Make your money work – Calculating monthly income returns

To calculate the return on investment, there are numerous methods and formulas to use. The simplest way to calculate it is to base it on the cash generated as a percentage of the TOTAL amount invested.

Note: Investors are accumulating over €100,000 in Net Operating income over a 5 year term with similar investments.

 

Returns made from the profit from the sale of the property after 5 years are not included which will increase the overall ROI of the investment significantly. On exit a liquid market is vital and currently exit timelines are 10-12 weeks. Rent increases of 4% p.a. result in 17% increase in net operating income over 5 year period.

 

Achieving a long-term income generation investment is key to our strategy however these great returns can only be achieved by having an efficient tax optimised structure in place. Spire Capital is achieving similar annual cash returns free of Irish income tax for some of our international clients

    What key numbers should considering when investing in a 2 bedroom apartment in Dublin city?

    What key numbers should considering when investing in a 2 bedroom apartment in Dublin city?   We’ve done the research on the best locations in Dublin and highlighted the important developments that have successfully worked in the past. All that is required is analyse the key numbers to ensure the returns meet requirements.   For example, lets say we wanted to buy a 2 bedroom apartment in the IFSC, Dublin for a purchase price of €350,000. The acquisition costs would be as follows: Government Stamp duty: For residential property, it is calculated at 1% of the purchase price up to €1m.   Legal & Ownership Registration fees: Some solicitors will charge a flat fee while others will charge a percentage of the house price, usually around 1% or 2%. We have budgeted 1.5% plus vat. This would include the solicitors fees and any extra small land registration charges. Note, we do not use a notary in Ireland. The buyer will have a solicitor and the seller will have their own solicitor.   Independent Building Surveyor: Surveyor’s fees associated with this type of property are typically based on the time it takes to provide the service. Chartered building surveyors do not typically estimate their fee as a percentage of the property value. They factor in travel time to and from the property, the number of hours spent on the site, and the time spent drafting and finalising the report. It is not unreasonable therefore to estimate €1,500 plus vat for a 2 bedroom apartment.   NOTE- Fit-out: No fit-out budget or capex is included in the property purchase above. Tenants will typically rent an apartment fully furnished. The apartment will always include kitchens, bathrooms and laminate hardwood floors but investors will need to budget approx. between €5,000 - €10,000 for furniture and some fittings Broker & Professional Fee’s: 6% of the purchase price plus VAT. Included in this amount is the Spire Fee. Irish Property Company (“PropCo”) set-up including a PropCo bank account set-up Appointment of a resident legal representative (General Manager) of PropCo in Ireland.
