Once you're ready for the next purchase, you will have more experience, systems, and the confidence to tackle a bigger project.

I could see a value-play here for monthly financial reporting, if not handled directly through PM systems.

Growing massively! 

Every system you try will have flaws, or you may salivate over a feature that appears in other software.Some familiar names are mentioned frequently: Stessa, Apartments.com, RentRedi, TenantCloud, Innago, RentManager, Avail, Rentec Direct, Doorloop, etc.I recommend conducting thorough research on each app online to understand their offerings, pricing, etc.

It's important to note that interest rates for land loans may be higher than those for residential homes.Utilities and Access: Many rural lots in Fairbanks are off-grid, so buyers should consider whether they need to drill a well, install a septic system, or bring in electricity.

Is it the entire system that needs to be replaced? 

Remember, no system is perfect, so avoid the temptation of constantly chasing after the next shiny object.

Calvin Lee,You won't really find a 7 cap Dollar General in a strong suburban to urban core location unless limited years remaining on primary lease term and mostly cash deals or very small financing.The brand new Dollar Generals with upgraded construction all around in strong suburban to urban core areas tend to sell for 5.75 to 6.4 caps with new leases in place.The 7 cap new Dollar Generals tend to be in crap areas weak suburban to rural and cheap construction and many times on septic systems instead of county or city sewer.Every once in awhile in a strong location there might be a 7 cap with 10 years left on a high end Dollar General at 3 million in price or up.These have no rental increases in primary lease term so year over year your income dollar becomes worth less and less.

Of course capex does come into play, but I have a lot of factors on my side including most major components of the property have been replaced already, including roof replaced 2 years ago, water heater replaced 3 years ago, full house was just repiped, septic system is 5 years old, HVAC system replaced in last 7 years, i do not cover appliances with warranty in my rentals, and the tenant I placed in the property is a single dude who works 60 hours a week and just needs a place to sleep.

It requires a lot more work, follow up, and it's necessary to have systems in place to support the tenant vetting, rent collection and creating lease agreements.
