I had read that you should look for a neighborhood where there have been at least 5% of the total homes in that given area sold in the past year.

@Cloey Green, this is totally contingent on what type of deal you are doing. 

I’m also using a 6% vacancy rate, which brings the net monthly cash flow to about $200 and a CoC return of 13.06%.Summary:I’ve created around $50k in equity (difference between ARV of $200k and total investment of $155k).I’ve got about $10k or $18,385 left in the deal (factoring in closing costs).The cash flow is healthy, and the CoC return is strong, especially as a first-time investor.Questions:Does anything look off or could I improve the numbers?

I totally hear you on wanting confidence you're getting the *best* deal when there can be multiple that look good (this was actually the reason I built a tool that scans and analyzes every new property on the market so I knew I was getting the best of the best!).

Businesses with tons of cash: bars, check cashing, payday lenders, casinos, car washes, vending etc.Then the return's contents are analyzed using the Discriminate Function standards.

I have 3 rental properties (5 doors total) with M&M Property Pros.

Simply means that you live in one side, and rent the other side to help (or totally) pay off your mortgage.

Many have pulled out of insuring multifamily properties or only cover up to 4-unit buildings.While Allstate doesn’t have a unit cap, they do cap total coverage at $750K on a landlord policy—which is why I’m exploring options for supplemental coverage.The carrier raised my rate by ~86% on all three properties under this policy.

Affordability isn't a right, it can remain totally preposterous.

The program is packed full of good content which is all available for free in some way shape or form on the interwebs.
