Inherited tenants increase risk, as they were not screened by you.

Zillow estimates an 11% increase in home value.

Note that this is a low income rental in a C-class neighborhood that is beginning to gentrify but still has a few years before it attracts very well qualified tenants. 

I enjoy my profession but i am very interested in trying to increase income without having to work more.

I have already got notifications from vendors to expect price increases starting Oct 1st, 2018.This will have an impact of all aspects when flipping, renovating and maintaining rentals. 

I have bought, held and sold over 20 SFH and duplex units in my previous real estate "life" as it were.I realize that analysis paralysis can be very real, even more so for someone like myself that needs to see numbers that I find attractive and reasonable. 

Focus more on building personal savings and increasing income (is there a possibility of picking up a part time job?)

Once you are certain about the numbers on it and it’s truly a great investment, go back and increase the HELOC you already have and use those funds.

I'm also actively networking with others to increase my funds/passive income by partnering in deals, providing income, working extra, whatever I can do.The point of all this is that I am approaching it like a business.

But once you say yes, if you have chosen a company that uses bad marketing data to attract clients - you could be in trouble!
