Hey guys.
I'm 20 years old and looking to get into real estate investing.
There's a new condo establishment under construction in downtown toronto (excellent location).
Condo is going for , 1 bed room 1 bath $364,000 (about 594 sq feet).
The rent will go for $3-3.5 per sq ft (so about $1782-2079 a month).
I can get a down payment from my uncle, 20% of purchase price = $72800.
That will leave me to get a mortgage of $291,200 at 3% for 5 years variable closed (amortization = 30 years).
Mortgage payment per year is about $1100-1200.
I am planning on renting out the property as soon as I purchase it leaving me with a return of about $682-879 per month (subtract $250 for misc. expenses) = $432-629 per month. The property will rise in value each year, I am planning on selling it in 5-7 years with a projected profit of about $150-200k (based on location, job market, businesses around area).
I'm not sure if I got everything here. This will be my first time getting into something like this. Cap rate is 3%. Can you guys please give me some advice, is this a fair investment? Is there anything else I need to watch for or add to my expenses? I don't really care how much the return is per month as all I need to make sure is the mortgage alongside the expenses is being paid by the renter (I don't want to pay even a penny each month). My motive for investing in this property is to exit in year 5-7 with a 6 digit profit (I've seen similar units in similar locations appreciate in value giving profits of $100k+ if bought on construction date).
Appreciation rate of even 1% after 5 years should leave me with $141k in profits after 5 years (normal appreciate rate for condos in toronto is about 2-5%)
Please give me some advice and what you guys think!
Thanks!
