BP has done such a great job of promoting SFR investing to the masses, that those masses have pushed up real estate prices to where it's now DIFFICULT to cashflow right away.Keep going, but understand you won't get rich in real estate overnight - it's a long-term wealth building strategy.For the short-term, recommend joining a few in-person investor meetings if possible, otherwise online ones.

I recently analyzed an asset of vacation cabins - where the seller would earn 23% ROI over a 5 year term.   

Quote from @Nithin Kumar: New to Phoenix and hearing a lot of places for rental investments but trying to figure out from the pro's around to find what are the areas that can break-even on a monthly basis and the areas that can show appreciation in the nearer term. planning to put down payment of 30% (~100k) Hi Nithin, I live in North Phoenix myself and would recommend anything around the Paradise Valley Mall area.

I would use an experienced broker who can shop around and help you compare best terms on a National basis.

I have a duplex that I rent out long term and cashflow $1100 a month. 

For me personally long term rentals add another layer of complexity and staff needs.

Inherently the steps are the same as if you were purchasing with financing save potentially less closing costs and ability to close sooner (if needed).The terms of your offer (ie -contingencies, closing cost splits etc) will determine what is different. 

@Tiffani HollisFor a long-term rental, I’d avoid used dishwashers entirely—repair costs and reliability issues often outweigh the savings.

Just keep in mind each persons situation is completely different and small things can make a big difference in rates, fee's points, terms, etc.
