Quote from @Geeta Bihari: Cash flow will be a function of how much money you put down/amount of leverage you use. 

It’s mostly about safety (no peeling paint, working smoke detectors, no broken windows, functioning HVAC/plumbing/electric).

Definitely a framer function... 

I always focus on exit mechanics: rights of first refusal that actually function on a timeline, an appraisal method everyone accepts in advance, and a pre-agreed path to sell or buy out without torching value.

Those kinds of automations are functional, respectful, and usually welcomed.But when it comes to things like community updates, lease violations, or sensitive tenant communication, it’s easy to go too far.

Improve the lookup function.  

The latest (a large management company) just quoted me $5460 to paint an 800 sw ft unit, $770 for an apartment that was just done and is great shape, $2600 on cleaning and $2,160 to replace a functioning water heater that’s 5 years old.  

A mini split is ideal, but even separate baseboard controls will keep tenants comfortable.I’d keep the rehab clean, durable, and functional.

Cash flow is a function of leverage terms in the deal.
