HI everyone here! Need some help and advice here, I am not ready to buy right now but I wonder if this is maybe a good deal that I should not let pass.
I would like to hear your opinion here guys, would really appreciated. :)thanks.
Ok, I found this property online, I am trying to figure out if the numbers makes a good deal for this property.
____
it is a Bank Owned. Sold AS IS. located in the Bronx.
Asking price= $180,000
2 units (located in a block with SFH and duplex in ok conditions)
(unit 1- 2 BEd- 1 bath
(2 unit - 3 bed - 1 bath )
FUll basement
Acres: 0.0341 -Square Footage: 1,485
Estimated taxes -$2,800
The property needs repairs guessing $25k- really do not know at this point,
it is vacant, no tenants, I have not visited yet.
At this point I also do not know yet for how much I can rent each unit, I need
to find out too.
Running some CMA in the area other properties have been sold
for $250k or more.
I am suppose to talk to the person who has the listing tomorrow.
Thanks, appreciate any advice :) what you guys think?

Hi to the BP community.
First I want to thanks everyone here for all the great info that is share on this site...Thank you.
My goal is to by my first REI property within 6 months (by march 2014), in the Bronx and i am looking for a SFH or a duplex. I already own a co-op in the Bronx area therefore i am a little bit familiar with buying a property using the traditional way. Right now i am focusing in educating myself and in building a good team of people where we all can learn and growth together.
I am reading now for the second time the ABC of REI by Ken McElroy, it is great book :), highly recommended.
Hope to meet investors that are doing business in the Bronx, to exchange ideas, point of views and collaborate with each other.
