Sounds like you have a good head about the numbers you'll need to look for in the right property - you'll often hear "analysis paralysis" thrown around a lot with new investors... so long as you're doing your research ahead of time and you have your connections/network laid out (i.e. realtor/contractor/lending) then there isn't any reason you shouldn't pull the trigger when the numbers work.The important part will come when you turn over your investment to your boots-on-the-ground team who will be responsible for making your project move forward - making sure you're using licensed, insured, and fully vetted contractors will ensure that your money is being appropriately to protect your investment and to reach that projected ARV - the effort should be focused on maximizing your ROI so you can keep your momentum going!

You need to develop policies that ensure luck is not part of the equation. 

Also when dealing with professionals that are going to make your investment the best it can be I always ensure I pay them their value however it is a two way street and you must have expectations for them to deliver as well.

Ensure there is no penalty for early payoff.
