However, I think a potentially serious logic error make be in the Wholesaling Calculator (which is needed and should be maintained).For example a rental wholesale can be measure by any one of the following:- Cash-on-Cash (cash purchase)- Cash-on-Cash (loan purchase)  **note: I have not figured out a logical approach to this one yet- Cap Rate-with-Purchase (NOI, 50%-Rule for expenses, and market rent [cash purchase])- Cap Rate-with-Loan (NOI, 50%-Rule for expenses, market rent, Cap Rate, and debt coverage [leveraged purchase])I have a rudely designed spreadsheet to do all three (3).

Cash flow, appreciation and loan pay down seem to be touted as positives.

So minus $250 (we are able to suck it up for now) still positive $220, just don't see it until we sell it, I suppose.

In exchange for his expertise and consultation on the deal, I offered him a position!

One thing that may work well for you if you are in a position to do so is the house hack.

I am trying to evaluate a potential project and I have positive cash flow, however when I look at 50% rule it's negative.

I have my license in OR & WA, a W-2 position, and I help others as I am available.

I would like to discuss the GC position in detail when you have a moment. 

This can allow you to sell an asset, improve your personal balance sheet and/or be in a better position to get conventional financing.
