I have properties that range from about 40-62.5%, it's all property dependent with rental price being the biggest factor... higher rents, lower expense %... that $4k HVAC costs the same wether the place rents fro $1k a month or $500 a month, but you're looking at 4 months vs 8 to pay for it. 

@Mike Robinson - Some thoughts on those lower priced MFH's we were discussing.

The deductions simply lower your taxable income. 

In the most recent past, the Reg A+ REITs from Fundrise and RealtyMogul have had yields in the higher single digits, while according to Investopedia, ETF REITs have had yields in the lower single digits.

My question is if buying points for a lower interest rate on a traditional-financing loan has any $ advantages for an investment property.

In many real estate markets multi family price per square foot is lower than attatched single family price per square foot.

If you have lower return targets than I do, then perhaps there are lots of properties that generates ok returns. 

Should we try to ask for lower maybe $50,000 since there are so many costs, walk away, go ahead at $70,000?

So I shot for lower profit margins and was willing to be a little less picky on the property and it's location.
