It is also worth noting that property management is often closer to 30% of gross rent for a short-term rental due to the much more intensive hands-on management compared to a typical 10% for long-term and as such, I agree with recommendations above that medium term rentals may provide the best of both worlds if you are able to tailor proximity to a local need, e.g. hospitals and travel nurses.Again, happy to relay my personal experiences in the area if you're interested.Best of luck,Patrick

The reality is that the Gross S8 Rent amount on an S8 voucher includes all utilities.

Bought it for $300,000, it appraised for $375,000, and the gross rent is $2,625.My lender only lets me pull out 80% of the purchase price right now. $240,000.

Meanwhile, gross rents of $1,800+ for 3-bedroom single-families is an achievable figure, so it’s possible to generate cash flow if you lever modestly.There’s a bunch of other stuff that’s worth highlighting—the economy, demographics, neighborhoods, new construction, and more.

@Paul De Luca PITI 11.4k, Gross Income (once I move out) 12.5k 

Quote from @Olga Daisel: @Randall AlanI agree with Randall on getting more details, $7K gross a unit btw is a great gross income.

What percentage of gross revenue does an owner typically keep if they do employ a property manager?

With a fideicomiso, the gross income is taxed through a withholding tax whereas, with the corporation, the rate, you can deduct expenses but the taxation rate is higher.

A real rough back-of-the-napkin metric I use is if a Colorado property's gross annual STR revenues can equal 10% of the purchase price.

Do you happen to have long term % of gross rent of combined maintenance/repairs/turnover costs/CapEx  ?
