Looking forward to seeing where your journey takes you!

I own a 4plex where I live in one and rent the other 3. 

I would assume a greater emphasis on quality of materials and workmanship (and consequently higher rehab cost) for a rental where the investor will have to deal with the longer term implications of any corners that were cut.

We have a solution for this where you do not need to wait to cash-out at normal 30-year interest rates!

Your wish list is more like a $350k property in Lakewood, Cleveland Heights, University Heights,Shaker Heights, et al.It's time to re-evaluate what is most important, and then work backwards to figure out the locations where you can achieve the desired result. 

I'm not sure exactly where you're located, but according to HUD, the fair market rent for a 3-bedroom in St.

Many of the investors that I work with are from the West coast or the Northeast and it just doesn't make sense for them to invest around where they live.  

Assuming an only child situation where you’re not screwing a sibling.

I can's imagine a situation where all 4 tenants have elected to hand wash their clothes and use the dryer (there is no utility sink in the laundry room).Can you think of any reasons why the dryer would be used that much more/washer used that much less?...

House needs some Interior Cosmetic Work, Wood Fence Repairs and some Plumbing Work.I want to turn and run, but I recently heard where there is a Problem, there is Opportunity.I thought this might be an interesting Case Study.Thanks for the Ideas.If they owe $180k on a $210k property and its a year+ behind then they probably owe taxes and other bills as well.
