If you are trying to cut corners on materials & finishes, skipping code requirements and generally hacking a house to squeeze out profit...my advice is to invest in the stock market and not real estate.I personally have seen downtown high rise condos literally double in value after rehab largely because many are decked out like its 1985.

i dont see capX. vacancy, the annual repair number seems quite low thats only $71/year per unit, as does grass and snow you have only $55.50/mo. i doubt that covers one snowfall or grass cutting per month , you will also have garbage service you need to pay for, and if the city requires you to pay for Fire inspections, or licensing being commercial they can, as well as sprinkler system and fire extinguisher contracts, common area cleaning and maintenance, and Management. im probably missing something here yet. so rents average $500/mo fully occupied?
