Hello all,I am a first-time investor and found a property that gives me positive cash flow + appreciation, however, when I visited the property I saw that the property has a shared driveway with a neighboring property not kept well ( filled with garbage old cars, etc....)

Don't use a pool cover as they're all garbage, they destroy your equipment when they disintegrate, and are a pain to take off and put on. 

What about areas that were once beautiful and became garbage areas?

When the electric was turned on the garbage disposer motor was broke.

Broken Garbage Disposal, painting, new flooring, all things you will need to learn if you have an investment.Good Investing...

Some I have guessed, Some @Avery Carl (Thank you) has guided me on & Some I really don't know what they are in that area:Garbarge - $50/MonthYou don't pay extra for garbage your cleaning crew takes it with them.

Baby steps- forget all of that 10x garbage, keep doing exactly what you are doing. 

I truly appreciate the feedback and input. https://www.zillow.com/homedetails/4919-N-35th-St-Omaha-NE-68111/75838165_zpid/ Expense Montly Cost Cash Flow Cash on Cash Return Mortgage $301.53 Rent $900.00 Yearly Cash Flow $2,069.60 Taxes $136.00 Other Income $0.00 Down Payment $11,850.00 Insurance $28.00 Total Expense $727.53 17.46% Flood Insurance N/A Cash Flow $172.47 Vacancy $45.00 Yearly Cash Flow $2,069.60 Repairs $45.00 Total Cost Capital Expense $100.00 50% Rule- Cash Flow Purchase Price $79,000.00 Water Total Income x .5 - Mortgage $148.47 Purchase Closing Costs $1,500.00 Sewer Pre-Rent Holding Costs $1,200.00 Garbage 2% Test Estimated Repairs $0.00 Gas Monthly Income / Purchase Price 0.011 Total Cost $81,700.00 Electricity HOA Fees Snow Removal Loan Amount Lawn Care Cost $79,000.00 Property Management $72.00 Down Payment $11,850.00 Loan Amount $67,150.00 Mortage Total $727.53 Loan Amount $67,150.00 Loan Period 30 Interest Rate 3.50% Montly Mortgage Payment ($301.53)
