I would add anyone who thinks RE is always a terrible investment might be the worst person to analyze the deal at all, whether they are the President of a firm or not.

When I immigrated to the US many years ago I made sure my doc's were always under control all the time, and you would do the same.I understand..I would not post here if I did not have my doubts..A lot of red flags..The worst of all I also have a property manager who is just giving me the facts but no recommendations.I had  thought that would be their job as I am new to this.Looks like I am screening the renter by myself.. 

Hoping for the best but worst case we overpay but better now than on a more expensive project.

My goal is to house a section 8 tenant to lower the likelihood of vacancy, but still factor in the worst case scenario.

Utah has one of the highest/worst rent ratios of any state.

Some more to add would be Property Tax while you own it Insuarance- you will need to have with any loan .HOA fees if applicable.Utilities if applicable.Rehab Budgets almost always go over and take longer.Sales usually take longer and go for less than the estimated ARV.And if your using a broker take deduct their fees and the selling closing fees from your estimated sales price.Just leave yourself a nice margin at every level , the worst case you’ll make more than you over budgeted , or walked away from a deal that likely wasn’t that good to start.Best of luck.

Owning and maintaining property takes money, as big ticket items can happen at any time and usually happen at the worst possible time thanks to Murphy’s law.

Ontario is already one of the worst provinces to be a landlord, I can only imagine during a lockdown.. 

I am graduating college in a few weeks into, perhaps, one of the worst times to get into real estate (lol).

You could probably use the 4 bedroom FMR from HUD as your worst case scenario.
