And the best kicker is that the owner is willing to finance it with 15% down and 6% interest, which is better than any bank.So, I'll go ahead and use the formula mentioned to see what the worst case scenario would be:$800/mo x 10 homes = $96,000/year-50% Vacancy and or expenses = $48,000/year-$1900/month mortgage = $23,000/year-$250/month water = $3000/year-$110/month trash = $1320/year-$1943/year property taxes per-$1800/year insurance-----------------------------------+$96,000 Income-$48,000 vacancy/repairs-$23,000 mortgage-$3,000 water-$1320 trash-$1943 property taxes-$1800 insurance-----------------$16,937 Net Operating Income @ 50% expense/vacancyWe would have an extra $19,200 if we can keep it at 30% which we're hoping/expecting to be at on the second year after doing some improvements and getting everything rentedWe also believe this can make us look good with the bank for owning property and having cashflow to be able to get another bigger loan in the future.
