Care to help a newb analyze some numbers?

Hi all,

I am starting to analyze some numbers, but quite frankly, I don't know where to start. 
Anyone care to help a girl out?

I'm looking at a house (on the MLS). It's a 3/2, 1,677 square feet in a good area of town, selling for $167,000. It's got a $750/yr HOA. All carpet.
I see another 3/2 house on the street rents for $1,300 a month. It's 1,460 square feet.  Carpet/wood or laminate mix. 

A 1,664 sq/foot, 3/2 house rents for $1,400. Carpet/wood or laminate mix.
