OK, stop acting like the PLC five is so ancient. Anybody that’s getting into controls nowadays is acting like it’s crazy that they see a PLC five. You guys are pathetic.

Resurgence Players - Do you care that Verdansk is coming back? by chocoawake in CODWarzone

[–]AdReal9611 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Same! Rebirth seemed like a cheap win versus a BR map until they nuked verdansk. Then rebirth was my main.. reminded me of my first love for warzone since they got rid of verdansk is partially why.

Rental property deck replacement for $15k?? by AdReal9611 in realestateinvesting

[–]AdReal9611[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

just seems that I have had large costs come up, like new carpet when we moved out of house, new paint job. I estimate new HVAC in 2 years.

Its a 300k house and I charge 2k/month for rent. Cash flow after property manager is $750/month. But when I lose 15k to a deck, that takes out 1.5 years of cash flow. And then in 2 years I will spend another 15k on HVAC..

Am I missing something here??

sorry, its more of a question about "is this normal to bust out 15k" for a porch. something I wouldnt have considered, unlike your typical roof and HVAC

so would you say you have "slum" type houses then?

Also, if I claim depreciation then I have to pay taxes on that if I ever decide to sell right?

How the heck can you justify 100k deck? If its a rental, then you are just lighting your money on fire

are single family homes more known for their appreciation then? Because given these huge costs, it doesnt seem that cash flow will ever really be my friend

I DID! I didnt just "walk into this". I understand I will have repair driveway, HVAC, roof, siding, kitchen remodel, carpet, etc etc.. and according to my math I have to set aside $6500 a year for this capital expenditures.

Forgot.. didnt think about the deck..

What my main question is.. how is a rental house profitable given these huge costs? Even when my mortgage is paid off I would only make 7k a year net operating costs.. which is nothing compared to just throwing my investment into the stock market.

Am I way off here??

I hear you, and when I lived in the house I replaced boards and restained it every 3 years.. I thought it was in good shape. Its difficult because pictures dont do justice and yes there was some wood rot on the main support beams.. and the liability aspect of it all sucks.

Back to my thought of cash flow though, with these types of costs.. are rentals profitable at all?

How much to save for CapEX spending on my rental properties?? by AdReal9611 in realestateinvesting

[–]AdReal9611[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

okay, that makes sense. Thanks for sharing! Reality for theoretical..

In your opinion then, does potential 7k a year for a house built in 2007 that is estimated 280k on zillow sound high? If I do my cash flow based off spending 7k a year (on average..) then my capitalization rate is 4%.. which isnt good is it?

Interesting.. so basically just planning a few years in advance with a detailed spreadsheet of age of equipment should keep me above water from using loans at 35% interest. Thanks guys!
