Red flags and opportunities

Watch for

  • mediumAsking is $128,380 above the price where cash flow breaks even ($136,520) at the default scenario. Based on: Derived: price $264,900 vs. break-even $136,520
  • low$166 in special assessments on the current tax bill (often street, sewer or code-enforcement charges). Ask what they're for, whether they continue, and whether the seller pays them off at closing. Public record: Hennepin County parcel 0402924440176: special assessments (current) = $165.50

Opportunities

  • Long time on market: room to negotiate. Based on: Listing data: 158 days on market

Questions for the agent

  • Can we see the current leases and a rent roll, with move-in dates?
  • What did water/sewer/trash, heat and electric cost the owner over the last 12 months?
  • How old are the roof, boiler or furnaces, water heaters and electrical panels?
  • Is the building licensed as a rental for this many units, and when was the last city inspection?
  • Any special assessments pending, and will the seller pay them off at closing?

Standard questions worth asking about any building.
