First deal very nervous! Please help!
Deal analysis
List price: 29,999
House details: 3 bedroom 1 bathroom
Avg rent: 850-950
EXPENSES:
Monthly taxes: $47
Insurance: $75
P&I : $111.83
Repair : $45 (5%)
Vacancy: $45 (5%)
Cap ex: $45 (5%)
Mgmt: 90$ (10%)
Garbage: 40$
Purchase closing costs I put at 3,000
** And repairs I put at 8,000 (completely guessed as I was going off of the images of the outside and inside of the house)
I ran the numbers and seen a 28% cash on cash return With a $398.00 cashflow.
I have never done a deal before and I am very nervous to jump into this which I assume is normal. I understand the true value of the repair cost is most likely what is contingent on this deal being a good deal or bad deal. Just wanted to know what everyone on BP thinks and what should be my next action step. Thanks everyone appreciate all your help!!!

The numbers seem sound. 29k is pretty cheap, how's the neighborhood? Is there a lot of deferred maintenance that's going to come up in the coming years (old plumbing, electric, roof, termite damage, etc) that needs to be accounted for?
