I’m looking at a park that is 98 lots and has 81 tenants (all tenant owned). The average lot rent is around $325 and the market is probably more like $425-$450. It was city water/sewer direct billed and is a decent looking park aesthetically and is in a good market and has a good location in that market.
How would you guys value this? The owner wants $4.5m and it feels a little high but am i crazy to be considering $4m here?
I would need to see the entire P/L to give a solid recommendation, but 4 million for the limited description you provided sounds like an excellent deal.
Bottom line: does it cash flow after all expenses including mortgage?
If so, you have 18 lots to in fill which will increase income, as well as, increasing rents to market.
If I was aware of this deal. I would become your competition
Thanks! It feels worthwhile with the potential value created through the upside. It’s also a market where if rates remain high with inflation, I think the market will support rent growth of at least the national inflation reading.
The recent rate environment makes pricing more tricky but I know I’d be all about this deal if rates were around 5.5-6% or under.
I realize this is late and you probably already moved on purchasing or passing on the property, but I’d love to learn what happened. Especially in light of what MHU teaches. Given your numbers, unless I’m wrong, Frank would value this at $2,211,300 (81 x $325 = $26,325 x 12 = $315,900 x .7 = $221,130 x 10).
