Possible first deal analysis

[Joshua Kapp]

Hi everyone thanks for reading. Below is the description I found online of a property. I'm Working on analyzing it but I found something I thought the current landlord has missed. They are charging $590 a month which comes out to $7080 a year. They then state the $1409 taxes and $550 insurance cost for the year. They then state a net profit of $5121. It seems to me they are taking the total rent and then subtracting the insurance and taxes from the total rent cost. From what I've learned the taxes and insurance should be transferred to the tenant. Which would result in a higher return on investment when the rent is raised to adjust for insurance and tax cost. I'm very new at this but would love anyone's feed back on this analysis. Thank you in advance! Great investment opportunity for beginner or experienced landlord.
