Hey Chris,Welcome to BP, there is a great forum on the 2% and 50% rules that should help you get perspective on if this is a good deal for you:http://www.biggerpockets.com/forums/88/topics/13335-5-rule-and-the-2-ruleThese are just general guidelines but a good way to make sure you play it safe the first time out.
