I tried using the biggerpockets rental calculator this morning and the cashflow was negative, but I may have been too conservative with the numbers.

I have a calculator I can send you too.

I've been running the numbers on different properties using a variety of online calculators for properties that I initially thought looked like there may be potential.

I’ve done my calculations and have seen that I will be breaking even with this investment day one.

Here's the breakdown of rental income and expense analysis:1.Annual Gross Income: $25,800 (Monthly rent of $2,150 x 12)2.Annual Expenses: $25,800 * 0.40 = $10,3203.Annual NOI: $25,800 - $10,320 = $15,4804.Annual Debt Service: $10,680 (Calculated previously using a mortgage calculator with a loan of $131,775, 7.25% interest, and a 30-year term)5.DSCR: $15,480 / $10,680 = 1.45 (approximately)

Would love to hear your thoughts on whether pursuing this adjustment makes sense or if I should reconsider.For reference, I’ve included the following assumptions in my calculations:5% for maintenance3.5% for vacancy10% for capital expenditures and management feesThanks! 

Hey Robert,I recommend looking at BiggerPockets calculator.

If you're planning on only living there 1-2 years, rent may not change THAT much, so calculate what the rent would likely be right now for your side as well. 4.
