In other words, if one would pay all cash for this unit, he would get 10% on his money, annually, which is not bad at all.Of course, there are many other variables to take into account.Stability of the area and the tenant, condition of the property, and the general neighborhood's economics and employment situation, to name a few.You can even lower the net to 70% instead of 75%, and still end up with a very good cap rate of just under 10%.For Southern CA property, that is a very good return.Do the math, even with 11% down, and 4.5% bank loan you will have a good cash flow (I did not do the math for this part, will leave it to you from here).Buy it.Amir
