1. You're not going to pick up an investment property using bank financing without at least 20% down, realistically 25-30% down. If you don't have that, then time for a different strategy.
2. @Caleb L. already mentioned Vacancy; let me add the following suggestions: remove PMI (because you won't get investment financing needing it), the listing appears to show an addition city tax of $1268/year, that should be added; it's a townhouse, what's your reason for paying water and sewer? I'd thrust all that upon the tenants. Good luck!
Thanks for your feedback! I will start to strategize around having to put at least 20% down. I just hate to have my investment basis be so high, therefore lowering my ROI. That's why the BRRRR method appeals to me and I am learning more about that. Regarding the other monthly expenses, noted! Thanks again!
