Any feedback that the good people of BP could give would be greatly, greatly appreciated.Here are some assumptions I made: The three really important numbers are highlighted in blue at the bottom: net operating income (NOI), total cash flow, and total return.I'm treating this property as an expense rather than an investment (since I'll be living there), so I'm not overly concerned about obtaining positive cash flow while I live there.The one number that's still in question is the insurance - Liberty Mutual quoted me $3,500/year, which seems incredibly high to me.
