@Nicholas Nakamurain order to be successful, you will need to build a network on the ground in Ohio with people you know and trust. buying a random property on the MLS in unknown condition based on other people looking at it, and putting it under management with people you have never met, will not work, and you will lose money.https://www.biggerpockets.com/forums/963/topics/1195280-expe...https://www.biggerpockets.com/forums/48/topics/1137397-balti...so - what's your plan? 

I agree local banks and credit unions will be better if you're planning on growing your portfolio. 

@Dustin Horner 10 units probably won't even cover PT.Unless you plan to scale to 50+ units, you're probably better off hiring a PMC.

I think you have a good plan, BRRRR is still a great route in the current market, and especially for the states you are already in - both Indiana and Georgia are very well positioned for BRRRR deals in my view / experience

My client plan is to demolish and do new construction within 1 year.

However, it was not something that we planned on and I did not have any sort of communication prior to with that particular poster planning to highlight their services. good point Joe will have to see if I can see that kind of behavior..

My Realtor did most of the work for me on this deal, as I told him what I wanted and what my plans were.

You want this to be your backup plan if things take longer than anticipated, you do not want to dip into personal credit cards so i would use a heloc to help with down payment but try to keep a nice available balance on a heloc as your insurance policy. 

This deal showcased how strategic planning, targeted improvements, and a strong partnership could deliver impressive returns.

Hi Jennifer - Am planning to invest in the Cincinnati OH area looking on the east side.
