Can't seem to find deals that cash flow
Hello San Antonio investors! I have only been in the market for a few months, but I was super excited about living in a market that would allow me to invest locally. Unfortunately, every deal I analyze ends up in either miniscule or negative cash flow. Here is a sample of a single family home in northeast S.A.:
Purchase price $110,000
Rent $1250/mo
Mortgage $594/mo
Insurance $100/mo
Taxes $267/mo
Repairs (5%) $62.50/mo
Capex (5%) $62.50/mo
Vacancy (Varies, but for this example 7%) $87.50/mo
Property management $104.70/mo
Net ($28.20)/mo
So, obviously there is a way to make money here or nobody would be inviesting. Please let me know your thoughts on my assumptions and how I can find deals that will provide a cash on cash return of at least 10%.
Thanks!
