Would You Purchase This Property
I’d thinking of purchasing this property, which is located in North Alabama. Here are the details and financials:
- 2 buildings with 4 units in each building (8 units Total)
- Built in 1979
- 4 units rented( $400 + $465 + $400 + $375 =
$1680/mo.)
- 4 units vacant and in the process of being renovated.
Owner expects those to rent for $435/mo
- each bldg is approx 3400 Sq ft
- Asking price is $167,500 X 2 = $335,000
Annual Income:
- Gross Rents $19680
Annual Expenses:
- Management fee $3648(based on 5% vacancy rate)
- Prop Tax $2680
- Insurance $2222
- Utilities $2880
- Lawn Service $2160
- Cable TV $1386
- Garbage $888
Total Expenses $15864
NOI $3816
I do not have an appraisal but the listing agent used comps from sales of similar local properties to determine list price. I plan to put down 10 to 15 percent. I would appreciate your comments/analysis on this property’s numbers. If I can get the other units rented does it make sense to purchase?
Thanks

if your looking for long term financing an insurance company is usually the way to go...getting non-owner financing with a high LTV is hard. Generally, your going to have to come up with the money.
Do you have 401ks? take a loan from your 401k for the downpayment if you need it...just pay it back quickly
well if you can get him to seller finance part or all of the deal , it that would be a start . now,is there any other tenants in the building besides your company ? also we can maybe able to finance at a better rate. send me the package and me and my associates will take a look i will do whatever i can to help you 7.25% - 7.75% . well on your next deal that you are aquiring for a client and the broker is structuing it as no commission split that because the deal is so sweet that he needs no help selling . so in order for you to get paid you must be creative and i am going to tell you an old secret so keep your mouth shut and we will be able to use it for many many years to come . you may even get a pat on the back when you tell your boss (quite possible to give you a raise if he has never heard of doing this trick before . so if your the buyer broker or consultant or friend well anyways do whatever you can when filiing out paperwork to have the deal closed on th2nd day of a new month & have rent credited to the the buyers broker at close of escrow and there you have it if you have strong will of desire than not one thing canstop ya . hope the very best to you and your people .if you have anymore questions please email me anytime and when i get a chance to check the messages i will return your call . you have to remember i am here to spread the knowledge and will power to create a better future for our fellow commercial investors/ around the world . thanks for making my day i love answering questions for people cause i know how hard it is to get info on commercial industry your frinend and commerical consultant chris wilson .

I know that Starbucks owns all of their stores and does not franchise them, so you could contact corporate headquarters for them.
As for the others, I think most franchises have a referral service at the home office so that if you have a good location, they could recommend that location to one of their new franchisees that are looking for a good place.
