Hi, folks.
Current house doesn't suit us, so I'm just exploring all options.
Located in Dupage County, IL, a Chicago suburb, our real estate agent says it would sell for around $370K.
Rent for houses around here, unless fabulous mansion, seems to run around $2500 for this sort of house.
Monthly costs are roughly $2150 for loan, tax and insurance.
2150/2500 = 86%
2500 - 2150 = $350 gross monthly profit (before maintenance and etc.)
2500/370K = 0.675%
This is leading me to conclude that unless the damn thing just absolutely will not sell, continuing to own it and renting it out would be a bad plan. I'm right, right?
