Step 1: Buy

NOTE: All numbers in this example are approximate.

Property is appraised at $100,000

Buy property at distressed market price of $60,000 (40% below appraisal)

Pay $20,000 down on financing of $60,000

Mortgage loan = $40,000

Total Monthly payment = $400.00 PITI (Principal, Interest, Taxes & Insurance)



Step 2: Fix

Invest 20% of purchase price for renovations:

.20 x $60,000 = $12,000 cost of renovations

The new property value is: $120,000.00





Step 3: Rent

Rental market returns 9%:
.09 x $120,000.00 = $1,080.00 per month rent income

Rental Income & Expense Breakdown:

  $1,080.00 Monthly Rent Income
  $400.00 Mortgage Payment
