First rental turned out to be negative cash flowed.

Hello,

Can anyone please give this first-time landlady some advice on this issue?

I bought a turnkey from Roofstock last summer. It is out of state and I have a PM to take care of it. It's supposed to cashflow about $100/mo. But there have been a lot of fixings and left me with negative cashflow. The major fix was on the gas line, one on tub drain, and a couple minor fixes like clogged pipe.

What should I do with this property? Should I keep it and hope it would cashflow this year or plan to sell it? What would be the worst thing that could happen if I keep having negative cashflow year after year? This situation makes me nervous about rental investment now. :(
