NOI $8,537

My Letter of Intent: (through broker)
Lease option paying $500/mo., with $300/mo. counting as credit purchase price of $70,000.
In addition, offered % of rent increases above current annual gross income.

Owner countered:
Agree to a terms, except the first year the purchase price is $80,000. Second year $90,000. Third year $100,000.

I'm thinking, based on my NOI of $8,537 and a Cap rate of 10%. The property is worth at most $85,370.
If I purchase in the first year, with the rent credits, I'll buy it at $76,400.

I'll fix it up, raise the rents, and we are in business.

    Well you don't actually ask any questions so I'm oging to assume you just kinda want a general review.

    I'd try to tinker with the purchase prices iin the out years. Assuming the $80,000 represents current market value then the price in the option is escallating at 12.5% in the first year. Your rent credit toward purchase is about 4% per year. In other words the price of the real estate has to go up 8% per year for you to break even. Is that typical appreciation in your area?
