Previous to that, 3 hard money lenders turned me down and 4 equity partners turned me down. 7 people turned down a "flip of a lifetime".I ended up convincing a retail buyer (i was an agent) to purchase it and be an investor.

A twelve unit has 144 rental months (12 units x 12 months); 10% turnover is 1.2 units per year; 1.2 units turning over annually is 1.2 units x 1 month average turn = 1.2 vacant months; 1.2 vacant months / 144 total rental months = .83%, call it one percent physical vacancy.

DFW area.Currently rented at $935/moLease ends June 1Unit in good shape but after the current tenant leaves, I could possibly improve flooring ($1,500) and counters ($500), which would increase rent to around $1,025+HOA fees of $275 (water, trash, insurance, exterior maintenance)Landlord insurance $70/moProperty taxes $80/moWe would finance 80 percent at 4.8 percent (bank has OK'd low loans)So what would you pay for this?

Leaving roughly 180,000 mortgage on the new side of the property with a possible value of 300-325,00.I guess its a long term gain or short term gain.Me im 29 years old, the town has a low vacancy rate around 1 0r 2 percent and i plan to be in the area for at least five years.What do you think?

Sounds like you're eventually going to have to come around to this situation at least a time or two in your lifetime.

Here is my analysis after watching @Brand Turners YouTube video on how to quickly evaluate a deal.Asking Price: $130,000Down Payment: 20%Remaining: $104,000Interest: 4.5% over 30 YearsFinal P&I: $526.95HOA Fee: NONERentometer has the median rental for a 3BR to be $1180 but believe you could push the envelope for $1250 - $1300 with proper tenant screening and past experience with another condo I own safely renting for more than rentometer medians.Based on %50 percent rule, 1300/2 = 650 which would make my cashflow for this property $123.05 without negotiating down.
