If your average heating bill is $150, you may not collect enough in the winter months when the bill reaches $225 but you'll collect extra in the summer when it drops to $65.

My overall goal is to generate monthly cash flow, and my current property might be a better rental option since it has equity.I’m also considering starting a business and purchasing the next property in the business’s name.

This tenant is currently month-to-month and has lived in the unit for 18 months.I was in the unit six days ago and they had nine litter boxes.

The tenant fails to pay their last month's rent and leaves the place needing new flooring and paint.

I'm looking at monthly cost to seller vs. anticipated rental income, purchase price relevant to the ARV of the area and interest rate, balloon, etc.

We gross in between $2,500 - $3,000/month on that unit.

The house has been on the market for many months..."

This took under two months to get rent ready and should cashflow about $500+ each month.

Even if you break even, you will lose money every month it sits vacant, when you need repairs, property management, etc.

Quote from @Catherine Ding: My PM company is offering to do it for a high fee of $100/month so I'm trying to find alternative options.
