Deduct NEW property taxes after you buyDeduct home insurance costsDeduct maintenance percentage, typically 10%Deduct vacancy+tenant nonperformance percentage(we recommend 5% for Class A, 10% Class B, 20% Class C, good luck with Class D)Deduct whatever dollar/percentage of cashflow you wantNow, what you have left over is the amount for debt service.Enter it into a mortgage calculator, with current interest rate for an investment property, to determine your maximum mortgage amount.Divide the mortgage amount by either 75% or 80%, depending on the required down payment percentage - this is your tentative price to offer.If the property needs repairs, you'll want to deduct 110%-120% of the estimated repairs from this amount.Be sure to also research the ARV and make sure it's 10-20% higher than your tentative purchase price.As long as the ARV checks out, this is the purchase price to offer.It is probably significantly below the asking price.

To add additional context, I would personally be more willing to sign my name onto a $6M mortgage collateralized against a $10M asset in an "A" market that has historically low vacancy rates, no deferred maintenance and is located in a stable market with a rent roll that covers the debt services and operating expenses with reasonable cushion for reserves than sign my name on a $90,000 loan collateralized against a $100K property in a C/D unstable market with high vacancy rates and where capex will disproportionately impact operations.
