Wherever this may be, learn how to value properties based on its income stream. 

Obviously the property itself generates a income from the tenant but additionally there is a income stream generated from the equity in the property itself.If this property was 100% financed the cash flow would be X, if bought with cash the cash flow would be XX.

But your quick return of principal allows your investors to enjoy owning an income stream into which they have virtually no money invested. 

There are certain situation - such as if it were new or substantially renovated, but not yet in service - that it could be valued by the cost method.When determining the revenue of the business, generally ancillary revenue streams are not included, unless they are significant to the business.  

Hey @Robert EllisI'm still rather new to most of the REI stream.

PMs or owners should be doing better, since they are getting a cut and have more motivation to get it rented(they have a continuing income stream).If the homes are primarily on the MLS, you may want to get an agent to represent you as a renter. 

I was concerned about basing my  entire revenue on one stream.

It sounds like to me you are selling the real estate and the property.Typically owner finance deals many get tired of the income stream and want the money now.

Used predominately for newer buildings (improvements) which may or may not have yet entered active use.Income capitalization approach - this approach capitalizes the income stream produced by a commercial/investment property.  

Multiple Revenue Streams - this is what successful people have.
