Variable Landlord- Paid Expense Percentages
Hello Everyone!
I've seen previous posts that are a few years old when searching and just wanted to clarify what I should be plugging into these percentages. I've seen David Greene plug 5/5/5/8...but that seems pretty light for potential expenses. I've played with 10/10/10/10 and that has essentially killed any deal I've found no matter how good ARV is with current rates. However, if I'm not utilizing those percentages (5/5/5/8) it's getting really difficult to find little if any (mostly negative) cash flow on potential deals.
I know the high rates are making it rough and you want to marry the property and not the rate, but if I could get some advice on what fellow BRRRRers are using for their numbers I would appreciate it, if not for anything for a reality check for what I should expect.
I recently got approved for my HELOC and I'm about to take the dive so I'm trying to be as conservative as possible so when I find the right deal I can snatch it up.
Thank you everyone for your help and insight on this!
Casey

Actually, it should depend on the property Class you invest in.
The numbers you reference are for Class A rentals.
The numbers should be higher for Class B, then even higher for Class C.
