BRRRR Investment Property Walkthrough & Deal Analysis

[@jambohomeventures]

I love buying and holding instead of flipping. That was a great transformation. I love your work. I just got my first rental property and I made a video about it. I can’t wait to scale up. Thanks for the inspiration

[@pj0017]

Buying and holding is like buying a dividend stock instead of a growth stock that makes you a 30% return in a year 🤡 selling when you can and buying a new property with more cash in your pocket makes way more sense

[@juanlee5764]

​@@pj0017 it's called passive income

Great great great video, we need more of these deal analysis scenarios, really helps understanding the whole process.

What do you think about this BRRRR investment? Let us know below!

[@jacethornton3923]

I love the down to earth way tarl explains stuff. I love the Brrrr idea as well. Love the fact that you can make 28% on 20k

[@EddieR181]

BiggerPockets this was a great video containing a lot of good information. Please consider adding more content like this. Maybe in Florida/Jacksonville area.

[@BigBoss-qo7yx]

Do a video on the house design software

[@ramtinmalek3165]

I didn’t see that you had considered for any maintenance cost and any utility cost in your cashflow calculation. In best case, the property will do $250 cashflow. This property will make 8-12% cashflow which is great, but 28% is misleading and I don’t think it is true. Great content though!

[@LifeCoach44]

I love the transformation, but I am concerned about cashflow being calculated as rent above debt service. There are definitely going to be operating expenses that need to be accounted for.

[@IsaiahTucker9908]

This video was OUTSTANDING!! He explained everything perfectly and when he used terminologies he explained what they were rather than expecting us to know. I LOVED how he went into detail on everything. Overall an outstanding video!!!

[@MoneyJourneyWithSonny]

Don't forget, you have to hire someone to manage your property and hold back maintenance cost as well. Unless you are going to manage the property yourself. Here in Texas, it'll cost you 1/2 of the first month rent and 10% monthly management fee. So, your ROI will be reduced by at least 50% of your numbers to include maintenance fund as well.

[@jeromewilson8817]

Question: do you own any rental properties in texas anymore?

[@dawens3199]

I find these videos to be way more informative and engaging than anything else on Bigger Pockets. Keep them coming, Tarl.

[@Iamstevenyang]

I would always add a 2nd bathroom, the resell value in the future is always more and you almost always get more money for rents.

[@LanceCastillo]

Wow. Such a huge job. I remember watching some of your first videos on this property, Tarl, when I started my first BRRRR project back in March. I was thankfully able to get my rehab done in two months and I just refinanced out at 3.875% on Friday. I've got a paying tenant which gives me a 25% ROI. Could not be happier. Now I'm looking for my next deal. Trying for a duplex or triplex if I can find it.

[@tarlyarber]

Awesome job! Keep crushing it

[@farmermike9262]

How did you find your first brrr? And how are you looking for the multi?

[@propertypointers]

Showing us how to do a floor plan would be a great video. Please do make a video of your process and walkthrough of how it's done on the computer program.

[@xxrdotxx]

Man! It would be nice to see these projects like this more often. More of these BRRRR or flip projects on biggerpockets would be great to see. Kind of like a continuation of the discussions they have now. A series would be great, talking about the issues they had to overcome, some pointers, and then go over the numbers.

I am a huge fan of BP as well, but this is the 1st time Ive seen one of your videos. Thank you Tarl and I am too starting to invest in the PNW but over in the Columbia Gorge, you have helped me out a bunch with this man!

[@carolyngraybeal451]

A video on the pro/cons of hiring an architect, draftsman, or using a combo of home design software and contractor would be great. When it is better to hire a professional vs "doing it yourself", when and how to use building professionals (engineers, architects, inspectors) most effectively, etc. Also, when in the design phase do you start estimating building cost? Do you have a budget beforehand you know you want to stay under or do you come up with several floor plans, get cost estimates for each plan and then adjust accordingly? For the project in this video, did you have to submit the floor plan to the county? Maybe this varies from state to state or single family home vs multifamily?

[@paulnelson9715]

Your videos are amazing, brother. Your real-life examples are incredibly valuable. Thanks so much for sharing what you do. You’re helping a lot of people.

[@jwanaplayer4093]

Thanks for sharing! Especially the part about why you didn’t add a second bathroom but instead made sure the one bathroom was large!

[@SterlingWhiteRealEstate]

An important thing to look at is the value added versus the cost to produce that value. Being able to come up with the best ratio is a factor for resale's and for rental's value.

@@charlesreid5137 you're right. They should have just left this place trashed, falling apart, rat infested and overall uninhabitable.

[@KayFabe87]

Charles Reid : perhaps the government should take over all property ownership and management. Surely that will lead us closer to "utopia". Before you endorse this idea; have a look at government owned and government run residential housing in urban areas, otherwise known as "the projects " and ask yourself if that is a model that you would like to see spread across the country on a larger scale. It would be like the Soviet Union, where everyone has "equal" housing so everyone can be poor and miserable together without having to worry about someone else having a nicer house than they do.

Nice find, nice rehab. As a multifamily broker in Florida, opportunities are few but a well thought out remodel always pays handsomely.

[@bros4441]

Hi question here: why are expenses like capex, vacancy, and fixing the property when things break not part of the analysis? I know that isn’t a fixed expense but when I look at deals that is the part that makes them not work for me. I will analyze and leaving that out everything looks amazing but adding them in drops the ROI to low

[@OlegLozytskyi]

Thanks for motivating me to lear more and make my own content. Great to see your channel grow and read all of these positive comments. Has anyone here was able to take advantage of low interest rates?

