**WANT TO LIVE MORTGAGE and RENT FREE?**
** CALLING SAVVY INVESTOR /OWNER OCCUPANTS**
Would you like to have a new home, and have someone else pay or help pay? Time for you to start thinking about Investing but need a place to call home?
An Investment property can also be a great place to live rent free and buy. It is a financially smart way to begin investing, build equity and minimize or eliminate a house payment. Sometimes, there’s even money to be made on top of that.
Check out this #FEATURED PROPERTY in Prestigious University City, MO, where you can live in one unit and rent the other one, and also can consider having a roommate or two for additional income.
Owner-occupants of multifamily properties often qualify for low or now money down on loans, minimizing the cash out of pocket. A home mortgage on a property of $559,500 would be somewhere in the $3000-$3500 monthly payment, depending on interest rates, down payment, etc. Market rents for 3-4 bedroom properties in this area are roughly $2400, or $4800 per month if you fully rent both apartments in the building. Let’s say you live in one bedroom and rent to a few others, maybe the total income would be $4200. That s a small profit and no house payment. Or live alone, and ($3500-$2400=$600) $600 estimates your monthly payment, while the second apartment builds equity in your mortgage!
Picture this:
- $31,200: Cost for 4 years of rent @ conservatively estimated rent of $650/month
- $192,000: Gross rents collected on a duplex with 4 bed 2 bath units renting at $2000/unit
- $168,000: Gross rents collected if owner occupies one of the bedrooms and doesn’t pay rent, but has 3 roommates.
Here’s a real example, for sale today, from which these numbers were projected. A #GORGEOUS #TWOFAMILY #PROPERTY near walkable entertainment areas and convenient to schools, hospitals, etc. This fully occupied duplex has 4 has bedrooms and 2 bathrooms per unit, a 2-car garage and a gorgeous pool – not to mention overlooking Flynn Park.

Priced to sell at $559,500, it comes with roughly $60,000 equity – as its neighbor and very similar property just sold at $640,000. Click here to review 7238 Pershing In #UCITY MO
