Investment Home Primer
For those new to the OBX market, here is a quick overview:
Rental income is largely determined by your distance to the ocean. An oceanfront property will always rent better than one that is 3-4 rows back. They get a higher rental rate and typically rent for more weeks out of the year. A newer oceanfront home can rent for 24 weeks of the year, whereas a house that is 3-4 rows back may only rent for 16-18 weeks. With most investment properties, the strength of the investment is based on the cash flow (money in vs. money out). The way to analyze this is GRY (Gross Rental Yield). This is calculated by dividing the gross income by the purchase price. An example would be: If a home has a gross income of $85,000 and cost $1,000,000 the GRY = 8.5%. A general rule of thumb in our market is if the home produces a GRY of 8% or above, it should cover most all of the expenses, including mortgage.
Expenses can range from utilities, taxes, mortgage, property management, insurance, HOA fees & maintenance. These will vary depending on many things: An oceanfront home will have higher insurance rates. Some homes have very low HOA fees and others are quite high. A newer home will have fewer maintenance issues vs. an older home, etc
HOA fees will largely be determined by the services and amenities provided. Some subdivisions will offer swimming pools & tennis courts but the HOA fee will be higher to pay for these things. Other subdivisions may not offer an expansive list of amenities, thus the HOA fee is low.
Most of the OBX is on private septic systems, however there are subdivisions with sewer systems. Areas with septic will usually be platted on larger lots since the septic area takes up space. If a subdivision is set up on a sewer system, the lots may be very small. That means the houses could be much closer to each other. The HOA would also have to charge a fee for the sewer system usage.
Property management is big business here. There are many rental companies on the beach. The owner chooses who they want to use based on performance, rates, and services provided. The rate can range from 14% to 20% of gross rents depending on the services you want them to provide. You can either have them take care of everything (bookings, pool service, weekly cleanings, linens, landscaping, filter changes, etc) and that rate may be 18-20%. However, if you hire your own pool company and you do the landscaping yourself, that rate would be reduced. In NC, if the home is in a rental program, the new owner has to honor all weeks booked for at least 180 days from closing. That way a new owner can't simply cancel everyone's reservation.
All rental money is prorated to the day of closing. That means if you bought a house and closed on May 1st, you would own all the money from any week booked after May 1st. The seller would keep any money from the weeks occurring prior to May 1st.
This is an amenity driven market. The more amenities a house can offer will make it more attractive to potential renters. Swimming pools, hot tubs, gamerooms, views, theater rooms, etc are what renters desire and these amenities will increase your bottom line. Most of these homes are sold fully furnished, so you get most everything in the home included in the purchase price.
