In most markets brokers and other community economic development entities produce regular reports of new projects and other commercial RE news. 

The main Safeway in the Lincoln District, on S 38th, is also rough, with a poor selection of "higher end" produce (i.e. organic) and no self check out lanes- if that gives you an indication of the level of trust they have for their clients. 

Set the ROI threshold where you desire, but realize that at less than 10% the S&P 500 has historically produced a better return.Good luck

They indicated anything that produces rents under $1000 wouldn't be acceptable. 

This is sometimes referred to as being able to sleep at night but has even deeper significance in my life because I have found it to be the best way to go through this life feeling well, strong, healthy, and with peace of mind.

There are a select number of homes in the 2 million dollar range and up that do produce positive cash flow, but those are newer oceanfront  homes with tons of amenities and upgrades and the maintenance and upkeep is brutal to keep up with the demands of that higher end rental customer. 

it was on the higher end ($365k), but with the proximity to downtown Blowing Rock, the ski slopes, and Tweetsie Railroad amusement park, (plus it has an amazing view and 3 bedrooms), I was okay with the larger investment.My plan was to take it out of it's currently rental program (which produced 46% occupancy total, with 10 months being in high demand), because I feel like them taking 25%+ is ridiculous. 

But if its already producing something just do your numbers per door will you be getting $100 per door $200 or$300.

Produced solid cash flow for the last 7 years.

Some of the byproducts of this will be financial freedom for my family and I and being able to live a more happy and healthy life.
