Real 7.74% return before costs but flagged risks need pricing in.
Why it works
7.74% return before costs — above-market
Why to be cautious
Monthly profit −$271/mo — significantly negative — real recurring drain
No rent comparables — estimate is a rule-of-thumb fallback, not market data. Verify the rent locally before offering.
