It would take you a life time of cash flow in Ohio to get that return.I would strongly advise you against paying cash for a $100k property.

I can sell it at any time for a profit, so I'm hoping to let it run and pay for itself for a while before we make another decision on it.

You can build your own team i.e. title co, insurance, pm, contractors, handyman,process server, lender etc.... or you can find an operator who can get you going in that market while simultaneously building out your team.Section 8 housing is a great way to ensure consistency with rent payments however not all tenant who have HCV pay 0%.

The LLC is irrelevant unless you are paying cash or getting a DSCR loan.

The training is pretty thorough focused on lending hard/private money to other fix and flip investors, or for my own deals for which I could pay myself as the loan broker.

The tenant fails to pay their last month's rent and leaves the place needing new flooring and paint.

G'Day Alejandro,As a few have already mentioned, take a peak at Toledo also.In my opinion lower potential for long term appreciation but solid/"boring" cashflow.I prefer my portfolio to be "boring" but cashflowing lolLow entry points (Sub $100,000), high rents (Above the 1% rule).Blue collar working class decent folks that will stay and pay.Depending on the area but no derelict homes, yards well kept, cars with wheels and all tenants are employed.Plus, all are sophisticated enough to pay rent online so property management doesn't have to collect rents with bullet proof vests and shot guns lolI'm bias toward Toledo but it's worth considering.Wishing you much success

Instead of paying into someone else’s property, you could be using that allowance to finance your own real estate investment.In Germany, you have access to a stable market with long-term growth potential, and U.S. service members and government civilians have unique advantages here.

Yes, we will have a loss for 2024.Then it should be easy enough to have your attorney just change it and pay any required taxes/fees.

I understand I'd take a pay cut being an agent for the first few years, but in exchange, I'd be learning about the market and building a network as I move towards Commercial multifamily.
