My in laws want to transfer their property from their name to ours.

For me personally with the lessons I have learned - I would build capital before buying anything to hold / flip.

If you're looking for ways to accelerate, consider these options:Seller Financing – Some sellers may finance a portion of the purchase price, reducing your need for a large down payment.DSCR Loans – These loans focus on property cash flow rather than personal income, often requiring only 15% down.Private Money Lenders – If you can find a PML willing to work with you, you may be able to put less down.Partnerships – If you’re open to splitting profits, you could bring in a partner who funds the down payment.Since you’re okay with the slower path, just keep stacking cash, but these might be worth exploring to move faster!

Hi Ven, I personally consider properties that at least cash flow with full occupancy. 

Being in Dallas gives you the advantage of doing your due diligence in person, which is invaluable.

Connect with a housing coordinator if that position is available in your area and stay in contact with that person. 

LeeMy name is Adam King.

Strong rental demand: With major employers like the Cleveland Clinic and University Hospitals, along with a growing arts and culture scene, Cleveland attracts a steady stream of renters.Revitalization efforts: Many areas of Cleveland are experiencing significant revitalization, which can lead to increased property values and appreciation potential.I can't comment on the Detroit market specifically, I have never been and have never done any research on it!

From my research on Zillow, I'm seeing a duplex that has for about $311 per month in that area so not sure if $42 is the most accurate number for monthly taxes.

Personally, I’ve been exploring opportunities where growth patterns and infrastructure expansion hint at future value increases.
