Double checking my numbers

Posted

Hello all,

    I have performed some basic rule of thumb tests on renting out a property of mine, but before I fully commit I would like to double check with you all.


I have a single bed and single bath house, 650sq ft, built in 1905.  I paid 80k for it and owe 37,500 at 3.5%. Total mortgage with insurance payment is 680 a month.  I have called around in my area and it seems like Property Management companies charge 10% of the gross Rent.  Comps in my area min: 854 max: 1440 as according to BP Rent Estimator.

I am thinking that at a minimum, I should be breaking even.

Am I crazy or missing anything?


Thank you.
