You are buying a turn-key rental which is why the returns look terrible. The house is nicely rehabbed and you are paying full-price because you are competing with owner-occupants.
In contrast, look at a house like this one. It is ugly, and priced low at $150K. Similar sized homes in that area sell in the 250K to $300K range after they are fixed up. That is a gap of $100K to $150K from ugly to beautiful house. If you can rehab the house for less than that, say $50K, you will capture equity doing the rehab and almost certainly have great cashflow.
