Well because I could not commit to acquiring my first property with the remaining time in the year, I’ve committed to analyzing 2 deals a day to post on the forums here.It will allow me to gain knowledge and advice from experienced investors and also give other investors like myself (or soon to be investors I guess) an opportunity to contribute as well.Even if they haven’t done any deals, they may know how to avoid common mistakes while analyzing that they’ve learned since they’ve started on their path to REI.I know it may not be much, but I’m really hoping that others in my position feel inspired to contribute more than the normal “Hi I’m a new investor looking to learn from everyone here on the site” and those more experienced are still willing to share their experiences.Thanks everyone.With that being said:Property #12-unit Property in Queens, NYEach unit is a 2br/1baAnticipated gross rents: $3.8k/moOperating expenses (per month):- Vacancy: $190- Repairs/Maintenance: $35- Taxes: $300- Insurance: $133.33- Property Management: $190 (did this at 5% of gross rents because I can manage the property myself but I’d like to set aside a portion in case it makes sense to transition to management).

if the building was built as 2 separate units, then the process should not be all that complicated... but that is all relative.
