Try to keep utilities you pay to a bare minimum or eliminate entirely if possible. 

Can barely get a seat even 10 stops outside of Manhattan during commuting hours.

View report*This link comes directly from our calculators, based on information input by the member who posted.basically analyzed this deal best i could just started analyzing rental properties..loopnet ad barely had any info i just found some pictures on the inside and realizing that you would need more then 15k for rehab since it looks like it needs new cabinets in kitchens  would all depend on getting the deal right. ... thanks for any suggeestions and please let me knoe any good cities you guys think i should be looking at !

It could be a little higher, but im barely breaking even at that rent. 

A market that appreciates 5% annually barely beats inflation over time. 2.

IE: someone gets wiped out and cannot pay off barely any creditors.My guess is that Bear Stearns and Lehman Brothers met all their obligations until imminent doom/death, for instance.I'd like to follow this thread if it has some contributions. 

We got a qualified (barely) tenant in there last week.  

Thanks all for the advices.About why flip instead of hold, my realtor reasoning is that the pool adds to the liability when renting, and needs to be maintained properly, that's an extra cost, and given the rental rates in the area and the potential resale value, it seems like renting wouldn't provide much so much cashflow to make sense, it would barely break even or even have negative cashflow.My wife is of the same opinion, while for me renting even if it doesn't provide that much cashflow, makes more sense due the extra taxes when flipping.

I own a home in Beavercreek and I'll be selling it when I have to move in a half a year because the rents would barely cover the mortgage/taxes/insurance.

As of now the way the prices are it is a barely Break Even if i put 30% down when looking at rental cash flow.
