I ran an analysis on income ratios in Charlotte and the surrounding areas.

I ran the numbers and it shows the cash flow in a negative which is obvious because I’m not renting out the one side I would be living in it.

Just for fun, I ran the math to figure out your "break evendown payment" for this property and you would need to put down around 25% to not loose money (using the math above).

Hello, I have a potential seller but the problem that I ran into was that there is no water or sewage.

I bought one in the hood a few years ago that looked like a home run on paper when I ran the numbers.

I ran into a man who owns a solar company, after looking at a potential contract offer of $1000 per acre per year for 30 years, we shook hands and parted ways.

I almost gave it a try and invest elsewhere, but when I ran the numbers and looked at history, it just makes more sense to invest here. 

@Trey Leigh I ran your numbers above and get an estimated internal rate of return of nearly 15%.

This is what I know so far:Property: Duplex 3/1 each sideestimated sq ft: 2070Asking: 31,000 (multiple offers and was told that property may sell anywhere between 45k-50k so I ran analysis for 31k AND 45k)Gross monthy rent: $800 per side, total $1600taxes: 2975Closing costs: 2500 (as suggested by the BP property analysis calculator: how do I determine a more accurate amount based on property to property characteristics?)

I ran the address into Hotpads.com...
