I'm brand new to investing and planning on purchasing my first short term rental in Navarre, Florida. I'm have a really hard time running numbers to get an accurate idea of how much it will cash flow and it it would be a good investment to move forward with or not. I've used about five different calculators and seem to keep getting a wide range of numbers none of which I trust.

Anyone willing to look what I have below and tell me where I might be off?
