What is the successful cash flow number for multi family success?

[Joe S.]

I have been reading post over the last number of years about why to go multifamily investing / apartments. I thought it would be great to see what the anticipated monthly cash flow after all expenses are for a successful multifamily investor. I know of a number of Investors personally that has a modest portfolio of single-family houses that is producing 12 K a month. It appears to me like some of the people flexing their investing muscles and talking big game may not be profiting anymore then the mom and pop operators that are consistently buying single-family housing.
