Basically looking at GRM= 22  and would give a 2.5% annual return. 

And always consult your accountant for further guidelines and instructions.

I'm considering purchasing accounting software as opposed to using spreadsheets.

Account Closed can you send me a few references?

We put about $2500 and some sweat equity into the property before renting it out (some flooring, new dishwasher, new water heater, painting, etc).income: $1295expenses: $108 vacancy (guess), $283 HOA fee, $161 property tax, $14 insurance, $130 repairs / updates (guess), $480 mortgagecashflow = $119And that doesn't take management into account, which so far we'll try to do ourselves (from NH -- I know that's iffy, but we did find a high quality tenant so we're hoping that not too much will happen).

Account Closed awesome thank you! 

He is asking for 2% annual management fee and 25% of the profits over 8% annualized return.

I was wondering if there is a way that the company that manages the LLC is the one with the bank account and not the LLC that owns the house?  

So I'd say the seller(s) should consult with an attorney or accountant, but it's possible they may owe much less than 15% or nothing.Also as Account Closed said, seller financing is also often attractive to people who are concerned about taking a big tax hit in one year - instead it's "pay small amounts as you go, over time as you receive the money" and is great for a number of reasons (no or a favorable interest rate for you, no bank BS, build long-term relationships and credibility with future sellers, possibility to discount in future with a payoff offer, etc.).It's worth having in your mental toolbox even if you don't use it on this deal.
