Yes you are right, I plan on setting aside 5% Vacancy and 5% Repairs and maintenance every month for that. Nothing aside for CapEx as we plan to flip the building in a 5-year holding period.

Hi Everyone,
I am looking to do my first commercial deal. I currently own residential multifamily and I want to get into commercial due to the scale you can get and Control Value.
In order for my strategy to work though, I need to be able to secure the correct first deal: Value add 5-Unit under $500k
The goal would be to force appreciation, elevate cap rate, and flip the building to another investor. Profit, 1031 exchange into a larger deal.
The reason for this price is I am shopping on what I can put down for a down-payment WITH a partner.
With that being said, here's the deal:
Purchase Price: $475,000
Cap Rate: 8.3%
Unit Mix
2/1- $900
1/1- $900
1/1- $875
1/1- $850
1/1- $800
Total: $4325/M $51,900/Y
----------------------------------
Maintenance
Insurance: $184.39/M
Electric: $18
Water: $50
Garbage: $160
Taxes: $464.39
Common Areas: $150
Total: $1,026.64/M $12,319.68/Y
Total Units: 5
Total Sq Ft. : 3,000

I am looking to purchase a commercial property with a few partners, but I would like to discuss setting up the entities correctly with a local Attorney as soon as possible. Just asking around to see who knows a good one.
Thanks!

Hi Everyone!
I am a current multifamily investor doing it the old school way. (ie. Saving income for a downpayment)
Now I think ive come across a nice 2% deal that i'd like to take a look at from a local wholesaler. It's not commercial as its a 4 plex, but still very promising.
The question I have is typically this is an all cash purchase. If I use a private investor to purchase the deal. How would I be able to pay him back the full amount + interest?
Banks are doing 75% LTV around here.
Curious...

The only insurance quote I got was the one included from the lender. I am curious as to what that would come out to..
Even if I raise those prices I am close to $800 a month cashflow. What do you think @Roman M.
For $200 a unit it isn't as good as some other rentals I have seen, but this one has less headaches due to it being a newer build.
