a hard money loan and then immediately do a rate and term refinance to eliminate the really ugly 20% second mortgage that we describe above on the 100% financing analysis.
- To do this, we need to buy the property well below 80% loan to value.
- When you factor in our offer price of $364,900 (plus $1,500 in estimated repairs) I do not think this property would work for this, but you can learn about this strategy from Collect $8,000 Buying Real Estate Rentals. This particular house with estimated repairs would be at about 81.42% of what the seller estimates value to be.
10% Down
- If we purchase it for $364,900, then a 10% down payment would be $36,490.
- Likely, we would then be financing 80% (that’s $291,920) on a first mortgage and then 10% (that’s $36,490) with a second mortgage with a higher interest rate.
- Principal and interest payments on a $291,920 30 year fixed rate loan at 6.500% are: $1,845 per month
- Principal and interest payments on a $36,490 30 year fixed rate loan at 9.000% are: $294 per month
- That would leave us with a negative cash flow of -$394/month when we subtract it from our Net Operating Income calculation which takes into account a reserve for maintenance and a 4.00% vacancy rate.
- Return on Investment Estimates
- IMPORTANT NOTE: These can change if any assumptions change.
- For putting up $36,490 as a down payment you’d see the following returns from the following benefits:
- Cash Flow
- -$394/month times 12 months = -$4,725 per year
- -$4,725 per year/$36,490 invested = -13% return on investment from estimated Cash Flow
- Depreciation
- $364,900 purchase price with 10% estimated land value leaves $328,410 for the value of the structures that we can depreciate
- $328,410/27.5 years = $11,942 per year
- Assuming a tax rate of about 33%, then a third is the benefit from depreciation
- $3,981 per year/$36,490 invested = 10.91% return on investment from Depreciation
- Principal Paydown
- $291,920 loan pays down about $2,627 in the first year
- $36,490 loan pays down about $328 in the first year
- ($2,627 per year + $328)/$36,490 invested = 8.10% return on investment from Principal Paydown
- Appreciation
- Assuming a 5% appreciation rate. How did we come with that number? See Appreciation Rate Estimates for more info.
- Assuming the property is worth exactly what we paid for it $364,900. If the appraisal comes in lower then we will be forced to go back to the seller since it will affect our ability to get a loan on the property. If it is higher than our numbers will likely be much better.
- $18,245 per year/$36,490 invested = 50.00% return on investment from Appreciation
- Total from Cash Flow, Depreciation, Principal Paydown (first and second mortgages) and Appreciation
- (-$4,725 + $3,981 + $2,627 + $328 + $18,245)/$36,490 = 56.06% return on investment
- Cash Flow
20% Down
- If we purchase it for $364,900, then a 20% down payment would be $72,980.
- We would then be financing the balance of $291,920
- Principal and interest payments on a $291,920 30 year fixed rate loan at 6.500% are: $1,845 per month
- That would leave us with a negative cash flow of -$100 when we subtract it from our Net Operating Income calculation which takes into account a reserve for maintenance and a 4.00% vacancy rate.
- Return on Investment Estimates
- IMPORTANT NOTE: These can change if any assumptions change.
- For putting up $72,980 as a down payment you’d see the following returns from the following benefits:
- Cash Flow
- -$100/month times 12 months = -$1,201 per year
- -$1,201 per year/$72,980 invested = -1.65% return on investment from estimated Cash Flow
- Depreciation
- $364,900 purchase price with 10% estimated land value leaves $328,410 for the value of the structures that we can depreciate
- $328,410/27.5 years = $11,942 per year
- Assuming a tax rate of about 33%, then a third is the benefit from depreciation
- $3,981 per year/$72,980 invested = 5.45% return on investment from Depreciation
- Principal Paydown
- $291,920 loan pays down about $2,627 in the first year
- $2,627 per year/$72,980 invested = 3.60% return on investment from Principal Paydown
- Appreciation
- Assuming a 5% appreciation rate. How did we come with that number? See Appreciation Rate Estimates for more info.
- Assuming the property is worth exactly what we paid for it $364,900. If the appraisal comes in lower then we will be forced to go back to the seller since it will affect our ability to get a loan on the property. If it is higher than our numbers would be much better.
- $18,245 per year/$72,980 invested = 25.00% return on investment from Appreciation
- Total from Cash Flow, Depreciation, Principal Paydown and Appreciation
- (-$1,201 + $3,981 + $2,627 + $18,245)/$72,980 = 32.41% return on investment
- Cash Flow
Rent-To-Own Analysis
- If you purchase the property and instead of renting it, offer the property for sale on a rent-to-own basis, you can further improve your returns.
- Offering flexible financing like a rent-to-own program is an amazing way to eliminate negative cash flow especially when rents are low compared to actual property values like it is in the this analysis.
- Here’s an overview of how you might structure this property:
- Purchase the property for $364,900 (what the seller is asking) at the investor interest rate of 6.500%
- Sell the property for full market price, $450,000 on a rent-to-own.
- Ask the seller to make payments that would resemble what they would pay on a mortgage for their purchase price with an interest rate that would be accurate for their credit situation and not the lower rent amount of $2,800.
- For example, if the interest rate for an investor with good credit is 6.500%, then their interest rate might be 7.490%.
- Your payments, if you could finance 100% of $364,900 (the seller’s asking price) at 6.500%, would be: $2,306.42/month
- Their payments, if they could finance 100% of $450,000 (what it’s worth) at 7.490%, would be: $3,143.38/month
- Since they will be buying the house, they would be expected to cover taxes, insurance and maintenance as well, so you have a positive cash flow of:
- (Their Payment To You) - (Your Loan Payment) = Cash Flow
- ($3,143.38) - ($2,306.42) = $836.97/month
- By structuring your exit strategy in this way, you can essentially eliminate negative cash flow and find a buyer for your properties that will be closing in the next year, two or three.
- You’d be collecting $836.97 per month in cash flow and $85,100 when you actually sell it by utilizing this strategy.
