Return On Buying A House

The reason the largest investment houses in the Country are buying houses by the hundreds is the return simply makes sense.

Real Estate is having a 50% Off Sale going on RIGHTNOWand that means IT’S TIME TO BUY.

There may never have been a greater time to buy with property values having come off previous High Values to such Low’s while at the same time Interest Rates have done the same.

A $500,000 House just a few years ago is now a $250,000 House.   But that’s only part of why you should start making offers on houses right away.

The other half of the equation is what that $250,000 House, that’s 50% Off will cost you monthly.  We buy houses with a monthly payment so let’s look at what that monthly payment would look like.

            $250,000 Purchase Price

            3.5% 30 Year Fixed Rate Mortgage - Cookie Cutter 30 Year Loan

            4.125% Fixed 30 Year Mortgage Investors. 

Lenders charge slightly higher rate for investment property loans. 

Owner Occupied:        

Down Payment             Mortgage Payment       Taxes/Ins.         Total Payment

            3% Down         = $7,500          $1,090                         $285 Mo          $1,375

            10% Down       = $25,000        $1,010                         $285Mo.         $1,295

20% Down       =$50,000         $895                            $285Mo.         $1,180

Investor 25% Down

Down Payment             Mortgage Payment       Taxes/Ins.         Total Payment

            25% Down = $62,500             $910                            $285 Mo          $1,195

The way to tell if it’s a good investment is to figure out how much cash out of pocket you would be investing.

            In this case it would be the down payment plus about 3% closing costs:

                        Example:  $50,000 Down + 3% Closing Costs = $7,500  Total: $57,500

            Invest $57,500

            Rental Income: $2,000 Per Month +- =                                    $24,000 Per Year

            Less Mortgage Payments, Property Taxes & Insurance =            $15,540

                                                                                    Net Income:     $8,460

                        INVESTMENT:           $57,500                      

                        RETURN:                    $8,460

                        RETURN ON INVESTMENT: 15%
