Details of the property to check before buying an investment property
Has placed the investment property that you think what he wants. Before getting involved with the detail analysis of the revenue, expenditure and financing, it is necessary to find out more about him. Despite our assessment tool investment property (which is downloadable free to subscribe to our newsletter in http://reijb.com) contains most of the issues are of interest to you, we will discuss some that are not in the analysis and see why they are important.
Age of property
Repairs when the property is greater, or the replacement cost of the device can expect in the near future. This should be taken into account at the price they are willing to pay for the property. Do not let an old building just because they needed some repairs or replacement. These costs can be paid through the tax deduction. Assuming you are in a support of 28 percent tax, for example, are spending only 72 cents for the repair – The Malaysian government is contributing to an additional 28 cents. This makes the cost of repairs rather cheap.
For example, suppose your taxable rental income new investment property RM1000. You're supposed to pay a tax of RM280. But it was RM100 for repairs when he bought the property. Now your rental income RM900 is passive and the tax payable is RM252. The RM28 your tax savings is just a 28% discount on repair costs!
Good examples of repairs are deductible from the painting, fixing gutters or floors, repairing leaks, plastering, and replacing broken windows.
Rental history
Look at a property that is a few years. Have you enjoyed high occupancy levels in recent years? What happened to your occupation or level of income during the economic slowdown?
There are three easy and inconspicuous ways to find out if the building is fully rented. Newsflash discreet, because he wants to alert tenants that something is happening,
- The less precise control is to watch the mailbox. White strips Time may indicate empty dwellings.
- A more precise control, search the underground room where each apartment is individually measured electric. See many meters have turned off by TNB, indicating the apartments are unoccupied.
- Final inspection is designed for night owls. The unit by the building into three or four in the morning and see if the parking spaces are filled. This test does not work during the day because most tenants often be gone. You can also see how many units are lit after eight at night, if not to be an owl.
This inspection also gives you an idea of the quality of tenants in the building. When parking lots are filled with motorcycles, for example, not expect the building to be occupied by wealthy retirees.
Neighborhood
What type of properties surrounding the property you are considering? Is yours the only well preserved building on the street? You may have trouble keeping it that way. The deterioration of the areas are usually followed by difficulty in renting apartments and therefore the vacancy promotion.
Building condition
What is the physical condition of the building? His selling and buying (SPA) can provide, at cost, the option of having at least a termite inspection performed by an authorized inspector. Are the apartments in good condition? This will not only tell repairs you can cope, but also give an indication of the type of tenants that are renting apartments.
Services
Services such as clubhouse, pool, tennis courts, and laundry that affect how your property is competitive with other rentals in the area. Increased number services, such as tennis courts and swimming pools, however, can not be justified by the complex smaller, because a change of management costs and required sinking fund may be relatively higher.
Parking
In today's society, parking has become a serious problem. Almost every family in Malaysia has at least one car. Unless the building is being considered has at least one parking space for each apartment, plus a proportionate number of "visitor" parking spaces, you better think twice. Two parking spaces per unit are desirable but not necessary.
If the complex is located on a street mojor, do all or part of the front parking spaces on the street? If they do, what happens to parking, whether to extend the street?
Furnished or unfurnished
There is something to be said for and against for furnished apartments. First, the good news. Furnished apartments usually demand a higher rent.
For the bad news, furnished apartments deteriorate more quickly. The furniture will last many years and the tenants will not be as careful with your furniture, as they are yours. Tenants in furnished apartments tend to be less stable. It is easy for them to pack up and move, for what they do. A tenant who has to hire a moving company, probably will think twice, unless otherwise to find a better place for less money is their motivating factors.
These basic data relating to the property you wish to purchase will add to its assessment investment. You are now ready to collect the revenue, expenditure and financing information from the seller and make your own analysis of the property to determine how much can afford the cost of the investment property you wanted.
