You won't likely find anything on the market that will cashflow day 1 other than some off market deals I'm working on where seller has super low assumable interest rates which allows buyer to cashflow right away.Cash flow is only one part of the overall return in real estate and should not be used as the only measurement of something being a good deal or not which many seem to do, especially those looking in markets throughout the US and trying to find cashflow. 

And 36 Other Key Financial Measures by Frank Gallneili.There are others out there and inumerable ways to look at it. 

Any system with that many variables could be upended by the flap of a butterflies wings.All that being said long term trends like global warming (please don't start a debate) can be seen clearly by measuring consistent changes.

Can you measure it, lol.

And going a step further, I have noticed many persons speaking recently of the housing market in terms as if housing value are a static measure across time of which the market can over or under price.

It's a good reminder, especially for folks that want to invest turnkey that there are still due diligence measures you can take even if you're not in the city (call city planning/development), check crime stats, check with other investors in the area, etc.With that said, how did you land on Montclair if you didn't perform any due diligence on the area and it wasn't your backyard?

If you're looking to build a real estate portfolio as quickly as possible, CoC returns is probably the better metric to use.Ultimately, I think compounded ROE is what really drives/measures wealth creation, but when first starting out, maximizing CoC can help you grow more quickly.

Only caveat is I think they measure this against the property the ADU is being built on vs another property such as an investment rental.

You will have to handle frequent check-ins and check-outs, provide amenities, manage cleaning services, and handle any issues that arise on a short turnaround.Pricing: Short-term rentals generally can command a higher price per night compared to monthly rentals, but the occupancy rate can vary depending on seasonality and other factors.Security: You'll want to consider investing in good security measures like smart locks, security cameras, and an effective vetting process for guests.Wear and Tear: STRs can cause more wear and tear on your property because of the frequent turnover.
