Anne Murray is planning to buy a rental property, in addition to the family home she and Henry own. She is considering a property in Bristol costing 310,000. She has savings of 85,000 which she will use as a deposit but will need to borrow the remaining amount for the purchase. She has had a fixed-rate mortgage agreed in principle by Royal East Bank, for which she will be charged 4.75% interest.

She wants to know what income she might expect to get on her investment. Local agents have estimated that the monthly rent may be 1,450 per month, with agents fees for managing the property being charged at 5% of the rent.

Provide Anne with an estimate of the relevant costs of renting the property and the net rental income that she might expect to get. Anne has estimates for some of the other costs she will incur as follows:

Repairs and maintenance per year	700
Property insurance per year	395
Mortgage arrangement fee	1950
Surveyors fees	350
Solicitors conveyancing fees	1050
Gardener	870
