First Investment SFH

[Stevie Penn]

Looking at a SFH as first time investment [cash deal]

House is located in excellent area with plenty of jobs and hot market for houses

Overview:

House is super clean and requires no repairs

Cost of house is $180,000    

 Rent                 $1565

Yearly Gross:     $18,780

Yearly net:        $14,280 after taxes, insurance, management, added extra expenses to be safe: $14,280

I am thinking about doing delayed financing with this one to get 75% of cash back and using it towards something else.

Properties in the area have been appreciating ridiculously 
Any input would be nice, im eager to learn

Hey guys, thanks for your input, I appreciate it.

I have new accurate numbers now.

$45,000 initial cost  

Income

Rent        $1565 per month

Expenses (per month)

HOA $24

Insurance $66

Taxes       $143.30  

Mortgage  $670

Management (9%): $140.85

Might self manage for start but later on

Vacancy + CapEx: $150.00

The house requires no repairs initially and things like the roof, a/c, etc are new

Total Monthly Expenses comes to $1194.15

$1565 - 1194.15 = $370.85 cash flow per month

$4,450.20/$45,000 = 9.89% CoC

I'm not the best at math, but please share your input. The rent could be higher, I made the numbers very safe and reliable. 

Extra: I'm not sure about your guys area, but houses here are in high demand due to amazon and some other major companies coming. I intend to hold long term if I pull the trigger, but will covid burst this bubble anytime soon?            

Those #'s look a lot better. But, a 45K house that doesn't need repairs and rents for $1,565? I've never seen such a deal in my life. Sure about the rent amount and repair amount? How did you verify these #'s? 

Yes, the numbers are very accurate. We actually found a really good tenant (excellent income and verified renting history) willing to pay $1675. The tenant is long term so I believe this is a great investment.
