The basic numbers are this.Original cost $82000 current value $150000.Comp Rent is $1074Mortgage is $450.01Insurance is $31.33Tax is $75.85I will be doing the property management so that I learn more about that side of the business and save on that additional expense.  

Basically the quicker I can pay back the local bank the better so I can do more deals.Any guidance is greatly appreciated!
