What do you expect for a return on an investment?

I'm new to Bigger Pockets and just going to jump in.

My question is; If you pay a mortgage on a property, how much (as a percentage) of a return on your money (monthly payment in this case) do you expect to consider it a good investment? For example, let's say your payment is $1,000 and you rent the property for $1,200, making a 20% return. Does that return include overhead and reserves?

I'm guessing I can probably find an answer to this somewhere on the site, but as I said, I'm new and just wanted to try out this forum. Thanks in advance for your reply.
