First Purchase 3/1 SF in SW OKC/Moore

Greetings, I purchased my first rental property a few months back and wanted to get your thoughts/feedback. It was originally listed at $84k but purchased at $74k. Home had all new flooring and kitchen and bathroom were completely remodeled. I had renters pretty much lined up and showed them the place the day we closed. Rent is $850/month and my monthly mortgage payment, interest, taxes, and insurance are $618.99 (on a 15 year Am) leaving me with roughly $231/month cash flow. I plan on managing the property myself. The home is in a desirable suburb of Oklahoma City with a solid school district. The neighborhood is old (home was built in 1964) and I don't figure will have much appreciation or at least not significant. I'd like your feedback though. Obviously I've already purchased the property so no going back now. I'd like to know what I possibly missed though so I don't make a mistake on the next purchase. If you need any other details let me know!

I should also add I put 20% down and the home is about 5 minutes from my primary residence. I'm very familiar with the area and it is convenient to drop by/check it out whenever I need to.
