First Potential Rental Property

Franchesca Ramaker

Hello BP,

Thank you in advance for any input and advice. I'm trying to get into my first rental property, but with the market hot and prices high I haven't been able to find anything where the numbers work. I use BP's rental property calculator, which is fantastic. I finally found a SF property for $50,000, which seems incredibly low, in a B/C area of St. Paul, Minnesota. This seems like a no-brainer, and when I drove by the property I saw others touring it (first day on the market). When I run the numbers, however, I only come out with a $40 monthly income. I plan on using the BRRRR strategy.

Purchase Price $50,000 cash
Repairs $30,000 cash
Estimating $500 for closing costs
4B2B 1323sqft SFH
Income $1100/month

Expenses
Taxes $57
Insurance $90
Water/Trash $150
Vacancy 5% $55
Capex 5% $55
Repairs 5% $55

Net Profit of $638/month
If I refinance and get a loan for $80,000, PITI is about $600/month.

This is the link to the BP report I made. https://www.biggerpockets.com/buy_and_hold_results...
Any advice or corrections on my numbers is greatly appreciated!

Thank you!
