.$450K purchase price, 25% down...30 year fixed rate mortgage at 5% on $337,500 is $1,812 per month...So if you have zero vacancy you'll break-even on the mortgage...And then burn money on maintenance, cap-ex (likely very limited), any vacancy, property taxes, insurance, etc.Consequently, you really, really, REALLY need that home price to go up. 

One girl has credit score of 400, her supposed boyfriend has credit score of 650, 2 other adults will also be moving in with them, which is the height of our limit of 4 people per room, I don't know the other 2 credit scores yet but of course I'll screen.
