Hello BiggerPockets - Property Analysis
Hi BiggerPockets,
This is my first post to the forums. I am very excited and driven to find my very first REI property. My goal is to find a 2 flat in a Chicago neighborhood and live in one of the units (House Hacking).
I found a property and would like some feedback on the numbers to make sure I am doing this right. Please let me know if my numbers are off or am I missing any expenses. I do plan on managing this myself but also added 10% management fee.
