$47,158 profit on 1102 E Terrell Ave, Fort Worth, TX
I have been researching properties for potential fix and flips and I came across this property...and I wanted to get some thoughts.
This property is distressed and the price is listed at $55,000 for 3 beds and 2 baths and 1,746 sq ft ($32/sq ft). This property is only a few doors down, and is selling for $158,457, has 3 beds and 2 baths, and 1,724 sq ft ($91.91/sq ft).
If the property was rehabbed and the price per square foot was the same as the reference house, it would be worth $160,479 (1,724 * $91.91).
If it cost $30,000 to fix the house, that would put the all-in cost at $85,000, and if the 70% rule is applied, then the max list price is $112,335.3 ($160,479 * .70)... which is higher than the all-in cost.
Factoring in all other expenses like taxes, loan interest, fees, etc...the final cost would be roughly $113,321.
So, in the end, sells for roughly $160,479, money in was $113,321, which is about $47,158 profit/41.6% return.
Does this make sense? Are the rehab estimates in the ballpark? Are any of the calculations off? Other thoughts?
