First look
This is a flipped duplex asking $424K after a $163K purchase 14 months ago. Our numbers say it makes about $27 a month at the asking price with 20% down, with a 6.5% cap rate. Break-even price is about $429K, so the ask is roughly $5K below break-even on our rents of $1,925 per 3-bed. The finishes look clean in the photos, but cosmetic work can hide problems, so check permits for the electrical, plumbing and HVAC the listing claims. The tax delinquency and missing rental license need answers before anything else. Worth a showing, but cash flow is thin, so any surprise cost erases it.
Things to consider
- Price is roughly in line with what the rents support At asking, cash flow is about $27 a month and break-even is near $429K. The margin is thin, so a price cut would add cushion.
- Flip economics: bought for $163K, asking $424K Renovation quality matters more than the finish. Unpermitted work could cause insurance, inspection or resale issues.
- Delinquent taxes and no rental license on file Back taxes and penalties come out of the deal, and an unlicensed rental can delay legal rental income.
- Separate utilities help operating costs Separate furnaces and water heaters let tenants pay their own utilities, which keeps owner expenses low.Listing says: “separate furnace, and separate water heater, allowing for independent utilities and low-maintenance ownership”
- Rent estimates are mid-range for 3-beds Two 3-beds at about $1,925 each gross roughly $46,200 a year, which just about carries a $424K price at today's rates.

Questions for the agent

- Why are the property taxes delinquent, and are they paid off at closing?
- Is the building licensed as a rental in Minneapolis, and has it passed inspection?
- What are the special assessments for, and do they continue?
- Are there current tenants or signed leases, and at what rents?
- Will the seller consider a price closer to $350K given the time on market?

Clean flip, and at $424K it roughly breaks even monthly and sits about $5K below our break-even price, so verify permits, taxes and licensing before you proceed. AI-assisted summary
