I ran the numbers based upon a $120,000 purchase price with $105 HOA fee;  plugged in for vacancy & repairs (5 % each) and capex (8 %) it will cashflow $240/month.   

A contract was signed, the MOA recorded, inspections ongoing, but no deed has been recorded.

@Jim DeshlerJim, I ran in to the same problem, almost.

The purpose is to help consolidate your on-going property-related tasks in one view. 

ALWAYS call the previous landlord and even better to call the previous 2 as the current may sugar coat things to get rid of them and pass the buck...One phone call to current landlord and you would have avoided this issue....I learn expensive lesson this time.When I screen tenant, she did not have history of eviction.I think it is ongoing eviction process previous place too;not finalized it yet. lawyer assistance found out and let me know today.very shocking and hope tenant moves out soon.

If you can get the same/similar education for 1/2 the price in your own state then go for it otherwise if you’re set on going to Cal Poly find a way to make it work!

Haha I ran out of my free rental property calculator uses .

So, basically those are the numbers I'm using to evaluate if my time is being well spent, given my other options - which in my case might be things like pursuing other business directions, leisure time, or going back to the W-2 work of engineering (or trying something different).The ongoing cash flow from renting the places out can add additional value, but the way I think of that, I'm more interested in evaluating the needed ongoing time commitment to servicing those rentals to produce that income/free cash flow. 

I ran all the numbers through a program called DealCheck and that was giving me the loss of investment information.

I ran the numbers with the Trulia estimated property taxes for my area.
