Add up the cost of your mortgage payment, taxes, insurance, vacancy, repairs, cap ex, and management if you will use it.

What will it cost for cap ex, management (when you grow and want this), regular maintenance, taxes and insurance (if not in mortgage) vacancy allowance, eviction costs, turn around costs to make the units rerentable. 

Big thing holding me back is getting over hurdle of health insurance for my family as well as 401k.

I have attached photos of what I would consider pertinent parts of my purchase and sale contract regarding realtor liability and mediation, as well as the part on risk of loss/insurance that reads something like if there is damage that is returned to it's former condition prior to sale, the Purchaser can accept that or has the option to terminate the contract... as I was not made aware of the damage taking place, I never had the option to terminate the contract, or accept if the condition was returned to it's original form.I emailed my closing attorney and I'm waiting to hear back, as well as waiting to hear back from my realtor as they were going to contact the seller's realtor to discuss this.Is this damage something I definitely should have been informed of?

Without knowing the Tax Rates for the area of Interest, I would use $500 / Month for Taxes, and about $125 / Month for Insurance, and another $100 for MI, leaving you about $1275 for P & I (Principle & Interest).

Rent - taxes - insurance - utilities - maintenance.That's a good place to start.

I know people have done this on taskrabbit - the 'taskers' mainly do a lot of auto insurance photo-related gigs on there and so their 'taskers' would likely be able to take photos of a property/give advice on an area.

If no mortgage payments have been made since 2009 I would pad the payoff on the first by ~$650,000 plus taxes and insurance.

Also, the VA loan doesn't have mortgage insurance at all.

Cost of flood insurance would be a factor.What kinds of numbers can you offer on a property?
