FIRST RENTAL PROPERTY
HELLO
IAM ABOUT TO PURCHASE MY FIRST RENTAL PROPERTY.IT IS A MULTIFAMILY UNIT IN A NICE TOWN.I HAVE USED THE BP RENTAL CALCULATOR TO SEE WHAT MY PROFITS WILL BE,BUT I JUST WANTED TO ASK BESIDES MORTGAGE ,PROPERTY TAXES,HOMEOWNERS INSURANCE,UTILITIES FOR COMMON AREAS,WATER,SEWER AND PROPERTY VACANCIES.
WHAT ELSE AM I MISSING EXPENSE WISE TO TAKE FROM THE RENTAL PROFITS THAT WILL BE A MONTHLY EXPENSE TO MYSELF
THANK YOU
JOHN

some of the things you could think about in your calculations.
1. Legal expenses - fed/state taxes, corporations, court, travel, annual taxes (cpa, turbo tax)
2. Operating expenses - lawn, snow, repairs/replace for bulbs, detectors, window/screen, paint...etc
3. Capital expenses - roof, windows, appliances, furnace/boilers, water heaters
