That's not to say there isn't a very specific definition of ROI, but what ROI is telling you may not be exactly what you want to know.There are lots of specific return metrics -- cash-on-cash, IRR, return on equity, etc -- that can be used to evaluate the financial performance of a deal, and it's up to you to determine what metrics you care about and what you're trying to optimize for.I would recommend getting familiar with several different performance metrics, figure out what information each is conveying about the performance of the property, and then use the one(s) that are providing the information you really care about.

To self manage 5-6 units while you work full-time is optimal IMO.

The bad news is, we are struggling with determining the optimal kitchen layout/design.
