You mention that it has low occupancy, how low? The numbers look decent. The taxes look low compared to what we pay around here. A 50 unit here that I looked at awhile back for $1.5 mil had taxes of $33,000 a year. Just make sure you figure in the CURRENT vacancy in your price. It is a problem that you will have to fix and they should not profit from that. Good luck and hopefully someone else with more experience than me will chime in.

I found a deal on a 200 unit apartment complex with out of town owners. The property is currently running a very low occupancy rate which is fluctuating monthly. The details of the deals as I know so far are as follows:

Sales price 3.8M
Rehab 32 units 200T
Total 4M

Financials:
Income:
Annual rents 1170000
15% Vacancy rate 175000 (market is less than 10%)
Eff. Gross Inc 994500

Expenses:
Taxes 40000
Insurance 40000
Utils 80000 (water, trash, outside lights, etc)
Mgt 35000 (we’ll hire our own mgr)
Maint. 150000 (est.)
Lawncare 12000

Tot. Exp 357000
Cashflow 637500

I’ve found a few comparable properties that sold for 30k per unit that were similar age, amenities, and within about 3 miles of the subject properties. Based on that I “think” the property is worth atleast 6M. What do you guys thinks?

I think $637,500 is actually your NOI not cashflow. Depending on financing terms, what will be our cashflow?

Our lenders would like to make a financing proposal.

What is the number of vacant unit as well as the rents on those units. Sounds like a great deal so far from the figures. This is something I might be interested in. Phone 901.461.7004
