People starting out usually are more interested in cashflow while someone already wealthy may be more interested in appreciation plays and debt pay down as a means of long-term profit with tax advantages.Personally I disagree that "appreciation" is what makes you wealthy.  

Idea would be to sell off the low ROE properties and funnel the profits into paying down those that cash flow better. 

The issue I personally see is that we (Realtors) meet with sellers, show the data, and sellers tell us "Yeah, but the market is hot, so we want to maximize our profit, let's go $50-75K over your suggested price and see what happens.

Locally, I know an investor that runs a crazy profitable trailer park where he is probably pulling in a 20%+ annual return on his investment - but he has to self-manage because no one will touch it, collects rent and deals with evictions armed, and has several "overseers" living for free on site to make sure no one burns the park down.

You can always charge an electricity fee on top of rent, might even profit off it but definitely more of a hassle.

Feel free to inquire about their staff qualifications if it's a larger organization.2.
