The scratches all but vanished, dents blended in and looked natural (these are older properties, so the "aged" look is very acceptable), and everything was renewed.

But, please for the love of all that is wholly do not use brown or black.Everything else should be white or slightly off white to help the brick blend in.

That way your BLENDED interest rate for the 75% first, and 15% second maybe still around 5%.

I will look into that option, I think it would blend in well.

Like you said, it can get very complicated very fast, and that's when mistakes happen (faulty logic, bad formulas, circular references, etc).If you're analyzing a portfolio or how a potential property might fit into your portfolio, or if a single investment requires that rigorous level of analysis (multiple scenarios, blended scenarios), you might need something more complex.  

Our business model supports having a healthy blend of both: 1) Properties we own - allowing us to create value through equity and 2) properties that generate passive income for us would the financial strains of ownership.We just acquired a SFH 2 weeks ago.  

If this is NNN 12,000 a month and you paid no expenses then you would be at 144,000 a year NOI.144,000 / 2,500,000  = 6% cap rateIf you put 25% down and get a rate in the 4's fixed with a 25% year amort. you are likely cash flowing only single digits.Would have to know how much rent increases per year for the blended cap rate over time.For example:Year 1 cap is 6.5, year 2 after 2% increase is 6.7, year 3  6.9 cap etc.I didn't run the actual numbers for this.You do not want short term bank debt of 5 years because if you refi in year five instead of selling and interest rates have moved to 6 you could almost be cash flow negative.
