* Note: Most of the number crunching were done for properties in TX (Houston & Dallas) and FL (Jacksonville)...Thanks in advance for sharing your experience(s)!

We viewed it, along side other investors and I crunched the numbers.

While I agree it could be beneficial in the short term owning a property outright, you would have to crunch numbers with some other property estimates. 

However, it'll rent for $1400, and crunching the numbers, that cash flows just under 100 a month.  

They've asked me to give them a proposal if I am interested.So I've crunched the numbers and don't see a way for this to be profitable for me to loop them into my current plan.

While I agree, I would caution you to do a little more number crunching and due diligence before you jump in. 

I would totally scout properties and crunch the numbers to understand how they work, but would save up first, or syndicate a deal!

I would start looking at some potential properties and crunching numbers. 

I am crunching the numbers and need some help trying to determine what would be the costs associated with different financing methods :- HML+Long term refi : 2/3 points + 10/14% interest only payments, what closing cost to expect or what is a good estimate when closing with HML?

Closer to $175,000+ but when I crunch numbers, I crunch them worst case scenario.
