Most of this stems from the fact that you went 100% LTV on the seller note so the ying to the yang of putting no money down is that you get little cash flow in the first few years. 

But that said, keep in mind that investing in real estate is only partly investing in a location and an asset per se, and is largely about running your own business... the results you will experience will stem more from how you run your business than anything else in most cases... so get scrappy and become your own expert, and DEFINITELY be careful about whose advice you trust, especially if the advice-giver stands to make a buck off of you!

Recently I quit using cannabis. 

It does not matter what the pictures show on the outside of the stem wall.
