7 August 2024 | 17 replies
And if you have a property and a loan out there, and you are cash flow negative because a recession hits and rents are dropping, AND values are ticking down month after month, how long are you going to fight through, especially as a newer operator, before you call it quits, take your lumps, and move on.At the end of the day, there is money out there.

Maria Sophia Auction Bought / Past owner refuse to move out

from what i know it usually takes about 6 weeks for the entire process, if you file for eviction you can usually get the home back, these situations are hard, more often then not the homeowner doesnt know their homes were ever put into auction and lose their homes, but usually with talking to the previous homeowner and proving you are the rightful owner you can get the home back, or at least negotiate them to leave cash for keys , if that doesnt work then file for eviction or notice to quit

Kevin Goldman All Cash or Loan

Hi Kevin,I'm a big fan of buying with cash and my thought process is quite contrary to everyone else's.Cash is KingCashflow is QueenLeverage can be a peasant lolOne can retire investing in Toledo with $1m in cash.Off-course, this all depends on how many villages you need to feed 🤓I have too many "villagers" on my back so it's a bit of a different story for me.Sub $100,000 markets like Toledo require volume to work and to be worth the risk if you are looking to buy and hold.Not much growth potential long term so I would consider it a strict cashflow play.Start slow and small and you can always scale up once you learn the market.Or call it quits and exit if you decide it's not for you.IMO, leverage should only be used to scale a portfolio and only after you have immersed yourself enough in a specific market.And only once you have decided that you want to stick around in that specific market and invest in it long term.Over the years, I've witnessed many folks use leverage and attempt BRRRR out of state only to fall short and say "the market sucks and it doesn't work".Nothing works unless you make it work and a market like Toledo can work better than any other market I know from a cashflow perspective.I've been investing since 2014 and flipped hundreds along with currently managing 400 SFH.Only this year have I started buying small multifamily properties.It's an adjustment and a different animal but let's just say it's in the same breed of animal lolImmerse yourself in a specific market and become an "expert" on the numbers in that market.Find off market deals, negotiate hard, buy with cash and buy quickly.You make money when you buy and not when you sell so you must buy cheap.There are many ways to skin a cat mate and this is how I get my fur lolWishing you much success
