Need advice on my very first deal...
I have been listening and learning from all the discussions, books, and podcasts on BP for the past 5 months. I'm finally ready to take the plunge and think I found a great property to buy and hold. I live in Austin, TX and finding properties that cash flow positive has been really tough. I would like feedback from the forum on whether you think this is a good deal to chase.
- Monthly Income = $1950
- Monthly Expense = $1663
- Purchase Price = $192,500 (think I can get this down)
- Monthly Cash Flow = $286
- Cap Rate = 7%
- Cash on Cash Return = 8.11%
Thanks in advance for the help.
