THE BASICS
7.
GRM is the ratio of real estate investment to its
annual rental income BEFORE expenses.
Sales Price / Gross Annual Rent = GRM
Ex. 1: $400,000 / $24,000 = 16.7
Ex. 2: $500,000 / $33,600 = 14.9
Rent is $2,000 month
Rent is $2,800 month
Which house is a better investment?
Gross Rent Multiplier
8.
The Cap Rate is the ratio between the net
operating income produced by an asset and its
capital cost, or alternatively, its current market
value.
NOI / Sales Price = Cap Rate
Ex. 1: $15,000 / $350,000 = 4.3%
Ex. 2: $40,000 / $580,000 = 6.9%
Which house is a better investment
Capitalization Rate
9.
If one is good, two is better.
Ex.1: $500,000 home rents for $2,750/month
Ex. 2: $1,000,000 home rents for $5,000/month
Two $500,000 homes renting for $2,750 = $5,500
AND if one is vacant you still get
$2,750/month.

Simply put, cash flow is the movement of
money into and out of a business. A
professional property manger can help ensure
the money going in is maximized (rent).
My job is to make sure the money going out is
minimized (mortgage payment).
Cash Flow
17.
They are the same loan types and terms as
primary residence or vacation homes.
Selecting the right type and term can have a
significant effect on your bottom line.
Selecting the wrong type and term can turn a
great investment into a poor one very quickly…
Investment Property
Mortgages
18.
Fixed vs ARM (Adjusted Rate Mortgage)
Fixed Rates have different terms
Terms (30 years, 20 years, 15 years, 10 years)
ARMS (Adjustable Rate Mortgages)
ARMS are not EVIL
Terms (3 Years, 5 Years, 7 Years, 10 Years)
Mortgage Loan Types
19.
If you are acquiring a property for the purpose
of being an investment, the minimum down
payment is 20%.
TIP: Putting down 25% can reduce your
interest rate by up to .25%.
On a $400k investment property with a 30yr
fixed:
20% down payment = 4.75%
25% down payment = 4.50 %
Down Payment??
21. Down payment guidelines are more
relaxed for primary residence and second
home purchases. Rates and closing costs
are also lower. As a result, some clients
attempt to manipulate the system.
Attempting to call this new purchase a “primary
residence” when it is clearly an investment property.
Attempting to call this new purchase a “second
home” when it is clearly an investment property.
Common Pitfalls
22.
If you don’t have a two year history of being a
landlord, you can’t use the future rent to
qualify for a mortgage. (You will have to
qualify carrying your primary and investment
property)
There are many investors who will not allow a
client to carry more than 4 mortgages TOTAL
on their credit profile.
Common Pitfalls (cont.)
23.
If you live in a home and wish to rent it out and
acquire a new primary residence, you will have the
benefit of a nice low rate and smaller down
payment.
Condos are commonly thought of as a smart
investment. There are more restrictions on condos
than ANY other property type. (LTV, Investor
%, condo dues, defaults)
If you work with the mortgage lender in front of
you, you can have up to 8 mortgages in some cases.
