Annually, Does the higher nightly rate but higher vacancy rate push off the highest operating income? 

Quote from @Billy Smith: Having all or most of your rentals paid off is a great feeling with the cash flow rolling in .You know have a bigger shovel to buy more properties , folks get the fever want more more dam the debt full speed ahead .I read a lot saying what  is the rate of the  note ,you could deploy the money in  ,gold ,stocks etc....With just a couple rentals paid off in A -B area I put my kids though Division 1 state college.  

Since flipping income is considered active income, it combines with your W2 earnings and can push you into a higher tax bracket, so it's important to set aside funds for both the increase in income tax and self-employment taxes.

It can be done if you have the energy and drive to push forward.

With this being my first apartment deal I am more unsure about underwriting this type of deal and was hoping to get somebody who is more experience in multifamily to look at the proforma, T12 profit and loss, and rent roll to tell me if I'm missing something or to let me know of things that I should be looking out for.

My only backup plan if I can't get verified funds is to assume the worst and to drop my counter offer even lower than my original due to the risk I would be taking on, and then when I do my in person inspection try and guess what rents are fair market for the empty units, and ask as many tenants as I can what they pay in rents monthly.Seller should give you all of his bank statements for the time he owned it, plus the operating financial documents (including rent rolls)that he received when he bought.Then find an apartment broker in the area and find out about rents in the building and in the immediate area.

Your living expenses get rolled into the investment, which can offset the expense (you're paying $1300 in rent each month--including that in your calculations for either a duplex or a home with an adu may make the investment numbers work better)I would strongly encourage you to spend a lot of time figuring out how to make a house hack work for you guys.

Once you start doing deals, you can roll the profits back in to the business and start doing direct mail - I’d start with your D4$ list and then add other niche lists as your budget grows.
