Don't start adjusting what you need/want to do or your exit plan to accommodate a seller that wants more than a property is worth.  

I would caution on filling more than one position at a time giving the new hire and the organization a chance to adjust thoroughly with each new team member.

A lot of that stuff taught in school students never use in real life unless they have specific professions that require it.There are programs on the market now in Excel where they have Macro's and you simply input numbers and solve for XX return.Residential is definitely less math intensive whereas commercial where value is mostly based off of calculations it is ultra important to have at least mastered the basics.  

Doing some estimated numbers, adjusting with all three of those above and an average interest rate, at 30 years, it still doesn't cashflow much, HOA fees are at 880 quarterly. so its looking like a more of a flip kind of deal. the listing was posted just a few days ago and when visiting the property with the REA she noticed what she thought was an investor taking photos. 

Rentometer collects data on area rentals, what it doesnt do is make any adjustments for neighborhood. 

This property projected total rents of $31,380 less 5% vacancy of $1,569 per year so $29,811 adjusted gross income.

Since Zillow isn't as accurate as the MLS, I always adjusted their sold values by about 10%  - so if they say a house sold for 100k, I'd be a bit more conservative and use 90k as my ARV.  

We are not handyman by any means, as we both work in the corporate world, but we make a decent stable income and have adjusted our goals accordingly.We are particularly looking in Ohio(Cleveland and Columbus) and Indiana(Indianapolis, Noble County).
