Keep in mind you are a real estate INVESTOR, not a Property collector.Second, you have to flip your cash from one property into the next, with each flip increasing the dollars you have to advance. 

I think he might just increase his insurance liability coverage per property.

Hello Shawn,Congratulations on going under contract.I do not quite understand your question, but if you are asking how to increase cash flow:1) Find out how much tenant is paying in rent.2) Run a rental market comps and find out what is market rent.3) If there is a difference between 1 & 2, then present that to the current tenant and offer them slightly below market rent if you would like to keep them rather then having your property sit on market for 30-45 days to get it rented. 

Roof on one of our SFH was $7800 this year. 7800/20yr/12mo = $32 per monthTo keep it real you have to look at rent increases that average 3-5% per year so your cash flow changes over time.To compare this fairly you have to remember that many multi-family have an HVAC unit per apartment so you don't get to escape that expense.

@Michael Smythe Hi like I previously mention I buy fakes and sell houses I will like to have more options to buy to increase my portfolio on properties and continue forward

I worked with Taz to help get favorable terms to increase cash flow and get a decent rate.

I think there is greater value in more doors though, so findings something like a 2-4 unit property, where you will live in one unit and rent out the remaining units likely would allow you to live cheaper as their is more opportunity to increase cash flow.

I was tending to make decisions based on how much “net income” was produced rather than increases in my wealth, or estate value.  

The question is what kind of tenant's are attracted to your location?

So those saying prices are increasing, it must be their specific market for these types of assets as nationally this is not the case.2.
