So go to Zillow rentals and figure out what that rents for… in my area that’s around $1.15/sqft or around $1150/month.From there it’s a math equation… $1150 minus principle, interest, taxes, insurance and $100 maintenance reserve equals my expected cash flow.  

To be clear, the ARV is $215k and even if the rent was 1800-1900 the math seems to be favorable to add.
