When done correctly, a seller carried note or sub2 purchase can be very beneficial for both parties as it can often resolve a problem or problems on each side of the coin.

If you have any common area space, you could put in coin-op W/D's to recoup your electrical and water costs.For you expenses, have you accounted for landscaping/mowing, CapEx beyond normal repairs (roof/HVAC/etc), and property management? 

Well then you are missing out on a net gain of $350/month.However on the other side of the coin you can get into the place a lot cheaper if you get an owner occupant loan like an FHA.

There is an on-site coin operated laundry (owned) room.
