I am very experienced in project management roles, and I am very dedicated to producing positive results. 

Suggest you post the numbers and  let us look at what you're seeing as 'marginal' - - we can help you tune your analysis to ensure a positive result.

I would pay 3 times as much to get 15 times the result, wouldn't you?

My goal is for my wife and I to purchase 3-5 income producing properties in the next 5 years.

Yes they may get orders to transfer but that is life (anyone non military could lose their job or get transferred which has the same end result for you) and they are protecting our country with little pay.  

I would like to know if anyone in the Kansas City, or Overland Park, KS area had really good result in 2015?

I own a few properties in the area just because I bought at a deep discount and they produce strong cashflows.

Credit and Liquidity Issues so when the nation's banks face a credit crunch, often caused by a higher prime rate, its profit margins and cash reserves can feel the pressure, resulting in decreased lending in the overall economy, and consumer spending. 

As a result, effective termination would occur on 30 May 2016 - which the existing landlord could do at this point without cause.

So, I am not a complete stranger to auctions, but Colorado had a public trustee system and finding reliable information on what properties were going to auction in a given week and the results of each auction was as simple as going to the county website.
