Please evaluate this property (1st time doing this)
Hello,
I'm starting to practice analyzing deals and I was curious what you all thought of this listing... The strategy would be to buy and hold/
For the sake of evaluation, let's say that Mount Vernon is a C- to B- neighborhood.

3BR 2 Bath SFR (1602 sqft) in Mount Vernon, Ohio
1 Car Garage
Listing Price $74,900
Average Rent per Rentometer $850
Taxes in 2017 $1210
Insurance (estimate) $250/year
My thoughts are that the monthly payment will be around $430 if I put 15k down on the listed price.
This would leave me with a $210/month cash flow after the 50% rule. This doesn't take into consideration vacancy and capital expense. I'm not really sure what the cap ex would be but, to be conservative I'd put the vacancy at 10% ($85) and that takes my monthly cash flow down to $125.
Also, does Capital expense come into play if you are still working an FT job and able to save a substantial amount each month?
Again, this is the first time I've practiced looking at a deal and I'm NOT buying this place. I'd love to hear your feedback!!
