The predicted rent seems a bit high. I'd guess more like $900 to a $1,100 (if you're lucky). If you get a $1000 for rent and your P.I.T.I. payments are around $675.00 a month that only leaves you with $325.00 cash flow. I hope you don't have a lot of trees in the backyard. Inkster is notorious for main line problems, because of tree roots. Also, be careful who you rent to. Good luck.
