If you can’t afford to cover the negative CF and the fact that you will certainly come out of pocket for literally all maintenance issues.  

It will run 100% negative till you move out and rent it out.

The goal is to have good tenants and never have to use the language of the lease to enforce anything negative.  

Just remember: most negative reviews are written by problematic tenants.

Risk is either positive or negative and can be borne out by the likely dispersion of returns. 

If we reference housing statistics from the U.S.

Just remember: most negative reviews are written by problematic tenants.

@Turner Wrightit seems like if you sell it at $275k, you'd be closer to break even than negative 30k. 

That is not typically done.It feels like you are trying to make a negative cashflow property become a positive cashflow property by adjusting the numbers, but I don't think you are going to get there based on this calculation.

This time, let me try to give you an answer without the "clouds" in the way.The bottom line is this...math. 1 - If you put $150k cash into a $150k property, and the property has positive CF, that property costs you $150k.2 - If you put $150k cash into a $150k property, and the property has negative CF, that property costs you $150k...plus, all the negative CF...and is a bad deal.3 - If you put $30k cash into a $150k property, and the property has positive CF, that property costs you $30k.4 - If you put $30k cash into a $150k property, and the property has negative CF, that property costs you $30k...plus, all the negative CF...and is a bad deal....but,...5 - If you put $150k into a property that only gets $1000/m in CF ($12k.yr), it will take you 12.5 years to recover your cost ($150k).
