Better to renovate a distressed property in the Toledo area than build new.

I found it pretty easy to build an OOS portfolio in Toledo since 2019. Were a lot more deals back then and a lot of market appreciation along the way. If I was starting today don't know if I would be successful. #1 lesson avoid C or D class areas only buy B.

I get a credit in my state for taxes paid to Ohio. Don’t know if California offers that. Also don’t forget to file your City of Toledo tax return.

Quote from @James Wise:

Should Boston landlords rent their properties to Section 8 tenants? Section 8 tenants get a bad rap in Boston, Massachusetts. A lot of Boston landlords think Section 8 tenants are the worst. However, there are a lot of times when renting your property out to a Section 8 tenant makes a lot more sense than renting it out to a tenant who doesn't have Section 8. When your rental property is located in a low quality area, a high crime area, or a low income area, it makes the most sense to rent your property out to Section 8 tenants because they pose a lower level of risk than the typical cash paying tenants in that area do. Cash paying tenants in these areas tend to need to be evicted often because their income isn't consistent and they often stop paying the rent. However, when your rental property is in an area of town that attracts a higher quality of tenant who has a lower risk profile than the tenants in the low quality areas do, it doesn't make any sense to rent your property out to a Section 8 tenant, because Section 8 tenants are generally more abusive to your rental property than high quality cash paying tenants are. Tune in to HoltonWiseTV for more tips on making money investing in Section 8 rental properties in the Boston real estate market.

I love the technology the makes moving money easier (apple pay, venmo). Haven’t carried cash in years. Switching to a whole different currency I don’t see a point in personally. 


 XRP is supposedly going to make wire transfers a lot easier and cheaper. Could be a good one to watch and it's only ~$2.50 right now... Trump's "Crypto and AI Czar" David Sacks seems to really like XRP. 


 I do hate $25-$30 wire transfer fees
