I just started to practice analyzing deals ( used up the free 5 trials for rental calculator, so basically made an excel using old youtube videos on the 4 block technique figuring out CoCROI. )  What i've realized for my area ( Houston, TX) is basically anything over 130k basically produces 0 or negative CoCROI because ultimately your rent is the total income you get and subtract expenses(which usually adds up to around 700-800 bucks be conservative) and your mortgage(which would be around 500-600 bucks a month for a 100k-130k loan)most of the homes near Houston average (base on craigslist, rentometer, realtor.com) 1300-1600 on rent for a traditional 3/2 SFH.

Don't try to buck the system, it's not worth it.

no way worth 1.6  I had a similar park in Vancouver WA..  44 spaces.. 7 park owned units.. but neat as a pin rents 400 bucks per space or so.. 

I'm certain I never would either.I make sure that we have the best bang for the tenants buck. 

Hook up with a great local HML in your area they are there.. and make 8 to 12% and have true passive income.. let the pros do the heavy lifting.. you keep earning the big bucks. 

In Montrose there are some patio homes renting to more mature renters but the Cash flow ROI is not there, more of a cash purchase, 1031 type of setup.

Making a couple hundred bucks in cash flow doesnt get my juices running anymore.

Reading other post they are advising people like us to do FHA financing on a duplex and earn a few hundred bucks a month until we get the hang of it.

You can try to offer an existing tenant a buy out: maybe a couple thousand bucks to move out. 

@Joshua Ferrari Yea ill wait until I'm cash flowing a lot more before I start paying the big bucks lol.
