LOOKING TO PURCHASE FIRST MULTI FAMILY RENTAL PROPERTY, IT WILL BE A THREE FAMILY, WHAT AMOUNT OF POSITIVE CASH FLOW SHOULD I BE LOOKING AT PER MONTH IN ORDER TO MAKE THIS DEAL WORK. THIS WILL BE MY FIRST RENTAL PURCHASE.

THANK YOU, JIM

Jim,

Shut off your CAPS it’s hard to read.

After vacancy factors, expenses, including reserves for replacement and mortgage payments I like to see a cash flow of at least $400 to $500 per month that goes into my pocket on a three unit.

And before buying I run the numbers over and over again verifying them to ensure I have this cash flow.

Good luck.
