Hi all! I'm looking into my first real estate rental property deal and this one looks very appealing to me. This is what I know so far:

Property: Duplex 3/1 each side

estimated sq ft: 2070

Asking: 31,000 (multiple offers and was told that property may sell anywhere between 45k-50k so I ran analysis for 31k AND 45k)

Gross monthy rent: $800 per side, total $1600

taxes: 2975

Closing costs: 2500 (as suggested by the BP property analysis calculator: how do I determine a more accurate amount based on property to property characteristics?)

Estimated Repairs: 20k 

ARV: 75k

Down payment: 25%

Interest rate: 4.5% 

30 year fixed

I am estimating Vacancy, repairs and maintenance, cap Ex, property management all 10% EACH

How does this look to you guys?
