I’m looking to collaborate with others like myself who are starting out and needing help, whether it is actual physical help with a renovation or moral support.

The real question is can your sales support the rent? 

Although I'm based in Columbus, Ohio, not Jacksonville, I’d be happy to support you on your journey in any way I can.

A link to FilePlace is at the bottom of every page, so it is easy to find.If you have technical issues, send an email to support@biggerpockets.com and someone will help you.

Abating the odor (tobacco and Marijuana) is costly and time consuming. 

We have high personal income with no consumer debt, so conventional loans are typically more favorable and DTI hasn't been an issue.

The number is ticking up but Ohio is still fine in vast majority of cases - anything over loan balance of $110,223 (2024 limit) doesn't apply - since most DSCR lenders have minimums around $100k loan amount, barely affects thingshttps://com.ohio.gov/divisions-and-programs/financial-institutions/consumer-finance/guides-and-resources/loan-prepayment-penalty-and-adjustment#:~:text=Effective%20January%201%2C%202024%2C%20no,loan%20of%20less%20than%20%24110%2C223.

We were particularly interested in this deal because it involved a light rehab, which is less complex and time-consuming compared to more extensive renovations.

For example a 5 acre lot is not worht 5x a 1acre lot if it can only support one home.

So free houses will be a while, but I do worry about a shift in the job market.My gut feeling is we will see unemployment depart from the ultra low 3.9% it is now in the next couple months, which has more to do with consumer spending than with AI.
