JeffWe lead a couple investor meet up groups in person and live stream about the Central Ohio real estate market.

I spend roughly $120k on my renovations, but this is for the entire property and developing the secondary suite which certainly costs more (2 new furnaces, all new plumbing, new kitchens and bathrooms with tiled floors and showers).All said and done, I personally love it.

Some high-end STR's (like in Joshua Tree) do use professional models, but for your market and property type, I’d suggest removing personal photos and focusing on the space itself, so guests can imagine themselves there, which is really what you want.You also have 81 photos, that’s too many.

Others may have personal experience to share.

Nice to connect 😎Its in Joliet - Cathedral area I hope to meet you in person as well?

Hi Esther, I personally as a property manager in Los Angeles have a process when it comes to tenants not paying rent.

Hey Makani, you should check out DSCR loans, which are primarily for investment properties and focus on the property’s income potential rather than your personal income.

I bought this property with a private interest free loan from a friend. the person i bought it from need cash fast so i offered them a low cash offer and they accepted.I had enough money saved up to rehab the house with my savings.

This does not seem realistic to have a credit score of 580 if a person doesn’t even have a SSN. 

I personally leverage, but have a large rainy day fund.
