They're legitimate factors and expenses that must be included in any NOI calculation.Unless you're a sell side agent and want to play with the numbers to make it seem like the property cash flows when it really doesn't.

Although based on my research too, being a loan officer is very time consuming too.

However, for any SFR and duplex, a residential lender will value the property based off the sales comp approach, just an FYI!

Parking, visibility, side of street, customer demand, visibility, etc all play a bigger role, since businesses are revenue generating first and foremost.  

Currently focused on equity plays locally, and cashflow plays out of the state. 

I've recently had the roof replaced and fully updated the common areas.Here's a breakdown of the situation: The units are currently marketed as furnished rentals (cashflow well), and based on the current income of the 4 units I own, I anticipate that all 6 units combined will gross $182,400 annually.

While I am not based in KC I am familiar with the area investment-wise. 

I'm going to play the devil's advocate--I think we're going to hit a ceiling.

approx 50% depreciation on income, tax return income amount 70k. is that based on leverage?

For myself, I think my ultimate goal is to have an alternate cash flow to offset my dependence on a day job, which would allow me to choose a job I enjoy rather than have to find a job based on salary and ultimately allow me to travel with family more and enjoy life rather than stress about money.Thanks in advance and hope to connect and gain wisdom!
