32k combined NOI (assuming your figured your NOI properly with out debt service)- 42k in debt= -10k year carry (not prolly figuring in any cap x or vacancy). As I steal a line from the rich dad book, how many deals can you continue to buy if you buy deals that lose money vs ones that cash flow.

    Agreed with Chad Nagel Looks like from what you posted that this place loses money, quite a bit of money actually with the scenario that you presented. Didn't run the numbers further than noticing that but maybe if you put a down payment into this and really dig into the numbers it could have some chance of being a project worth pursuing, not sure though. The assumable loans might be a deal killer on this one just because of the high payments.

    Erica Shaunta Thompson I think others have hit on it but your monthly debt service payments exceed your NOI. I think that’s probably all you need to know.

    That's what I was thinking. The negative cash flow is crazy. I was trying to figure out a way to structure the deal to be able to refinance out and buy the deal at the asking Loan amounts while they are worth the 215,000.

    I was trying to figure out a way to structure the deal so that the payments wouldn't be so bad. The notes are making that quite difficult.

    The notes are very high for such low rental income. I was trying to figure out a way to structure the deals with the asking loan amounts to make the deal a win.

    @Chad Nagel What if I were to take over the note but refinance them in 6 months?

    @Joe Cantanzriti  It loses quite a bit of money with the bigger pockets calculator its rather high.

    @Andrew Johnson Pretty much a bad deal at this point.  I was looking at the value of 215,000 and he only wants 143,00 and 172,000. Meaning I would go in with lots of equity.

    @Erica Shaunta Thompson I wouldn't try too hard.  I would also be curious if they are using "Operating Income" as a their parlance for "Collected Rents".  If that is the case and the advertised rents are $695 then you should have $33K in gross rent potential.  If they only collect $24K then they either have 27% vacancy, many rents are under this $695 advertised rate, or both.  And, again, assuming that Operating Income = Collected Rents then you have 106 operating with expenses of roughly 25% which is a really low.  I'd posit that over the long term it will be hard for you to maintain a 25% expense ratio in scenarios where you're paying some utilities, property management, general maintenance, landscaping, pest control, etc.  It's just tough to do.
