Looking at buying two business properties from a relative. These buildings already have renters in them and have a lease agreement till 2020. Having trouble coming up with a reasonable offer though. Does anyone know the percentage of rent to property price I should be using? Thanks in advance

find out what the property is worth

find comps, look at appraisals

you want good rent to value but you do not buy with that metric alone. you need to see what is the most you could offer whilst still getting acceptable cash flow and good COC return(organize your offers with that in mind if you are going in low to start). You need to go run all numbers that will be involved. Sounds like you have a lot of work to do before we can help you further.

Are you financing or paying cash?



ETA: WTF are the downvotes for? Cash flow considerations are a pretty significant factor and it was a simple question...”cash or finance?” Sheezamm
