Especially in this day and age with all this information online.

The age and potential maintenance costs of those units worry me a bit, though.

If she is under age 59 1/2, then an addition 10% penalty.  

@Robert Kirkley, when I was your age, I would play this game to further squeeze my expenses down: when ordering fast food, I’d find what I want on the menu, subtract a dollar from that total, then use that amount to order something else.

I've always been interested in Finance (especially in Hedge Funds) starting at the age of 15/16 years.

welcome to the wonderful world of making money in Baltimore real estate, I am 77 years old and started investing in houses when I got out of the Army in 1962 at age 20, well I should say that I started taking real estate courses, most of them were rip offs, but I learned some valuable lessons, like "Don't put a label on yourself, like "Wholesaler, flipper" etc. just be yourself.

I wouldn't rely on the 50% rule as the expense ratio can vary - I've seen anywhere from 30% - 60%+ all depends on the product type, class, age/quality/condition, market, who pays utilities, etc.Generally speaking for B/C product built in the 60'-70's and 70+ units I've seen expenses range from $3,700-4,500/unit per year.

Find similar properties (what we call comps or comparables) based on square footage, lot size, bedrooms, bathrooms, age, etc. and use those as your ARV.Networking within a group is great, but ultimately the numbers you're analyzing will come from experience and will be situational (every deal is different).
