Monthly Cash Flow Question

[Libby Baugher]

Hi all, I have a cashflow question for you. I just purchased my first three units recently. I did the analysis beforehand taking into account the managment fee, vacancy, capex, repairs, mortgage, etc and it still came out above my monthly cash flow requirements. I purchased these through conventional financing....one was 30 year and the other, which was a duplex, was 15 year. My question is this....when you hear someone talking about their monthly cashflow requirements...are they talking about with financing or paid with cash? For instance Brandon from Bigger Pockets always mentions in his webinars/podcasts that he is looking for 200 per sfh and then 100 per unit for multi family. I always wonder how each of his are purchased and if he changes his cash flow requirements to reflect the purchasing method.
