Right time to invest in rental properties?

Sam Hemingway
Posted

Hey all, newish to the forums. I went to Brandon's webinar today. The topic was about working toward owning your first few rental properties and how to find good deals. Earlier this evening I've been playing around with the rental calculator. I dump in figures based on the tooltip suggestions, fill in the purchase price, etc. But I always end up with negative CoC percentages. Even when i enter lowball purchase prices.

If anyone lives in central oregon near eugene, I'm looking for suggestions on what I may be doing wrong. Brandon doesnt generally go for properties below 12% CoC on single family homes, I'm not even coming close to that (not even getting positive values).
