Post: Buying a rental in Philadelphia for airbnb rental good idea?

- Posts 17
- Votes 0
Hello,
So from my research, i see that many airbnb operators in Philadelphia buy a nice townhome in a b class area and market them for airbnb.
The avrg income is 2200 per month or 29.5k per year plus other income.
Townhomes are around 300k to 350k.
I have 100k for this to work out.
Im assuming it's 20% down and 4% on a 350k will be
$70,000
$12,000 closing cost
$5,000 furniture and etc to get it ready
$5,000 reserves
Total $92,000
Am i missing something?

what cash flow per door do you aim for that makes a deal worth it?

im using this blueprint as a guide.
7% vacancy / 8% capex/ 8% repairs/maintenance
i know many things vary but im thinking 150-200 per door would be worth it? am i wrong?
looking to house hack my 1st deal duplex been having trouble with using the right methods to come up with the numbers.

hello,
about to put a 10% down @4% house hack in north Philly, here is the numbers. what do you think? CapEx is low cause all major repairs have been replaced/new over the past 4 years.

hello BP,
i have been researching and reading every book i can for the past few years. i have my finances in order and would like to purchase a property. the goal is to have many rentals like many of you do already.
i live in a expensive state where taxes are the highest and do not want to buy locally here.
i am look at near by areas like Philly where many signs are telling me its growing which i like.
i have 65k to use and trying to find a way where i can reach $200/ per door (8% cocr) or more. I have no debt and already pre approved with all docs needed.
what would be the best move if you were in my shoes? i live at home saving every penny and maxing out my retirement accounts. i strongly want to own property//rental before the end of the year.
i would not mind house hacking than rent it out after moving out (1 yr) to cash flow or would buying a rental in a cheaper market like mid west be better? how can i start and scale?
