Jenna, Findlay can be a fantastic spot for buy and hold investors.. especially if you’re after dependable cash flow in a smaller market.

You'll be able to spot out a real one from a fake.

That’s part of what drove me toward the luxury angle, catering to a niche market that’s currently underserved.Your point about local demand alignment is spot-on.

Absolutely spot on here John.

I’ve heard a lot about BRRRR, fix-and-flip, and rental properties, but I’m curious about what’s working for you all right now.I know from talking to people that some have gotten into bad deals while using their own money, and I’m worried that using bank funding and ending up in a bad deal could make things even worse—not just for the investment but for the relationship with the bank as well.I’m just trying to make sure my clients use this funding in the right way, without getting themselves into a tough spot.

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.

Use your superior knowledge, experience and analytical ability to spot something in a property being offered for sale that everyone else has missed.  

With a 3-5% down FHA loan, I snagged a cozy home in a hot spot, worked from home to play handyman, and created a hedge against the "what-ifs" of life.

Sure, you could be fully occupied today, but if you’ve got a week of downtime between tenants, your yearly occupancy for that unit is actually 98%, not 100%.That being said, I know there is a sweet spot for LTR and STR and I assume there's a sweet spot for MTR.

It's a great spot in my opinion, especially for retirees.
