Would love to connect and chat on this more.

I intend to continue to scale a bit in this area, but eventually I'd like to either sell or hire someone to manage everything.

Cash on cash describes how much cash a rental property is putting in your pocket on an annual basis divided by the cash you took out of your pocket to buy it. 

If I had to leave a takeaway from this post before getting too far in it would be that whatever goals are had you have, we have these goals for a reason and typically it does not go exactly as planned but even if it doesn't go as planned, we can pick up where we left off and give it a fresh start.

So, your focus may need to pivot from high rental cash flow to little to no cash flow as a rental with an appreciation upside.I would recommend taking your $150K to $200K and securing a solid equity position in something that will cover its expenses and maybe provide a small cash flow, but then is poised to appreciate nicely over the course of the next several years.
