I know this isn't a big real estate group but since I've seen some new interest lately (and I'm excited and don't have anyone to share with!) I thought I'd share my latest rental purchase. It's a 2 bed, 1 bath 850 sq ft SFH. Walking distance from local university. Last rented for $700/mo. Came across it as a FSBO. Looked at it and while it needs some work, it has excellent potential, is priced WAY under market value and is in a great location. I offered him full price with 10% down on the contingency he was willing to owner finance for up to a year while I rehab, rent and eventually refinance to a traditional mortgage. Here's now the numbers break down.
Purchase price: $74,000
Down payment: $7,400
Monthly payment: $443/mo ($66,600 @ 7% on a 30 year amoritization)
Rehab cost: $25k (includes new roof, kitchen reno, moving a few walls including enlarging both bedrooms and creating better flow, deck repairs, tuckpointing and flooring)
After renovation value: $130k
After renovation market rent: $1,200/mo
Benefits of the owner finance I structured are 1) lower down payment (my lender requires 25% for investment properties) which allows me to keep more cash on hand to complete renovations 2) Once rehab is done I will refi with my bank to recoup the cash I spent on renovations while maintaining 25% equity so I'll not have spent anything out of pocket and have a new mortgage just under $100k with a payment under $450/mo.
Looking full picture at my real estate portfolio, this purchase should put me at a valuation juuuust over $1M which if I'm being candid never seemed like a possibility when I started on this real estate investing adventure in 2015.
