I would plug in different Numbers to come up with the NOI.
Underwriters will look at this as if they would be getting it back from foreclosure.
I would allow
5% for vacancies
5% for Management
5% for repairs
Even if you figure that you will do your own management, they will figure that they would have to hire one,and do repairs, and have vacancies.
Good Luck,
Robert
There is no money in this deal assuming a 25% downpayment!!
Here are my numbers (Rounded, yearly):
Purchase Price: 1.3M
Downpayment: 325K
Amount Financed: 975K
Income: 169K
5% Management,5%Vacancy,3% Repairs = 169K * 13% = 22K
Expenses: 49K
Financing at 8.5% for 30 years: $90K
Cash Flow = 169K-22K-49K-90K = 8K
Rate of Return on Cash Invested = 8K/325K = 2.5%
Heck, you can get better return than this.
