for me, the ones that cashflow the most are the ones that I bought with 3% long term debt, they were new (low maintenance) and they are in high appreciating areas(just a bonus but does not impact cashflow).

If there is no debt service probably 30% is still going of the rent is still going to operating expenses which means that you only made about 480k or so. 480k rents + 800k property is the same 1.3million roughly.

@Eli Fazzojust curious - i am assuming your NY rentals have debt on them. 

More properties but more debt. 

It's very easy to make one tiny, minor assumption to fill in an unknown that completely changes the context and consequently the answer - I've caught myself doing this a few times.As far as the legal responsibility for the debt goes with Subject To, my guess would be that the contract basically provides a pathway for the seller to pursue the buyer for recourse related to losses they suffer from the default of the original loan, like a form of indemnification, but does not absolve the seller of responsibility for the debt.

This was last year and shows the balance to be about $8000 What kind of debt is it? 

My occupancy rate is probably as good as anyone, and one thing I do is never have a high debt load then turn that around and award my tenants with rental rates they can't match elsewhere. 

They had exhibited the desire to pay down debt and had cashed out the parks before us that had agreed to owner finance.

The requirement to do this generally involves an experienced GC signing on the borrowing entity as a 20+% owner thus making them a signatory on the loan and responsible for the debt which in most cases is not very easy to find.
