4-Plex: Contract Sent

I faxed over the contract and a copy of the EMD check to the agent for the 4-plex this morning. I also FedEx'd the signed originals of all the paperwork she sent, so it looks like the deal is bona fide now. My wife said after the fact that she wanted to be included on the contract (i.e., be on the deed), so I'll need to have a contract addendum (or whatever the agent wants) sent.

Here are the numbers for the deal:
                            "A"        "B"        "C"
Income
Gross Potential Rent: $ 1,250 $ 1,250 $ 1,250
Vacancy Loss: $ 104- $ 0
Gross Potential Income: $ 1,146 $ 1,250

Operating Expenses
Property Management $ 200- $ 200-
Maintenance $ 100- $ 0
Electric $ 0 $ 0
Water $ 0 $ 0
Gas $ 0 $ 0
Insurance $ 54- $ 0
Property Taxes $ 35- $ 0
Other Reserves $ 75- $ 0
Gross Operating Expenses $ 465- $ 200-

Net Operating Income $ 681 $ 1,050 $ 625

Loan #1 Payment: $ 179- $ 179- $ 179-
Loan #2 Payment: $ 73- $ 73- $ 73-
Total Debt Service: $ 252- $ 252- $ 252-

Monthly Net Profit: $ 430 $ 798 $ 373
Column "A" is the hard numbers financial statement, which has realistic values for each income and expense for the property. Column "B" is what the financial statement would realistically look like on a given month without averaging out extraneous expenses. Column "C" is using the "50% rule" (that is, take 50% of the gross rents and use that as the NOI). So the worst case scenario, Column "C", has my average net monthly profit at $373/mo., which is one of the reasons I've been pursuing this deal.

Hey Steve,

Long time no talk!

So, what kind of loan are you getting? The monthly sure seems low.

Hi Brian,

Hope things are going well for you and your family.

I'm still considering both options I mentioned in the previous blog entry:

10/1 @ 7.49%
5/5 @ 6.99%

My calculations were based on a 30yr loan with a rate of 7.5%. It's really a crap-shoot at this time how interest rates will be in 5 years, so I may just opt for the 10/1. It's only something like a $9/mo or so difference, so it won't break me by going with the 10/1.
