First look

This is really two finished units plus an unfinished basement, not the four units FACTS assumes. The description gives a 4-bed/2-bath main unit and a 1-bed/1-bath unit, and the basement is only a plan, so the underwriting of four rentable units (7 bed/4 bath) overstates income today. The $325/mo cash flow and 7.9% cap at ask lean on rent estimates for a unit that doesn't exist yet and on unverified taxes. No rents are stated, so get the rent roll and leases first. Worth a showing only if the real rents for the two occupied units support the price and the basement can be finished legally.

Things to consider

  1. Only two units produce income today The basement is unfinished, so cash flow depends on completing it. Underwrite two units and treat the third as upside.Listing says: “The unfinished lower-level unit offers even more potential with a planned 2-bedroom, 1-bath layout.”
  2. Our $325/mo cash flow assumes estimated rents and four units Without a rent roll, income is estimated, and taxes are unverified. Break-even price of $320,985 is likely too generous.
  3. Basement completion cost and legality Finishing needs permits, fire separation and inspection, and the cost eats the upside. A non-permitted unit can't be counted on.Listing says: “Once completed, this space could provide an additional rental unit and increased income potential.”
  4. Recent updates reduce near-term capex but are mostly cosmetic Fresh paint and flooring don't tell you about the boiler, wiring or plumbing behind the walls. Get an inspection.Listing says: “Both occupied units have seen extensive updates, including new flooring, fresh paint, plumbing improvements”
  5. Small market with thin rent data Breckenridge is a small town, so the rent estimates carry a wide range ($700 to $1,200). Tenant demand and vacancy risk are harder to gauge.
  6. 1926 build with a roof about 10 years old The roof has maybe a decade left, and a 1926 building may have older electrical and a boiler to budget for.Listing says: “The roof and fascia were updated approximately 10 years ago.”

Red flags and opportunities

Watch for

  • highBasement unit isn't finished or rentable yet; finishing needs permits, inspection and cost Listing says: Once completed, this space could provide an additional rental unit and increased income potential. · AI review
  • mediumCouldn't match this address to a county parcel record, so taxes and unit count are unverified. Public record: County parcels: no match for 230 11TH ST N
  • mediumNo rents, lease terms or expenses given despite pitching 'established rental income' Listing says: This multi-unit property offers established rental income along with additional value-add potential. · AI review
  • mediumOur model counts four units and 7 beds, which the description doesn't support Based on: data: listing.unit_count · AI review
  • lowHeat appears to be radiators (boiler likely); the description only says 'heating improvements', so type, age and who pays are unclear Listing says: heating improvements and more · AI review

Opportunities

  • Finish the basement into a 2-bed/1-bath unit for added rent Listing says: Much of the preliminary work has already been completed, including new framing and sheetrock · AI review
  • Egress window already installed, which helps legal bedroom status Listing says: a large egress window · AI review
  • Heavy recent updates in occupied units may keep near-term repairs low Listing says: Both occupied units have seen extensive updates · AI review

Questions for the agent

  • What are the current rents and lease end dates for both occupied units?
  • Is the basement work permitted, and has the city inspected it? What's left to finish and the cost estimate?
  • Which units are separately metered, and who pays heat, water, sewer and trash?
  • What type of heat is it (one boiler or separate), and how old is it?
  • What are the annual taxes and any special assessments?
  • Is the property licensed or zoned as a duplex or triplex?

Bottom line

A two-unit rental with an unfinished basement sold as a triplex story; the numbers only work if the real rents and a legal basement build-out back them up. AI-assisted summary
