If I rent the property for $650, this is what I have:Expenses:$20/month hazard insurance on the trailer.$42.83/month taxes$65/month vacancy$65/month repairs$65/month capital expenditures$65/month management (I will pay myself to manage).$322.83/month Principle and InterestMonthly Cash Flow: $8.97I know This isn't a great cash flow deal, but I would essentially break-even until the property is paid off in 10 years if I held it as a rental.The other scenario, which I am leaning towards is to sell to an owner occupant with a wraparound mortgage.I could increase my cash-flow substantially, get a decent down payment, sell for a higher financed price, charge a much higher interest rate, and enjoy less management headaches.If I sold on a wrap I could sell for $39,900$5,000 down (tax refund time soon :)$34,900 amortized for 15 years @ 12.75% Interest = $435.84/month PIThis would allow me to make money on the front end ~$4,000 and make $133/month cash-flow.I could also play with the numbers a bit to make a higher IRR, but this seems like a doable scenario.Would you buy this?
