Help with deal analysis
Hi all,
I'm new to real estate investing and am practicing doing some deal analysis. I need help running numbers on a sample property as my results do not look/feel right (getting negative cashflow). I'm pretty sure my data is wrong but I can't seem to figure what it is. I tried doing the same type of analysis for multiple properties and keep getting negative cashflows.
Address: 11903 Fork Creek Dr, Houston TX 77065
Purchase price: $110,000 (asking $128,000)
Loan type: 30yr @ 4% fixed
Cash needed = $22,000 (20% downpayment) + $5000 closing = $27,000
Monthly rent = $1,350
Property taxes: $209/month
Insurance: $396/month
Other expenses (water, sewage, etc): $100
Vacancy/repairs/cap expenditures/prop mgmt: 5/5/5/10
Result = $1,350 (rent) - $1,425 (total expenses) = -$75.02 cashflow (??)
Where am I going wrong here? Or am I correct and this is a negative cashflow property? I'd appreciate any insight!
