It's been a great privilege to work with the City of Maple Heights to establish the egress window codes in alignment with the Ohio Building Codes, so the residents can begin to have safe and beautifully renovated properties when there is such a need.

Honestly, that is all the insurance company needs to report the loss and raise your insurance next year.Good Investing...

I'm originally from Western PA as well (Slippery Rock) and now reside in Atlanta.Here is how I am looking at it along with the assumptions I am making:1) I think the growth prospects are better in the Atlanta market than Pittsburgh from a pure demographics standpoint.2) I estimate your return on equity at 7.2% currently3) Over the long haul appreciation is going to take you further when it comes to net worth than cashflow will4) Doubling of the roofs is doubling the expensesThings to consider:1) What is the year built of your Atlanta property vs. what you could replace it with in PGH?

I have purchased a 4 plex with hard money as well as used my HELOC from primary residence.

If you are having trouble finding a resident, there is another issue.

But on the other hand, if the seller wants close to retail, but there are a bunch of major issues, then it's just not going to work as a BRRRR.but i am going to be honest - i think from looking at your other posts that you are trying to BRRRR out of state, and so this question makes me nervous for you. 

I don’t think we will see 3% rates any time soon if you want me to be honest with you.
