Are my expenses too high

I've been using the following template to evaluate houses (thanks to whoever uploaded it).  I run admittedly pretty conservative numbers on both sides.  Also, I plan to self-manage but I want to stress test each property as if it were being managed so that I can step away some day.  This is just a sample of a house I looked at but it is indicative of the problem, nothing seems to cash flow.  Are my expense numbers too high or am I just finding "deals" that aren't really deals and I just need to keep looking?  Please give me your honest opinions about the numbers and the evaluation.
