My experience is that I can rent a two bed/one bath upstairs apt for $650/month.Mortgage - $300 (assumption is conventional loan...this is variable)Maintenance - $32.5 (5%)Management - $65 (10%)Property Tax - $50Total Expenses - 447.5Net - $252.5Quite honestly, I think I could make these numbers look better (refinance my duplex and get cash out for much less for example), but I'm curious what others think.I should probably state that my goals for right now are horizontal income without too much work.
