WOW, Toledo is the future!

[Phillip Dakhnovets]

Hello, my friends,

My name is Phillip Dakhnovets, and I have recently moved with my family to the Toledo, Ohio, area. We are absolutely in love with the amazing park system, the beautiful Maumee River, and the local hospitality.

In my real estate investing career, I have been fortunate to visit and analyze properties all around the country. Like most people on this site, I opened Zillow and selected the greater Toledo area as soon as I knew we were moving here. Over the past couple of months, I drove all around the city to see firsthand how good the deals really were, and here is what I learned:

Toledo has a LOT of investment property deals. I thought the 1% rule properties were all gone—but not in Toledo. The city has a great infrastructure and a strong manufacturing presence. People are hardworking and resilient. There’s tons of inventory at realistic prices. From my experience, these factors are the secret sauce for a long-term growth investor.

My family absolutely loves the city, and we are fortunate to call it home. We look forward to growing in the area and connecting with the real estate community. Please shoot me a PM if you would like to chat or just say hi.

All the best,

Phillip Dakhnovets
