I ate a lot of Ramen Noodles for sure and got down to single digits in the checkbook but I paid everyone. 5 (My favorite part).

I'm located in Los Angeles, CA, or more specifically, Cerritos, CA, and my background is digital marketing.

Downtown and North Dallas are very competitive right now, and returns are in the single digits (for Class B properties).

So a waste of my time to go check something that was not broke.I now have a WiFi hot water heater and can check it remotely.I also have security cameras and WIFI thermostats so I can remotely monitor a lot.

Looks like the property is initially cash-flow-negative, doesn't turn positive until somewhere between year 5 and year 10, and doesn't see a double-digit cash-on-cash return until year 30.Although Rentometer can sometimes over-estimate, it does say that the median rent for a 3-bedroom in that area is $1,600:If we make an optimistic assumption that you can achieve Rentometer's median rent rate for all 3 of your units, that at least gets us to positive cash flow territory. 

Since roots are a bigger issue in California I did have a sewer camera inspection (clay pipes). 

(Due to pending legislation)For houses that have been vacant for an extended time, camera the sanitary and storm sewer lines. 

However, the month’s prior to COVID-19, I was noticing a transactional trend where buyers were acquiring at cap rates in the high single digits.

And of course, with a 14-unit complex, investing a few hundred dollars in a hard-wired camera and DVR setup is also a very wise idea, so put a camera on that door or that overhang. 

Thanks Kyle, I have already looked at SimplySafe and thought they only had WiFi camera’s.
