I was wondering what percentage people are using for vacancy, repairs, capex, and management fees when using the rental property calculator to evaluate deals.

BTW, as long as the lease payments cover your existing PITI, many lenders will take a high percentage of the rent towards you income, and it might 'ding' your debt to income ratio a bit, but probably not prohibit your going for another property/loan.  

If you don’t use 100%, the percentage of interest is deductible. 

You might see if you could get two at a time and work that angle still going to need your percentage down and a lender willing to work with you but it might be an option.Good Luck,

What kind of partnership or ownership percentages should we consider? 

Once you build a relationship with them through multiple loans they'll increase the percentage up to the full amount.  

A property that you are going to hold and rent may be worth a larger percentage because I will get a property at a price I like and can make cash flow on the rents.  

I would use as many of the actual numbers from the property that you can find, but beware that some numbers may be missing or edited to make them look better, so you should have a rough percentage that you use for your calculations.  

Yes, i am looking for long term hold and rents, i dont have enough experience in rehabbing to do a flip yet, due to my physical limitations from my military days, i am striding to increase my passive income to a point i can comfortably live the rest of my life on.In regards to the %, i have no clue, i have gotten multiple comments to just go by the percentages.... with no additional details.

The idea would be to bring sweat equity into the deal in the form of running work and helping keep costs down in exchange for a percentage of the profits.
