First Deal Please Advise
New to investing, just purchased my first deal and think I did ok. Want some advice/feedback here. I am thinking about pulling out my equity, there is a CU around here that will do 100% LTV.
Purchase 60k
Rent: 600 + 645 = 1,245
Put 15% down
P&I = 270
Taxes = 400
Water (Tenants pay everything else) = 30
Repairs (Est) = 124.50 (10%)
Management (I manage for now though) = 124.50 (10%)
Vacancy = 62.25 (5%)
Cash flow = 233.75
Thoughts?

One thought I have is that you account for 10% for repairs but I would also strongly suggest that you account for 10% for capital expenditures. Would suck to have to replace a roof if you have not been saving for it.
