I don't follow how you're calculating positive cash flow given these mortgage payments and an appropriate allowance for the expenses you mention -- taxes, insurance, maintenance, capital expenditures and repairs. If you aren't intending to self-manage, you'll need to include property management as an expense as well.

@Austin Robertson your numbers look wrong. For home 2 you have debt payments of 2650 and income of 3000 so 350 for all expense outside of debt taxes and insurance but showing 200 positive a month. So 150 for repairs, vacancy, capx, or just 5% of income. 

You need to firm up your numbers and learn what the true expenses are going to be. Also your NOI is wrong or you cap rate is. But don't worry about these until you figure out your expense. If your NOI for the year is 2400 your cap rate is below 1% if its monthly NOI is the number you gave then you have more expenses there than in your cashflow numbers.

Best of luck researching.
