Other than just going in and looking at what's on Redfin.com and using the tools on here to evaluate a deal, is there anything else I can do on here?

It's definitely important to evaluate appreciation vs cashflow.Do you mind sharing where your Arkansas deal was and how you found them?

Part of the deal, just annoying when payments don’t go through when they should and these companies are difficult to deal with (as nice as their Filipino call center employees are, I’m spending too much time on the phone with them).   

Franky,Feel free to send me an email I can help with evaluating some options.   

@Sanjeev Advani I’m not saying they’re all like this but since Circle K bought 3 local convenience stores they have never been able to staff them properly or maintain employees.

How do they evaluate deals?

I do not know enough or want to look into it.I will take this another direction though - should they actually rebuild those homes or should they re-evaluate the area and implement a plan to properly zone and master plan those areas to avoid this in the future.

Assess Your Goals and Current Structure: Beyond replacing your handyman team, it’s important to evaluate your portfolio’s current management framework and clarify your long-term objectives.How are responsibilities currently divided among you and any co-owners or family members?

It’s understandable why so many investors focus on cash flow when evaluating real estate.

For cash-on-cash evaluation of rental properties, it is critical to identify ALL of  your acquisition costs.
