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 = $1,610.85
- Max loan for 100% financing with that payment: $254,854 minus closing costs and any repairs
Estimating Value
- Seller claims the value of the property is $325,000.
- Seller is asking $162,500.
- 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.
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.
- If we really can buy the house for $162,500 and it does appraise for at least $325,000, then we are at 50.00% of value.
10% Down
- If we purchase it for $162,500, then a 10% down payment would be $16,250.
- Likely, we would then be financing 80% (that's $130,000) on a first mortgage and then 10% (that's $16,250) with a second mortgage with a higher interest rate.
- Principal and interest payments on a $130,000 30 year fixed rate loan at 6.500% are: $822 per month
- Principal and interest payments on a $16,250 30 year fixed rate loan at 9.000% are: $131 per month
- That would leave us with a positive cash flow of $658/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 $16,250 as a down payment you'd see the following returns from the following benefits:
- Cash Flow
- $658/month times 12 months = $7,901 per year
- $7,901 per year/$16,250 invested = 49% return on investment from estimated Cash Flow
- Depreciation
- $162,500 purchase price with 10% estimated land value leaves $146,250 for the value of the structures that we can depreciate
- $146,250/27.5 years = $5,318 per year
- Assuming a tax rate of about 33%, then a third is the benefit from depreciation
- $1,773 per year/$16,250 invested = 10.91% return on investment from Depreciation
- Principal Paydown
- $130,000 loan pays down about $1,170 in the first year
- $16,250 loan pays down about $146 in the first year
- ($1,170 per year + $146)/$16,250 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 $162,500. 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.
- $8,125 per year/$16,250 invested = 50.00% return on investment from Appreciation
- Total from Cash Flow, Depreciation, Principal Paydown (first and second mortgages) and Appreciation
- ($7,901 + $1,773 + $1,170 + $146 + $8,125)/$16,250 = 117.63% return on investment
20% Down
- If we purchase it for $162,500, then a 20% down payment would be $32,500.
- We would then be financing the balance of $130,000
- Principal and interest payments on a $130,000 30 year fixed rate loan at 6.500% are: $822 per month
- That would leave us with a positive cash flow of $789 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 $32,500 as a down payment you'd see the following returns from the following benefits:
- Cash Flow
- $789/month times 12 months = $9,470 per year
- $9,470 per year/$32,500 invested = 29.14% return on investment from estimated Cash Flow
- Depreciation
- $162,500 purchase price with 10% estimated land value leaves $146,250 for the value of the structures that we can depreciate
- $146,250/27.5 years = $5,318 per year
- Assuming a tax rate of about 33%, then a third is the benefit from depreciation
- $1,773 per year/$32,500 invested = 5.45% return on investment from Depreciation
- Principal Paydown
- $130,000 loan pays down about $1,170 in the first year
- $1,170 per year/$32,500 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 $162,500. 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.
- $8,125 per year/$32,500 invested = 25.00% return on investment from Appreciation
- Total from Cash Flow, Depreciation, Principal Paydown and Appreciation
- ($9,470 + $1,773 + $1,170 + $8,125)/$32,500 = 63.19% return on investment
