I have decided that focusing on equities and passive note investing through my Solo401K is the most suitable approach for me at this time.

Any MF that goes on the market that is priced where there’s a little meat for an investor lasts less than 48 hours before it’s snapped up.

Thanks again and feel free to dm me here or call me at the office I'd be happy to talk any time if your open to it! 

There doesn't seem to be alot of meat on the bone. 

Yes, you are correct.Being in a Rural area, I am finding that DSCR doesn't seem to be an option for me at this time.

Right now you're earning 5.14% interest on your money, and you pay income taxes on every bit of that $1800 per year.Meanwhile, I won't even consider a rental property unless it pays me at least 10% cash-on-cash return and a minimum of $250+ in monthly cash flow.

Will they pay $500, and $100 will be paid to me at escrow?

In San Diego it tends to be on the lower side, this is because much of the value of our homes is in the structure and land, things that are not going to benefit from the rapid depreciation.If you would like more elaboration reach out to me at any time!

How can the Pro be any better and what would make me want to pay more? 

I got the impression it was a Fannie thing, not an individual investor thing, but I haven't probed any deeper with him yet.
