28 unit advice

This would be my first RE investment.  Long time researcher here on BP.

With 900 purchase and 180K gross rent per year (100% occupied), I was hoping for much better CoC (20-25%) but when I plugged in all the recommended % ages the CoC dropped to 8%.

Following are real numbers, taxes are high (spoken to county appraiser and tax collector), insurance is high as well, mantainance and cap ex is used from NAA 2016 survey (6.4% and 9% for garden style complex):

Also did itemized capex calculation for roof, parking lot etc + each unit with life span etc.  9% capex of gross rent and itemized almost align.

Commercial loan terms are with wells fargo for a 25 term loan, 10 years fixed and then refinance.

I am a bit concerned about commercial loan not having longer term and fixed rate, also higher interest rate.

I will create an LLC, have property damage, Liability and Umbrella insurance to protect myself.

Is the property management fair at 10%?

Should I worry about plumbing, electrical costs that might come up over the course as they are not upgraded?

Roofs are new, appliances are within 5 years.

How should I carry out inspections?  Read most of the posts but the cost seems very high for 28 units.

Anything else I should consider?
