here are the best cap rate rentals in the USA
Im looking at retirement income and want to get the most for my investment on a regular basis without too much work, so Id use a manager. Any suggestions on where I can get 10% cap or better in a reasonable area?

Beg to differ. Math is Math and the numbers do not lie.
The CapRate (NOI / Purchase Price) is always valid. Is it commonly applied to SFRs and 1-4 multis - - no, but the evaluation is STILL CORRECT. Both NOI and Purchase Price are B L I N D as to what kind of property is being evaluate. IMO, hard numbers (those you can verify) are never a scam.
