10%+ Returns?

How can an apartment building generate 10%+ returns?

Let’s examine my most recent apartment building purchase. The building was bought for 30 million. And at 90% capacity takes in 4.5 million annual rental income.

The expenses run about 2.4 million per year netting 2,100,000 per year of profit.

Add financing at 6%.

The general partner borrows $24,000,000 (80% of $30,000,000) at 6% incurring a $1,600,000 debt expense. But even after debt expense, you are left with $500,000 profit (2,100,000 - 1,600,000 = $500,000).

Assume all partners contribute 6 million (20% of the property value) plus also another 2.75 million for initial repairs/upgrades. So total partner outlay = 8.75 million.

Bottom line: You allocated 8.75 million to purchase the property and earn $500,000 per year. $500,000/8.75 million = 6% per year initially. If rents rise and expenses remain constant, you stand to earn much more. For example a 10% rise in rents (2% for 5 years) generates $500,000 more rental income increasing the profit to $1,000,000. $1,000,000/8.75 million = 11% per year.
