Hey, fellow investors, I need some advice on this potential house hack with a Fannie Mae Conventional Loan. I’ll be living in one unit and renting out the other three. Here are the numbers:

Purchase Details

 Location- Ohio

  • Purchase Price: $249,900
  • Down Payment: 5% ($12,500)
  • Loan Amount: $237,400
  • Interest Rate: 6.8%
  • Loan Term: 30 years

Monthly Income (from 3 rented units, with me living in Unit 3)

  • Unit 1 Rent: $735
  • Unit 2 Rent: $925
  • Unit 3 Rent: $725 - Minus
  • Unit 4 Rent: $795
  • Total Monthly Income: $2,455

Monthly Expenses

  • Principal & Interest: $1,548
  • Private Mortgage Insurance (PMI): $150
  • Property Taxes: $317 (based on $3,790 annually)
  • Home Insurance: $120
  • Water & Sewer: $175
  • Repairs & Maintenance (5% of rent): $123
  • Capital Expenditures (10% of rent): $246
  • Vacancy Reserve (5% of rent): $123
  • Total Monthly Expenses: $2,802

Monthly Cash Flow

  • Total Monthly Income: $2,455
  • Total Monthly Expenses: $2,802
  • Monthly Cash Flow: -$347 (out-of-pocket)

Annual Cash Flow

  • Annual Cash Flow: -$4,164

Is there anything I’m missing? Does this look like a viable house hack, or would you pass? Appreciate any feedback or suggestions!
