I have been looking at Norada real estate and Roof stock and find their cash flow numbers differ greatly.

We've all been there; it's okay, but you ask about housing markets like it is picking stocks.

HD for example has a program where they will set up shelving, provide labeled/bar-coded bins, stock specific items that you choose, and check / restock to specified levels periodically.

This helps reduce operational costs and increase efficiencies, hopefully giving the landlord back time to spend on other areas of the business.Market Trend Predictive Analytics: There are AI algorithms that can analyze large amounts of data in order to predict property values and future market trends.

@Cliff Mccue I don't know a single person that has bought a company specific stock without knowing something about the company. 

I gave an interview to Axios last December where I predicted that average commission rates were likely to go higher due to due to the likely outcome of the class action suit.Sure enough, a settlement was announced months later, and sure enough average commissions rates have been inching higher, and will continue to do so. 

Here's a roleplaying softball, look forward to your home run:I'm a newer investor and I noticed that these properties have cap rates listed right on them, and a higher cap rate is a higher return, google told me that cap rate is the same as ROI on the stock market.

Admittedly I am a tracker and love to analyze mundane things like burn down rates to predict when I need to bring more supplies to the property.  

I am debating if I should sell my 2 houses and just move the move into syndications or stock market.

If cash flow is your top priority, Cleveland's reliable rents and predictable income could be a strong contender.
