Would you do this Sub2 deal?

Question

This is a 3 bedroom 2 bath house 15 minutes from my house and in a C+ neighborhood. It's currently rented for $925 and I'd keep them in place. The financing is $59,000 for 20 years, the escrowed payments are $660, that includes PITI. The house was built in 1967, so it's an infant here in Pittsburgh and it looks it.

It's being wholesaled and that's who I worked this deal out with, the wholesaler, her good friend is the owner. She wants $7,000 in walking money for herself and the owner to split.

What do you all think? I think it's a great deal. I'd have the $7,000 paid back to myself in 4-5 years and then it's basically a free house. IDK, thinking I could refi too, in 3-5 years.

$7,000 down

Take over the $59,000 loan with an escrowed payment of $660 per month.

Rent is $925

Need a little more information but it seems on the expensive side.

Yearly taxes

Condition of house (age of roof, windows, HVAC), hopefully these are all newer since house was built in 1967.

3 or 2 bedroom, integral garage or street parking, etc?

If you want to private message me the address I can let you know more speficifially what I think.

Good point, or maybe just buy it, and sell it close to retail, but check the selling expenses. You might make as much in a sell in 6 months, as you would in 3-4 years. Move that profit to the asset column for the next deal. That cash flow seems pretty tight for such a large structure.

although I never did sub too without at least 30% equity and I was buying 200 to 400k props.. if they are low value assets ie under 100k I would want 40% back of market.

Your rent seems low and a good property manager should be able to raise the rent value to compensate the cost of having a property manager and also lower your risk of having bad tenants.

Overall, look at the entire deal and cost in to work your numbers. I think numbers look solid.

I always assume 5% capex, 5% maintenance and 5% for vacancies. I'd imagine this is way lower maintenance than my other 2 duplex in the area that are 90 and 120 years old.
