That's cash flow only. so it's apples to oranges.

I also allow my tenants to use Google Pay, Apple Pay, PayPal whatever...

If you have to go buyer leads—expect it to cost more and you’ll want to create a couple “lead magnets” like free “how to sell in 5 easy steps your house guide” or “Inexpensive upgrades for a huge ROI on house sale price” or something like that to incentive people to fork over they’re information or like your page.

You just have to line up apples to apples, so make sure those homes similarly have a significant amount of finished space below grade. 

I don’t like 1 year lease, and prefer month-to-month lease because I can kick out bad apples tenants anytime.

I look at real estate like Apple / John Deere / Disney all commodities some ay nicer dividends some have a nice run coming.

@James Wise  Per your request.Coming out of the late 1800s most of the major west coast cities that we know and love like LA  SF  PDX SEATAC were all subdivided by the same engineering firms  at least SF and Portlandia were.. this led to land speculators in the day going out into the Western deserts and other remote areas.. buying what were large land holdings , Spanish land grants and other lands that were not govmit owned.. then in the day you could simply create massive subdivisions buy doing basic surveys off of the base and meridian lines.. which all of the west is surveyed off of... this is called section land.then create these massive tracks of lots.. some were like up in the apple valley, Lancaster,  Barstow type areas mainly 5 acre tracts.. and were done on a grid pattern.. streets in ( mapped but not built)  and of course spiraled out of a small little town off the railroad track or the few roads that existed in those days.. you took your map and recorded it at the county, county was happy they just got 5 thousand lots they could send out tax bills on..

As Amazon is busy having a city selecting beauty pageant, Apple is quietly negotiating a deal in RTP, North Carolina.The Apple deal is 10,000 jobs and $2B investment.

How can you compare apples to apples that way?

You look at some of the biggest companies like Apple for instance and they borrow as much money as possible even though they have billions in the bank.
