Hey Ryan Nelson I don't actually know much of anything about using a 401k to invest (that's an area i haven't tried to learn yet) but try the search bar on the upper right corner and see what pops up!

We had a house that was pink and gray brick and just could not stand it.

The tiles in the hall bath were retro pink and we gave them a completely new look.

You can loan him the money and take out a mortgage on the property, but you will be in second position and he can keep borrowing against the property or make any changes he chooses like painting it pink.

Cincy rents have a lot of room to increase compared to similar metros and we're starting to see people put out a better product (e.g. updating those ugly pink or green bathroom tiles) and commanding higher rents.  

-BONUS: Some of the properties have a bar on the ground floor, what should I consider before being a landlord to a bar?

I have never seen any rental property with keyless entry on the back patio door, but my tenant is asking for it.This is what I found out when I searched up TX requirement for rental properties-"Every rental unit in Texas should be equipped with the following security devices at the time that the tenant takes possession of the unit:One window latch on each exterior window in the dwelling;A doorknob lock or keyed deadbolt on each exterior door*;A keyless bolting device (i.e. a keyless deadbolt) on each exterior door**;A door viewer on each exterior door;A sliding door pin lock AND either a handle latch or a security bar on each exterior sliding glass door."

We try to set a high-bar on our rehab work.

Thanks for the input @Joe Baron!
