Seller Financing Deal Analysis Help

I need some help analyzing this property in Texas. The seller is offering seller financing. Here are the #s:

Asking $129,000

2 bed 1 bath 718sqft

Everything has been updated

15% Down - 9.5% Interest rate - 30 yrs amortization, no ballon 

Rents around $1000 - 5% Vacancy - $700 Taxes yr - $741 Insurance yr - 10% Property Management - 1.5% of rent for Maintenance and 5% of rent for capital expenditures. 

Based on these numbers Cash Flow is $-252/mo 6.2% Cap and -14.2% COC

If this was a deal you were looking at, where would you want these numbers to be at to make it a win-win or would you just walk away from this opportunity? 

Looking for some help and guidance. Thanks in advance. Please reach out if you need additional info.

As pointed out above, I don't thing that you are including all of the expenses. Using general numbers the CAP rate should be 4.5% + or -. This does not sound like the greats deal. At $129k I would come in with cash and beat up the seller until the numbers worked to where I need them to be. Based on the numbers, the sellers price is too high, their interest rate is too high, rents are too low.
