Hi All,
I have a difficult dilemma regarding a 20-Plex I viewed.
Numbers are good. However, property is:
- Almost 90 years old. (in good condition relative to its age though)
- Only 5 parking spots. (zero vacancy though which is good. most tenants either retired or have low income hence no car)
- Flat roof 25 yrs old close to end of its life. (expensive but I plan to negotiate the price accordingly or prepare an amendment so not a deal breaker)
- There is a pressure crack near corner of last floor. was explained to me building settled and this is very common and normal for a building that age.
Assuming numbers are great (good CAP Rate, tenants pay hydro) and location is good, would you skip this property due to any of the above or would you put an offer subject to satsifactory fianncing and home inspection?
THANKS,
Neil
