6. Financial Plan; Start-up Cost Projections:
- Occupancy Rate: 80% (This accounts for vacancies and turnover)

- Gross Monthly Revenue for Two Houses: $4,800 x 2 = $9,600
- Annual Gross Revenue: $9,600 x 12 = $115,200
- Annual Operating Expenses: $115,200 x 30% = $34,560
- Annual Net Income: $115,200 – $34,560 = $80,640
- Estimated ROI: ($80,640 / $650,000) x 100% = 12.4%
