Even if you are not cash flowing on day one, that's okay (in my opinion), you're not paying the full mortgage on your own, which in of itself is a huge win and you learn other tangible real estate investing skills along the way by simply owning. 

What I do not control is the natural level of rents in any given market at any given time. 

I could go on and on, but suffice to say the devil is in the detail, not in the high level split.

It has 3 units, an additional dwelling unit in the garden level, and 2 garage parking spaces (which I've come to realize are quite valuable where the property is). 

Affordable relative to the rest of the US so great place to work remote or just enjoy a reasonable life without being hugely cost burdened Cons: A lot of older than 1980s construction (you 100% can be successful with these properties just have more to check during due diligence) Need to be mindful of market rents in the area and not overspend on renovations where there is not ROI to do so, you can’t usually exceed $2 sf on rental rates and average price per sf is 1.25-1.5 sf (neighborhood, unit type, and finish level specific).KC is not a boom and bust market, you don’t get the high highs or the low lows.

Like I said, I may be new but I am driven and ready to continue learning and leveling up my skill sets.  

Most of us will go even higher...say 85%...but you have to get the property to cash flow at that level.

For me, I’ve been testing a few different methods recently, but I’m always looking for new ideas to take my wholesaling game to the next level. 

OOS is risky at any level, then when you add the other variables, Sec 8, property managers, it's too rich for my blood.

Assets are performing well and hopefully in 4-6 years things will level off and we’ll see our return along the way at some point or at disposition.