[@taylormeador248]

Expenses? 🤷‍♂️ Rent: $2,500 Vacancy: 5% - $125 Management: 5% - $125 Repairs: 1% - $25 Cap Ex: 1% - $25 Expenses = $300 Bringing cash flow to: $175p/mo / $2,100p/yr. Yielding a 10.5% return. I don’t know the market where you are but I feel my percentages are conservative.

23:49 High equity? Where is the equity? He borrowed for the house, renovation & shelled out on holding/borrowing costs ($327k liability). He crosses his fingers and gets a $415k valuation from his appraiser. The bank lets him borrow 75 percent of that ($311k) to (partially) pay off his original lenders so now he has $311k liability with BANK#2 and $16k liability with BANK#1 and an asset with unknown valuation producing $475 net cash flow a month. What were the terms of the original financing? How did he pay for the renovation? Was that out-of-pocket or from the original “hard money" and “private” lenders he mentioned? What am I missing here?

[@FranFdez-rs9gg]

What a great video. No BS, to the point, very informative. Thanks

[@calebtryhane7139]

I’m interested in knowing how much of the renovations is done in house by you guys? I am interested in doing my first BRRRR but I am not a great handyman. Wondering if this investment approach is still generally profitable if you rely on majority of contractors to do the work.

[@Mashcroft88]

I freaking love these videos, keep em coming!

[@justinyoung3068]

Thank you Tarl and BiggerPockets for sharing this insightful how-to video. I am wondering how does the private money lender and/or hard money lender get paid their full investment since the LTV won't be enough to pull out 100% of the out of pocket costs? Thank you in advance.

[@plane_dad]

Love the video, I have done a far amount of new construction, this has helped to inspire me to get back into real estate. You make it look so easy. I like the analysis. Keep doing that, look forward to watching more vids. The key to doing this is what Dave Ramsey says, "you make money on the purchase". That's vertually impossible here. To many people are buying so the purchase price does not leave the "around" 25% equity left at the end. And the hard money here is 15-20% with points and interest. And I don't have a rich uncle like some people have! 😬That's why I quit. I would like to figure out how to buy like all these very successful real estate go roos!! If you do see this I would like to get some information on that, I really like doing this kind of work.

[@davidr4523]

If you are a new house flipper or new to BRRRR and you have to compete against someone like Tarl Yarber, it will be very difficult to win. His deep experience, inhouse team, connection to financing and wealth will make him a winner in almost house he buys.

What kind of loan are you getting on it? Is it a regular conventional loan on your personal name using your own income to qualify? Or is an investor loan with these banks that use rental income to qualify? Thank you. Great video.

[@farmermike9262]

Sucks you didnt get a reply.good question

[@josellaos5676]

Yeah I thought it was a good question too. What I’ve done so far is refinances with banks that qualify the property with their rentals under my LLC. The rates are 5.5% at 60% LTV, thought they would be lower.

This was Awesome!! Easy to follow and understand. Thank you!

[@rojeet3]

[@johnmcguire6443]

Hi Tarl. Great video. I am interested in the design program you used. I'm finding one from Chief Architect called 'Home Designer Suite'. I also found one from Virtual Architect called 'Pro Home Design'. Are either of these the one you use? Thank you for your answer.

[@SeniorSpooky]

Awesome showing us all the details!

[@matthewsanders8236]

I have two questions. First, why do you use private lenders and hard money lenders to finance the purchase and renovation of your brrrr’s? I’m assuming you have the money to purchase the homes so it makes me wonder if maybe there is an advantage of using hard money and paying what seems to be unnecessary interest instead of using your own cash. Second, if you could go back in time at what point would you start keeping properties for cash flow and equity instead of selling? Would that point be 200k , 500k, 1 million in the bank ?

[@findingtruth9046]

How do you analyze what to buy the house for and how much to spend on Reno and what a good deal is?

[@Deshgrame]

Thanks for the detail. I really got it how equity and other RoI adding up over time and compensating the investment. But I did not see you talking about the other monthly expenses like, 1. vacancy, 2, Mentainance + Cap Ex, 3 Management Cost 4, Selling cost if you sale, . I suppose another 25% to 35% Cost need to have in consideration or be aware of. Thanks for all the effort. Learning everday.

[@freddyboss7]

Seattle is crazy expensive. That house originally would’ve cost maybe 40-50k here in OKC. But the ARV probably would be only between 150-170k depending on what area of the city.

[@bitterpiglet]

I’m assuming your PITI #’s don’t include any vacancy and property management? Fantastic ROI either way.

Great video! Question: do you include expenses (maintenance, cap ex, etc) in your PITI? It looked like when you were running the number you only subtracted the financing from the income (I didn’t see a line item for operating expenses). Any insight on this would be great. Thanks again for the video!

[@brandonboogren8660]

Never mind you answered my question later in the video 😅

[@AmericanBorn86]

You did not account for expenses (vacancy, management, Capex, utilities, etc) in your cash flow?? Seems super tight!

[@nobjob11]

He mentions that since everything is new that he does not factor in Cap Ex. Vacancy is also mentioned as a cost in his rehab - not sure how they factored that in tough. I agree though, seems a bit tight.
