My other rental people ask for a lower price and I meet in the middle.

Appreciation is just the cherry on top.The last few years Toledo somewhat caught up with appreciation but I believe we are capped now.It's a slow moving market and always behind the rest of the country.There is just not enough demand/infrastructure growth like in other markets to support continued appreciation.Historical data shows the Toledo market appreciating at the pace of inflation which is nothing to brag about hehe.IMO, it's a cashflow play and you should consider building a larger portfolio because it will be safer.Owning 1-2 properties can be a "hit and a miss" and really not the providers or PM's fault.There is a high likelihood of turnover so it's important to build a larger portfolio.If you experience "drama" on 1 or 2 properties, the other 4-5 are performing and can subsidize any losses incurred on the few that temporarily aren't performing.Wishing you much success

It's somewhere in the middle. 

Income not keeping pace with housing prices will be a huge factor for multi-generational house holds & house hacking. 

I would recommend joining Pace's Subto mentorship right away.

If you really want to purchase out of state, try to purchase without selling this property because it would be a shame to sell an asset in a prime location in exchange for a secondary or tertiary market in the middle of nowhere.In the long run your overall appreciation and cashflow will be higher than just about any market you decide to go to. 

Hi all, I'm new to the forums and open to feedback/advice on building/investing in Western NC.Some background on me, I've Lived-In rehabbed and made decent returns on 8 houses (lost most of it in a old divorce so in the middle of a restart to try to actually retire in the next 10-15 yrs).

Wholesale deal, it was extremely fast paced and had to move quickly on securing the HML and acquiring the funds needed to close.

I'm also sorry that we let you down mate.God Bless 🙏Engelo,Thank you for the kind words, and I'm glad I can help out a fellow small business owner.For the record, I grew up in a lower-middle class family and I can confidently say that no one would accuse me of having grown up with a silver spoon in my mouth.

Saying yes to their request can/will put you in the middle of any financial disagreements between the two of them.
