An investor is considering buying a rental duplex with land valued at $30,000 and the building valued at $150,000. Straight-line depreciation over 27 years will be taken. The investor will be actively involved in the management of the property. He is in a 30% tax bracket. Assume potential gross income of $44,000 in year one, vacancy of 12% and Operating expenses equal to 40% of Effective gross income. Gross potential income is expected to increase by 2% each year over the holding period. A lender will make a 20-year loan equal to 75 percent of the total value of the property at 9 percent interest with monthly payments. Assume that there is 3 percent inflation related to total property value each year the investor owns the property and that there is a 4% commission paid (selling expenses) in the year of sale. Assume that the investors after tax required rate of return is 12% and will hold the property for three years. Use the 25% tax rule where: for capital gain -- (tax rate >25% use marginal tax rate of 15%); for depreciation recapture-(tax rate >25% use marginal tax rate of 25%). Make sure to show all work below so that I can follow.
