@Chris Mahoo many new investors don't take the time to properly understand RE investing.1) Many are using approaches from 2010-2018 when Class A property prices were so low from the Great RE Crash that an investor could cashflow and get pretty easy Class A tenants to manage.2) If you look at what investors were doing before 2008-2010, most were buying Class B & C rentals.To make it worth while, an investor either needs to Fix & Flip or invest & hold rentals for 10+ years.- Over a 10 year period cashflow will increase as rents increase (rents typically rise faster than property taxes, insurance, etc.)- The property should be appreciating, if purchased in a good location, increasing the owner's equity/wealth.- Rents will be paying the mortgage off, increasing the owner's equity/wealth.- If you hold a rental until death, you can pass it on with a stepped-up cost basis, limiting captial gains if then sold (limited by inheritance tax limitations).Too many newbies on this site trying to replace their day job income via "passive" real estate investing w/o digging deep enough to understand how it really works.

There are also several funds out there that provide high single digit yields that are low risk. 

You may have an advantage since there is very low deal volume in your area, and may have multiple bidders.Good luckGino

I'm wondering if a BLOC could help to build my business credit.

Rents have been pretty close to what the housing authorities advertise, sometimes even a bit higher.Fort Wayne’s a solid spot with low taxes and good cash flow—definitely worth looking into.

After all rape is just the word of the victim that it was not consensual sex, breaking and entering, well the door was already broken, every theft, every credit card fraud, well the owner said I could. 

That's not worth 15% of the job.Another thing to consider is that some managers will charge low management fees and then add maintenance fees to bring in more income, while others charge high, all-inclusive management fees.

However, there's a loss on the 2023 Tax Returns, and Net Income is $45,000 in 2022 (Client has lots of writeoffs) What loans could I use that only consider:- Bank Statements - 1099s - Credit Score Please contact me with options.

Your estimate seems low, but even at that cost, it will not add that value.  

Buy low sell high..
