We are looking to purchase a duplex in the 100-200k range and want a CoC return of around 8-12%.

I have seen areas like Cleveland with COC ranging from 10-18%, while Columbus has around 8-12% with strong growth potential.

You can buy duplexes from $100-$200k range with COC ranging from 10-18%.

With respect to Tenant's back grounds, pets, rental history, job status etc etc we are always looking to learn but feel that aspect is strung and thorough.

@Kevin Sobilo I do grately respect your response but trying to stick to my questions. 

A cost segregation study is a strategic tax planning tool that separates the assets that have a shorter useful life and can be depreciated over 5, 7 and 15 years from the residential rental property or nonresidential real property that are depreciated over 27.5 and 39 years, respectively.

At that time, I think you may want to be more in the $1,900ish range.

You could figure out roughly what range the properties you would be targeting would cost and use your own assumptions to come up with something similar.

Assets identified in this study include:Kitchen Appliances: Refrigerator, microwave, garbage disposal, range hood and dishwasherLaundry Appliances: washer and dryerElectrical and communication systems: Specialized equipmentCustom Cabinetry, Countertops and shelvingInterior Finishes: wood flooring, carpet, and decorative light fixtures.61.64% of the total depreciable basis was classified as 27.5-year class life.

@Jared W SmithWith all due respect to Architects; setting a standard percentage of cost based on construction cost is not good pricing for customers.
