Hey everyone,

Background- My partner and I opened an LLC about 2.5 years ago (after we bought our first house), and we always looked for new deals. Four months ago we bought our second house, and now we are looking for our first multifamily deal. We are thinking of buying it as our primary house so the Down Payment will be around 50K. This house is in South Carolina.

This is the description:

"Welcome to the perfect investment opportunity! This exceptional real estate listing offers four charming 2-bedroom, 1.5-bath units, presenting an incredible chance to expand your portfolio. Three of these units have undergone extensive remodeling, receiving fresh paint, upgraded appliances, new flooring, efficient HVAC systems, and brand new water heaters.

Situated in a highly desirable location, this property offers convenience at its finest. Residents will relish being within close proximity to an array of amenities, including shopping centers, medical facilities, schools, restaurants, and much more.

The rents are:
The first unit- $885.00
The second unit- $935.00
The third unit- $950.00
The fourth unit- $995.00
Total- $3,765.00

Asking price- 440K.

More details we have and added:
Tax $375.00
Insurance $250.00
Landscape $120
Vacancy + Repairs- $240 (our assumption)
Property management(9% although we currently managing our property)- $340 (our assumption)
This deal was already in a contingent status and the buyer asked to talk with the tenants, the seller refused so the buyer quit.
My partner lives nearby this neighborhood and we know it's a pretty good place.

Our questions are:

1. Do you think this deal is worth it with this small cashflow it has?

2. What would be your first offer?

3. Could you please share what would you check more about this deal?

This is my first post here, feel free to give me feedback, thank you. :)

Best Regards,
