@Brandon Sturgill, @Robert Ellis,

I am neither architect nor engineer, but I have worked closely with engineers most of my career in military and industrial contracting. I'm actually a certified Quality Control Manager for military construction. I have used that certification exactly one time - on a demolition project on a military facility LOL. I have some experience with CAD, mostly assisting engineers on landfill construction plans. Super sexy CAD work, like design drawings for drainage ditches and culverts LOL. It's enough knowledge to put together a kitchen design that clearly communicates what I want, though I don't know the architectural symbology for things like electrical outlets and plumbing fixtures. I just drew a picture of an electrical outlet where I want one to go LOL. I'm sure they can understand what I want.

I am still collecting bids. My project kinda' ballooned when I spent some time in the house and took a hard look at things. Roofing work is needed, which I did not anticipate. Also, I need two new entry doors and to replace leaking windows in the basement. ...things like that. My goal right now is to bring the property up to market level and take care of these latent maintenance issues while keeping the cost under the amount I expect the appraised value to increase after the project is complete. I think the bidders on this project are slow to send me their estimates because there are just so many separate project elements. I have been in contact with most of them, and they all assure me they are planning to send me numbers soon. I have so far received two estimates from eight walk-throughs. I expect to receive at least three more.

I could do this all much more cheaply and simply if I was committed to holding this property as a rental for the long term, but a flip is my exit strategy, so trying to bring the property up to the level for the sale market, making everything more complicated and expensive than it otherwise would be. 

Best,

Jon

Hi,

Thanks for sharing. I know it's been a while, any updated about how did the flip project go? Did you find a good GC to do the job? Was it finished on time within and the budget? 

I would love to get those referrals if it did, finding a good GC in Columbus seems more difficult than anticipated.

Thanks

Thanks for the answer! 

What about state income tax? 

Am I obliged to pay at the country of LLC's origin? Even if the income was generated elsewhere?

Hi all,

I am trying to understand if I should use my OH-based LLC to invest in Memphis, or should I establish another LLC in Tennesee. Holding an LLC in OH is simple with no annual fees etc, but I understand that it is a different story in TN.

What is the meaning of operating in TN with an OH LLC? I need to register my LLC as I am "transacting business" by buying rental property and generating income. But do I also need to oblige with all other requirements of an LLC established in TN?

Thanks

Hi everybody,

I'm happy to be a part of the amazing community. The knowledge I received from reading posts and comments are invaluable and are helping me build the system I need to financial freedom.

My name is Yuval and I'm 32-years old rental property investor from Tel-Aviv, Israel. I have decided to invest out of my country due to regulations on investors and price affiliation that are making the journey to financial freedom much much slower (though not impossible). The main issues I deal with when trying to invest in the US are financing and time differences causing me to work a "second shift" restarting my day at 2 PM.

I own 3 rental properties back home and truly appreciate the power of passive income, equity buildup through mortgage amortization, and price affiliation. It helped me reach 40-50% of my passive income goal. I'm looking for connections in Cleveland Ohio and would like to start from a solid, cash deal SF rental property.

I have read a lot, heard dozens of BP podcasts, and countless posts, and I feel ready to jump into my first deal in the US. Looking forward to this exciting journey and trying to enjoy the way to the finish line as well as the crossing itself.

 Welcome aboard Yuval. When looking at Cleveland you'll want to check out The Ultimate Guide to Grading Cleveland Neighborhoods. It's a due diligence great starting point.

 Still learning how to quote correctly :)

Hope you saw my previous comment, I'd love to hear what you think!

Thanks, @James Wise for sharing your guide. I saw you have made those for other locations also.

I'm seeing that property tax is uniquely high in Cleveland, and in combination with relatively high city regulations and involvement, makes this market an interesting choice for new investors. What do you think?

The risk of paying 25% of gross income as tax, just to get an inspection from the city that will disqualify your rent registration, seems risky when you have only a few properties. Am I correct?

Post: Good BRRRR markets for under $80k

@Jordan Rhoads BRRRR works in literally any market on the planet, you just have to find a good deal, add value be all in for 75% of the ARV. If you can't find a BRRRR deal in your market you're probably not looking at enough deals or making enough offers. People BRRRR with 2 cap rate properties in NYC. Cash flow on the other hand is a different story, but if you can create equity and have any cash flow that's a win in my book. But just remember as well, even on a more expensive property, if you create 50k of equity in a more expensive property, that equity can eventually be 1031d into multifamily down the road that will give you a better return on that equity

I couldn't agree more. And I would also like to add, that once you dig deep into a specific market (zipcode even) and connect with people who have boots on the ground, you can find deals that will qualify for BRRRR in almost any market. Especially today when cash buyers with fast closing are even more attractive to some sellers.

You still need to search for those market characteristics in my opinion:

1. The market is hot enough for you to be able to find a tenant quickly and move to the next deal.

2. There are a lot of likewise properties that might be able to qualify for a future BRRRR deal.

3. In general, the market in affiliating in a way that will support equity growth over time and allow you to refinance and cash out more equity for future deals after your system is in place.
