Frequently Asked Questions: Douglas County Triplexes

Are there triplexes for sale in Douglas County right now?

Not right now. Triplexes in Douglas County come and go, so request an alert and compare triplexes across Georgia and the county's full multifamily page in the meantime.

Can I buy a triplex in Douglas County with an FHA or VA loan?

Yes, if you will live in one of the units. FHA and VA both finance owner-occupied properties with 2 to 4 units; FHA's minimum down payment is 3.5% with qualifying credit, and 3 and 4 unit FHA purchases must pass a self-sufficiency rent test. Conventional loans for an owner-occupied 2 to 4 unit home can also allow a low down payment. Ask a lender for current limits before you write an offer.

When do Douglas County triplex owners move up to an apartment building?

Usually when they want rent, not personal income, to carry the loan. At 5 units and up the deal becomes commercial lending sized to net operating income, most lenders want that income to cover the payment about 1.25 times, and the down payment is often 20% to 30%. Compare the triplex numbers here against apartment buildings for sale in Atlanta and across Georgia before you decide.

What rent should I count on a triplex in Douglas County?

The rent the units actually collect, from the leases and bank deposits, not the asking rent. Check it against HUD Fair Market Rents and a few nearby rentals. If you will live in one unit, many lenders count only part of the rent from the other units (often about 75%) toward qualifying, so ask your lender how they will treat it.

Will property taxes on a triplex in Douglas County go up after I buy?

Plan on it. Georgia assesses property at 40% of fair market value, and a sale gives the county assessor a fresh market value, so budget taxes on your purchase price rather than the seller's current bill. If you live in one unit, ask the Douglas County tax assessor whether a homestead exemption applies to your portion.

Can I 1031 exchange into a triplex in Douglas County?

Yes, when the property you sell and the triplex you buy are both held for investment. Identify the replacement within 45 days, close within 180 days and use a qualified intermediary. A unit you plan to live in does not count as investment property, so ask a tax advisor before you plan an owner-occupied exchange.
