Post: How do you come up with a percentage for vacancies

Hey everybody! Just a quick question for you guys. I'm looking at a property that has 5 units. It's monthly income is $2,475. Asking price is 150k. I like that it's well above the 1% rule. I'm still waiting to get the rent roll and monthly expenses report to verify the income and operating costs. Tenants pay all utilities. I'm estimating monthly expenses to be around $600-$700/month (hopefully that's high). So, if I can't get the property for less than 150k, I'll be putting down 30k (20%), estimating loan at 120k, with a 6% interest rate. I'm estimating it high because I'm not sure what rate I'll get yet. I should be finding out tomorrow. PM is 8% per door which comes to $198/ month. NOI is $1,677 with a estimated loan payment of $720/month. After all these numbers, estimated cashflow is $957.54. 13.42% CAP rate and 38.30% CoC return. The numbers look good so far. I just need help trying to figure out how to calculate vacancies.

Hey guys, brand new member here! Looking to by my first rental property. Looking into Memphis, TN and Huntsville, Alabama markets. However, I may have a problem. My question is...is it possible for me to get a loan for a rental property even if I have a house and owe 400k on it? I live in CA, and the military pays me money to make my mortgage payment. My wife and I have no debt besides the house. I’m just unsure if they would allow a 22 year old to get another loan? If there is anyone in the Vacaville, CA area that would like to meet up, let me know! I’d love to discuss real estate! Thanks in advance!
