Hypothetical deal in Baltimore, MD with regards to expenses

[Derick Wolf]

This is essentially my first real post. I'm planning on investing around the Baltimore, MD region within an hour or 2 if needed, and I'd like to do some buy/hold/BRRRR deals. I know best practice is to look for 2% properties, and I'm familiar with that and the 50% rule- but just looking on the MLS to get some practice, I see a house for sale in Washington Village / Hollins Market area of Baltimore for 85K that is 2BR/2BR, 1050 sq feet townhome that looks like it doesn't need any work unless someone wants to upgrade the kitchen or bathroom. Zillow says this could rent for $1,350- but I have it conservatively at about a $1,200 rental. This is close to stadiums, etc on Lombard St. Here is even the actual listing (which anyone is free to go after b/c I'm just doing this for practice):

930 W Lombard St, Baltimore, MD

I ran the following numbers- but I'd love for anyone to check my math to see if I'm crazy on thinking this is at least a little over the 1% rule, and why/"why not" this could be a decent perspective rental.  At first the zillow page had taxes at $79 per month- but Redfin has them at about $276- which is one of my biggest questions (how can I get an accurate tax rate- what should I calculate for tax rate in the city for a 1050sq ft property??

Price 85,000 (I'm assuming I could get it for 80K with 16K as down payment
Rent 1200 (14,400/yr)



Tax 276
Ins 30
Vacancy 120
Propt Man 120
Capex 120

Tot: 666 (7992/yr)

P/I: 352 (4224/yr)

$1018 ($12,216/yr)

Rent of 1,200 (14,400/yr)

Cash Flow: 2,184
Cash Invested: 16000 + 4000 closing costs = 20000

?What is Cash on Cash return?  .72??  

Any input on the math, or even this neighborhood in general is welcome and appreciated.

Dont forget to set aside the entirety of your cash flow to pay for the evictions, lol.
