Basically you assume several exceedingly bad and increasingly unlikely scenarios and see what your finances would look like.For instance, look at what your numbers would be if 2,3 or 4 units went vacant and you had large capex expenses like a new roof.

For instance, the duplex next door to subject property is a 3/2 duplex no garage sold for 325k and a duplex 6/2 more than 1/2 a mile away sold for 300k.

For instance, you might have a condo that has a roof above each unit and each owner is responsible for their own roof.
