It may not be here tomorrow, and taxes won't matter then.That said, if you're trying to estimate your future tax benefits, keep in mind these things:- depreciation is only applicable to rentals- depreciation starts when you place the property "in service," not when you buy it- depreciation increases your deductions and consequently your tax losses, but you may or may not be able to benefit from these losses, depending on your overall tax situation- if you do have room for additional depreciation, you may be able to amplify it with cost segregation (a separate topic) 

I honestly should have more money saved up considering my years of working full-time, however younger financial mistakes have been a painful lesson and I regret not purchasing a property sooner/younger.My most important and immediate goal right now is to purchase a property.I am in (what I perceive to be) a relatively high cost real estate area. 

EDUCATE YOURSELF - yes, it will take time, but will lead to a selection that better meets your expectations & avoids potentially costly surprises!

.### Calculating ROI- **Total profit (not accounting for costs like maintenance, taxes, etc.):** Total amount received - initial investment = $601,816.40 - $235,000 = $366,816.40.- **ROI over 30 years:** ($366,816.40 / $235,000) x 100 = 156.09%.### Calculating Annualized ROI (CAGR)The formula for CAGR (Compound Annual Growth Rate) is:\[ CAGR = \left(\frac{Final\ Value}{Initial\ Value}\right)^{\frac{1}{Number\ of\ Years}} - 1 \]In your case:\[ CAGR = \left(\frac{\$601,816.40}{\$235,000}\right)^{\frac{1}{30}} - 1 \]Let's calculate this:\[ CAGR = \left(\frac{601816.40}{235000}\right)^{\frac{1}{30}} - 1 \]\[ CAGR = (2.56)^{\frac{1}{30}} - 1 \]\[ CAGR \approx 1.0303 - 1 \]\[ CAGR \approx 0.0303 \text{ or } 3.03\% \]This means your annualized return is about 3.03% each year over 30 years.

After the closing cost, this home will probably cost me around 35k to purchase.I'll have 35k left to do another investment.

does this include all the expenses, capex, maint costs etc? 

The other consideration is the opportunity cost of buying just for appreciation.
